18 Bachelorette Activities & Non-Drinking Bachelorette Party Ideas
If your bestie is getting married, you’ll want to plan the ultimate girls night out (or in) before she ties the knot. Planning this party should be centered on bachelorette activities that the bride likes to do.
No matter the bride-to-be’s taste in activities, every woman deserves an awesome experience with her closest friends for her bachelorette party.
To help you plan, here are some non-drinking bachelorette party ideas and fun bachelorette games and activities to celebrate the bride.
11 Non-Drinking Bachelorette Party Ideas
Low- and no-alcohol celebrations are becoming more popular, and yet it can still feel difficult to think of non-drinking bachelorette party ideas.
Here are our favorite suggestions for booze-free fun for the bride and her crew.
1. Glamping
Glamping is exactly what it sounds like—where luxury meets nature with glamorous camping. It’s perfect for gals who love the outdoors but also amenities.
There are tons of destinations and upgrades from tents including cabins, teepees, and even clear domes overlooking Mother Nature.
Glamping has everything that camping has to offer, but you still get to enjoy showers, electricity, and toilets.
However, feel free to opt for a regular camping experience if that's more the bride's style. Sometimes it’s nice to get off the grid!
2. Spa day
Everyone loves to feel like royalty and be pampered.
Hit an all-inclusive spa with the girls and enjoy a day full of massages, facials, and pedicures. There is no better way to celebrate the leisure-loving bride than relaxing with the crew.
3. Classic sleepover
Reminisce on the good old days with a sleepover.
Throw on matching pajamas, order food or hire a private chef, and get the ingredients for DIY drinks like mocktails, milkshakes, and root beer floats.
Of course, decorations and games are a MUST! In true slumber party fashion, make sure to have a rule about the consequences of falling asleep first...
4. Set sail before the veil
If the bride is a water-loving woman, a private boat charter or weekend cruise vacation could be the perfect way to send her on her journey into marriage.
A cruise is an easy, affordable way to everyone together for a destination bachelorette party that is all-inclusive with food and activities—planning made simple!
5. Fairytale bachelorette
Is the bride-to-be a Disney fan? This is the perfect fun and unique bachelorette excursion to kick off a Happily Ever After. Spend the day at the happiest place on earth with the crew and feel like the princesses you all are.
Disney and other theme parks are filled with exciting rides, bites, and sips, so you're guaranteed to make memories you won’t forget.

6. Garden tour
For a relaxing day in nature, bring the green-thumbed bride and friends on a tour through nearby gardens.
To make an adventure out of it, arrange for a limo or party bus to bring everyone to and from. End the day with a late lunch or afternoon tea to continue the garden party fun.
7. Beach babes
Sun and sand make a great setting for a bachelorette party.
Rent a beach house and stay oceanside for a long weekend. Include activities like kayak rentals or a beach picnic in your plans for the perfect itinerary.

8. Hike it out
If the bride is more of a mountain babe, map out a hiking excursion for a non-drinking bachelorette party filled with fresh air and incredible views.
Simply have the group wear similar outfits if you want to stay cohesive, and don't forget to take tons of pictures at the summit!

9. Showtime
Depending on the bride's taste in entertainment, there are a variety of shows you can plan the bachelorette party around.
Be it one of her favorite musicians, a play or Broadway show, or perhaps a drag show, comedy show, art show, or other cultural experience—the bride will love a night where they are wow-ed.
Make meal reservations beforehand, and plan to dish on the show with everyone afterwards.
10. Yoga retreat
Wellness is always a good idea, and a weekend full of yoga and meditation could be just what the bride needs amidst stressful wedding planning.
Everyone will want to feel their best at the wedding, and this will be a great start.
11. Karaoke party
Does the bride love to belt out Beyoncé?
Sing your heart out at a local karaoke club or buy a machine for an at-home shindig. Most Korean karaoke venues rent out private rooms for groups as well—perfect for personalized experiences (and shy singers!).
What to sing? We suggest Spice Girls or anything empowering. Make sure you take videos; these will make for great (and hilarious) memories later!
7 Fun Bachelorette Activities & Games
1. Lingerie menu
With this game, each person buys the bride a lingerie gift and puts a sexy name for the item on the gift tag.

Tarot cards are fun, and you don’t have to be a psychic to know that.
Order a set of cards and get ready to learn what the future holds. Most cards come with a booklet on the meaning of each card.
4. Forbidden words
Every time someone says the “forbidden words"—such as “wedding” or “married"—they have to take a shot. This is a great way to start off the night.
5. Drinking games
For those who want booze at the bachelorette, drinking games are a classic way to start the party.
Never Have I Ever, Flip Cup, and Beer Pong are three that most people know.

6. Scavenger hunt
Create a scavenger hunt to do while the group is bar hopping or out on the town.
This scavenger hunt can be used to showcase the bride and groom’s relationship—imagine trying to find someone that the groom will look like in 30 years!
7. Guess the giver
Each member of the squad buys the bride a pair of panties, but make sure you don’t write who it is from! It’s more fun when the bride has to guess who gave the piece of lingerie to her.
This game is a fun way for everyone to show their personalities—the panties can be funny, sexy, sweet, etc.
