    spa day, concert, sporting event, Dave & Busters, pajama party, movie night, hiking...

    It would help more to know what she enjoys doing.
    "Trix, it's what they/our parents wanted. Why so judgemental? And why is your wedding date over a year and a half ago? And why do you not have a groom's name? And why have you posted over 12,000 posts? And why do you always say mean things to brides?" palegirl146

    I took my best friend on a white water rafting trip, we spent the night at a really nice cabin (there were 10 girls all together) and then the next day we gave her a list of items to find (like toothbrush, wrench, blue sox...just really random things, along with essential items like a bathing suit) which completly confused her. We blindfolded her and then brought her to the rafting site.

    We spent the whole day going down rapids, and they even had a picnic set up for us to eat along side the river.

    At night we all got dressed up and went out (where your sister-in-law is underage, a night out dancing at an 18+ club or even a nice dinner could be good)

    You can really base it on whatever she likes. If she likes spas, do that..or dancing...or ghost tours... it's really just catering the event to something the bride will love

    good luck!

    My friends are taking me to an outdoor country concert the weekend before my wedding.  They're a lot of fun and it'll be different from the typical bar night bachelorette party.  I'm going to wear a cowgirl hat that says bride to be on it:)

    I don't know where you live, but a trip over the border for the night might be fun. Mexico or Canada, so she can drink if she wants. PLus you could go sight seeing or shopping. That would be really fun, I think.

    What is the bride to be interested in?  My bridesmaids know how much I love the Chicago Cubs, so they've rented out a rooftop for a Cubs game.  I couldn't be happier!

    My friend got married 2 years ago- at the time she was only 19, so for her bachelorette party, we all chipped in on a hotel suite, went out to dave and busters, when we came back to the hotel- we ordered room service, we did face masks, spent some time in the hot tub and the sauna. We watched movies the notebook and monster in law- opened gifts and just had a good time. Hope this helps.

    Some other ideas are have a sushi chef come to your place and teach your group how to make sushi, Home Depot and Lowe's offer classes on home maintenance things, like painting, laying tile, etc, so that might be a good idea, jewelry party, we took a sailboat road out of Boston, or maybe dinner cruises, you could buy supplies from Michaels to make some cool jewelry. Hope the ideas help, and I am sure you will come up with something great!!
    Have fun!

    I threw a "Liquor &  Lace" anti-shower for my girlfriend.  She didn't want a traditional shower as it was going to be held in the evening.  She also wanted something sexy and fun so this fit the bill well.  You could have a signature drink to serve and the gifts and prizes could reflect the theme (they are either sexy lingerie or bar accessories or actual liquor).  I know this is for a bachelorette party so you could really get crazy!  Plus, any gifts that are given to the bride-to-be can be super sexy and fun.  I'm sure her husband-to-be won't have a problem with this either!

    Another option is to base the bachelorette party around the honeymoon they have planned.  Depending on where they are going, you could serve apps and drinks before hand, then go to a restaurant that specializes in the kind of food that is served there (ie: Spanish cuisine, Italian food, or Carribean fare) and then hit up a club for some dancing.  If you could find a place that could also teach everyone a few steps that reflect the theme (ie: Flamenco dancing) it would just add to the fun.

    Good luck!

    We are considering doing a pole dancing class. Maybe a concert. I would have also loved to go to a punk concert. A bowling night in theme costume. Think about her interests or if you dont know you can ask her what she wants. I asked when I was a MOH and I told my MOH ideas of things I would like and things I would not like.

    We're doing a weekend at the cabin... so my sister was thinking lost boys from Hook.  That's my favorite movie.

    Or a spa weekend with at-home stuff and lots of Golden Girls and Scrubs!  My favorite shows.  She's getting wedding episodes from a lot of different shows for "MOH inspiration" as she calls it. 

    Since I have lived with all of my BMs except for my FSIL, the Golden Girls seems to really fit.  And FSIL gets a huge kick of the show too, so she would love it.

    My sister/MOH and BMs won't stop talking about it.  And I don't mind hearing!
