Homemade Bachelorette Games

Homemade bachelorette games are simple but fun.

Bachelorette parties are parties held prior to a wedding, for women who are getting married. These parties are usually thrown by the maid of honor and are either done in a private setting such as a home or as a night out on the town. If you are the matron of honor and the job of planning the bachelorette party rests on your shoulders, you can plan a fun event with minimal fuss by utilizing simple, homemade bachelorette games.

• 1 cup wheat paste powder

Instructions

Trivia Games

1. Create questions that are as clean or naughty as you want them to be. Find out information about the bride from her family and turn what you learn into questions for the guests to answer.

2. Consult the groom prior to the party and ask him questions about himself, the bride and their relationship, such as how they met or what his favorite color is. Write his answers down and at the party ask the bride the same questions; compare how alike or different their answers are.

3. Ask guests personal questions pertaining to marriage or intimacy and have them jot their answers down on a slip of paper. Collect the papers and read off the answers. Have people guess who said what.

Kiss the Hunk

1. Hang up a large poster of a sexy man. Your poster guy should be shirtless and wearing nothing more than his underwear.

2. Draw lips on pink or red construction paper and cut out enough lips so that each of your guests will have at least two tries. Place double-sided tape on the back of each of the lips.

3. Cover the bachelorette's and guests' eyes using a scarf or blindfold. Spin the player a couple of times and let them place the lips on the poster to see who has the most accurate aim in placing her lips on designated parts of the hunk's body. Give each body part on the poster a rating and whomever gets the highest rating wins.

Pinata

1. Use balloons, newspaper and homemade paper mache paste made from wheat paste powder and water, or flour and water, to craft a pinata.

2. Follow the directions to make a simple balloon-shaped pinata, or be creative and make a more suggestive pinata.

3. Fill the pinata with candy; add provocative shaped candies or trinkets if you choose. Hang the pinata from a sturdy rope, blindfold guests and allow them to take a swing at the pinata to see who can break it open.

The “Never Have I” Game

1. Instruct your guests sit in a circle on the floor. Give each guest a glass and set a bottle of wine or some other alcohol in the center of the circle.

2. Write down statements that start with “Never Have I” on separate note cards or pieces of paper. Place the folded paper inside a basket. Set the basket in the middle of the circle next to the wine.

3. Ask each of your guests pull a statement from the basket and read it out loud. If that guest has actually done what is on the card she must have a drink. Continue around the circle until all of the statements have been read.

Tips & Warnings

• Don't allow guests that have been drinking to drive home. Make certain that all of your guests have a designated driver.
