Dilli Divas Live The Last Night Before The Ring With The Ultimate Guide To Your Bachelorette!
What’s better than your best friend’s wedding? Hell, your best friend’s bachelorette party of course! While the wedding may be an out and out family affair, the pre-party is your chance to pack a highlight reel of the single life into one night with the family you choose- your gal pals! We’re talking tequila, tiaras, toys and tabletops (not necessarily in that order).
Planning a bachelorette party can be quite an uphill task; you want to give your BFF an unadulterated night of a lifetime before she slips away into the bonds of holy matrimony, so go all out and make her wildest fantasies come true! Private parties, outdoor events, weekend getaways, spa retreats, there’s a plethora of options to choose from for the big night. We’re here to help you start from scratch:
(You could hire an event planner but where’s the fun in that? Carpe diem, ladies!)
Be a Trendsetter By Choosing A Fun Theme
The theme you pick will set the mood for the night and is your chance to win brownie points in the BFF department, so make sure that you touch upon something that is a personal favourite (of hers!). Need some inspo? Here are some straight outta the bride’s wish list.
1. Adrenaline Junkie

If she is a sports freak who loves her adrenaline rushes more than her Appletinis, then whisk her away to Rishikesh for some good ol’ white water rafting and cliff jumping or Goa for paragliding, scuba diving, wakeboarding and the rest. Low on time? Closer to home, there’s always a Mountain Climbing, Krav Maga or Acro Yoga session at Delhi Rock in GK-2.
2. P&Q Princess
Picture Credits: /noir.eventsq8/
Spoil her with a classic princess-themed slumber party, complete with elegant invitations adorned with glitter, luxurious satin robes, makeovers, a selection of fine wines and perhaps even a pink piñata and a surprise screening of Barbie to add a magical touch.
3. Vegas Bombshell
Picture Credits: platinumproprentals
Let loose your wild streak, hire strippers, take a pole dancing class, hash brownies, wet T-shirt contest, body shots, lingerie runway, the works. Time to get your sexy on! You know how it goes, what happens at a bachelorette party.
5. The Bollywood Bash
Is the bride-to-be a Bollywood diva at heart? Channelise her inner Poo with a Bollywood night that captures the glitz and glamour of B-town while cosplaying your Fav Characters, featuring a gram-worthy setup, a selection of exclusive drinks and of course, a Dance-off!
6. Surf n Turf
Straight out of the bride’s vision board! Recreate the Iconic Girl’s Trips from Cinema, be it The Trip, Veere Di Wedding, 4 more shots please. So get the gears out ‘cause it is time to cosplay your favourite characters and scenes from your favourite movie!
Get The Right Kinda Tools of the Trade
The right props can be instrumental in bringing alive your chosen theme. Whether you’re looking to scoop up furry handcuffs, Batwoman costumes and whips or sashes, crowns and cupcake stands, you can find ‘em at Wanna Party, Party In A BOX, Pretty UR Party, Fun Cart and other prop shops in the city.

Indulge In These Games That Are Not for the Faint-Hearted
1. Private Affairs
Exchange some scandalous revelations with ‘Never Have I Ever’ and ‘Spin The Bottle’, do a compatibility quiz (you gotta quiz the groom beforehand), a lap dance-off for the more adventurous ones in your crew or a lingerie guessing game (have all your invitees bring over a piece that reflects their personality and have the bride guess who!).
If you wish to go easy on your fav chica, then opt for ‘Few of My Favourite Things’, wherein you get the husband-to-be to fill in the answers to questions about her fav colour, vacation spot, best film etc.
2. Out in Public
Scavenger Hunts (bring back a fake tattoo, a phone number, a flavoured condom), a Hot Challenge for the bride, say picking up the hottest man on the dance floor or using a sex toy (cuffs qualify) on a stranger, beer pong, using an alias (well hello, Buttercup!). Get creative! Why should boys have all the fun? If you don’t mind getting down and dirty (literally), then we would recommend paintballing at Paintball n Co. located at Sector 31 in Gurgaon and Vivanta by TAJ in Surajkund.
