"Okay ladies, lets talk a little bit about how to plan a bachelorette party. This is girls night out, this is time to have a lot of fun and there is a lot of variables though a lot of ways you can go with it, what do you do, who do you bring, as far as who is invited to the bachelorette party this is usually a smaller group, friends, bridal party, this may not be the place for mom but, it depends on the mom so check with the bride and see how she feels about it who she wants invited. This is a girls night to have fun, now we all know the stereotypical version of a bachelorette party, which is fine, it can include a night of debauchery and the girls behaving very badly, a word of caution here, an exotic entertainer that comes into your home is going to behave very very differently than the type you see at a male review, so if your girl is not comfortable with a thong in her face you may not want to go that way. Male reviews are a lot of fun a lot of laughs your girl may or may not get up on stage that is a great way to go with that type of event. But what about the brides that don't want that type of event, they want a girls night but not like that, a lot of alternatives now a days from a basic spa day to a short cruise get a tight-knit group of girls together and go out on a three day cruise if you have that available in your area, it is a lot of fun, you can have a slumber party you can have a pajama party, you can have a casino night for the ladies, head out to Vegas or a local casino and be bad that way. Whatever you are doing, if there is drinking involved, make sure you have a designated driver, limousine someone who is not drinking that is really really important you want to think of that in advance. As far as footing the bill, this typically is a pay as you go party people are going to pay as they go along or if you are having an event at the house you will probably host it with you know a few other members of the bridal party. Oh one more thing ladies, have the bride wear a veil. Veil equals free drinks, veil equals free admission, okay I can't promise that everywhere you go, but I can tell you if she is wearing a veil you are going to be treated differently, they know you are a bachelorette party you are going to get that special VIP treatment. As you can see mine does not look like a traditional veil that is because I did not want a traditional veil, so talk to your bride, find out how far she wants to go, get a little crafty make something fun and have a good time."
