Bachelorette party ideas this year are a whole different game. The old formula of matching sashes and tequila shots? Still around, sure, but now brides and their crews are putting more thought into what the night (or weekend) really means. According to Business Insider, more groups are leaning into intentional, Instagrammable experiences that go beyond the party clichés.

What Bachelorette Parties Look Like Now

Bachelorette party ideas are getting bigger, more curated and a lot more personal. Brides are trading cookie-cutter plans for weekends that actually reflect what they want. They're leaning toward ideas that are less “one last fling” and more “best weekend ever with my favorite people.” And it's creating a booming industry. According to Business Insider, the bachelorette party market in the U.S. hit $650 million last year, fueled by serious spending on group costumes, custom favors and luxe experiences.

But it’s not just about the merch. TikTok has helped turn themes like “Final Fiesta” and “Disco Cowgirl” into full-on aesthetics, while Instagram is packed with reels from candle-making classes, boho dinners and group wellness sessions. According to WeddingWire’s trend report, overnight stays and travel-based celebrations are increasingly common, and planners are seeing more demand for itineraries that balance going out with downtime.

Even the money side is evolving. Some groups are now using Venmo or custom QR codes on invitations to split costs or crowdsource extras like surprise events or matching outfits. Brides say it’s an easier way to keep things fun without the awkward text threads — and with the rising price tag on celebrations, it helps ensure no one person ends up paying for it all.

Some crews go big with passport stamps, others stay local and get creative. Either way, it’s all about making it memorable, and yes, highly postable.

Unique Bachelorette Party Ideas

1. Paint and Sip

Paint and Sip classes are popping up everywhere, and they’ve become a go-to for creative bachelorette painting party ideas. They’re low-pressure, easy to plan and give everyone something fun (and slightly chaotic) to take home. Plus, sipping cocktails while you paint makes for a memorable night — even if the art is questionable.

Paint and sip in Los AngelesOrange County and Sacramento are especially popular, but plenty of cities have similar setups. If the group wants something more tactile, pottery classes are a great alternative that still delivers that satisfying mix of messy and memorable.

2. Bust Some Moves at a Dance Class

A dance class turns the usual bachelorette energy into something more exciting (and far less awkward than a bar shuffle). From belly dancing to pole dancing, these classes add just the right amount of cheeky fun and they double as prep for the wedding dance floor.

In-person dance classes in Los Angeles, Orlando or a city near you are perfect for a group night out, or if you're hosting your bachelorette party out of a hotel suite, you can stream online dance classes and turn it into a dance party with a playlist and snacks.

3. Book an Acting Class

Want a bachelorette party idea with a little drama? Go with group acting classes. It’s more fun than you’d expect. And if your bachelorettes don't really know each other, it's a really good way to break the ice.

You’ll laugh your way through improv scenes, bold characters and maybe even a dramatic reading of the bride’s texts. In-person classes are always fun, but for those who suffer from stage fright, there are always online classes. 

4. Attend a Comedy Show

For a bachelorette party idea that guarantees real laughs (not just the kind from inside jokes), head to a comedy show. Pair it with a pre-show dinner or late-night drinks to turn it into girls' night idea nobody will forget anytime soon.

5. Pick Some Pumpkins to Carve

If it’s fall, skip the wine tasting and hit the pumpkin patch instead. Pick out the best gourds, then carve them into some seriously ghoulish Jack-o-lanterns. Snack and maybe some mulled cider if you’re really leaning in should follow, wherever you're hosting.

6. Photo Shoot

Hire a photographer or rope in the group’s best iPhone camera pro. Bonus points for a creative location or matching outfits. You’ll have plenty of photos to remember the party, which make for great bachelorette party gifts!

7. Disneyland trip

10. Take a Glass Blowing Class

This classic game always brings out the unexpected. Keep it light, or steer it into spicy territory depending on your crowd. You can either pass around a deck of pre-made cards or make up the statements on the spot, such as “drink if you are blonde” or “drink if you are single.”

44. Ring Hunt

Organize a ring hunt at home, or possibly even at the hotel. Whether you choose toy rings, candy rings or cute casual rings, the bridesmaids will have a blast searching for these hidden gems, especially if there are younger ladies or junior bridesmaids. You can even offer a prize for the person who finds the most.

48. Name Whose Nail Polish

Everyone brings a bottle of nail polish with a name that best reflects their personality. Then, the bride-to-be tries to guess who brought which nail polish. After the game, you can then have an at-home manicure night.

49. Krazy Karaoke Night

After you’ve had a few drinks, find a local karaoke bar and sing your hearts out. The more you drink, the better your singing gets, right? If everyone is willing to be silly, it can easily become a wild and crazy karaoke night.

50. Guess the Panties

One of the more risque things to do for a bachelorette party is to play the “Guess the Panties” game. Everyone buys the bride a pair of underwear that reflects their personality, and she has to guess who gave which. 

After all the laughs and excitement, the bride will have a bunch of new underwear, too!

51. Bar Crawl Bingo

Bring the usual bachelorette bar crawl to the next level by turning it into bar crawl bingo. It’s a race to see who can fill their bingo card first.

Make a night out even more chaotic with bingo cards full of stuff like “person crying in the bathroom” or “free drink from a stranger.” First to win picks the after-party spot.

52. Prosecco Pong

It’s like beer pong, only much classier. Swap red solo cups for flutes and beer for bubbly. Still messy, still hilarious, just with better photos.

Pick a theme (rom-coms? 90s throwbacks?) and press play. Add drinking games, snacks and comfy loungewear for peak sleepover vibes.

57. Craft Night
