Bachelorette Party Help

My oldest daughter is getting married and her sister is her maid of honor and she is only 17 and the FI sister is a BM and 16.  Her sister wants to give her a BP. Not sure what to do for the party.  Of course her friends are older. So looking for something thats good for all.  The Bride only wants 1 party.

    What about a group activity, like golf or bowling?  Maybe some type of lesson, like cross-country skiing or tennis?  Followed by dinner, and lots of laughs about whatever activity they did.

    Have a day long excursion, (hiking, kayaking, horseback riding etc.)  and go out for an awesome dinner. 
    If the girls that are of age want to go out then they can go out after. If going out is not of interest you can always do an old school slumber party.

    I'd also suggest a spa day - the teenage girls will love it, as will the grown ups!  Perhaps you can get someone to come to the house, or take over a salon?  Manicures and pedicures are fun for all, followed by a nice dinner out!  Everyone will have fun.

    PP's all have great suggestions.  I've also heard of going rock climbing or taking some sort of class (pottery, dance, ect)

    I was a BM for a girl who had 2 underage BMs, we went to a restaurant with all the girls, the MOB, the MOG and a couple other important 'mom' type figures in her life and had a lovely time... and then after the over 21 and under 30 year olds went bar hopping. It was a really great night for everyone!

    Is there a Painting with a Twist business near you? Everyone I've ever heard of going to it, which is pretty much every I know, loves it and they all have a blast. Could go to a hibachi grill before or after also.

    I'm in the same boat, my younger sister is 14 years old and my maid of honor.
    I'm having a girls night in party. I have a couple fun people like Dove Chocolate, a designer bag lady, Mary Kay, Lia Sophia Jewelry, and more coming! Aside from the free goodies, it's a party for all ages! PLUS, if my friends decide to order from some of those vendors, I'm going to use the discounts, and freebies for gifts to my bridesmaids!

    I just wanted a slumber party and my sister threw one for me - we were all over 21 but I think it would have been fine for someone underage to be there. Cheesy movies, board games and pizza - alcohol too, but not really necessary (though I also don't think it's a big deal if the over 21s drink with under age people there). I thought it was fun, but of course it depends on the bride and her group of friends.

    as a bridesmaid, i have thrown an under-21 bach party before.
    we did this:
    went to a pole dancing/aerobic dance class (flirty but not dirty)
    checked into the hotel and cleaned up
    got lunch with the moms and aunts as well as bach party girls
    went swimming at hotel pool
    got done up for the evening
    opened gifts in the hotel rooms
    went to dinner and over 21s had a cocktail or two
    went to a different restaurant for dessert (and cocktails for over 21s)
    by this time it was about 11pm and the over 21s went out to two area bars while the unders went back to the hotel where we left them a basket of movies, snacks and nail polish

    have the hostesses organize a photo scavenger hunt! you could split the guests into groups, or make it a list of 'photo ops' the bride has to do, with the help of her girls. some ideas would be "a picture dancing with a stranger", a picture with a funny hat", "a picture with twins", etc. they can be as embarrassing or silly as the hostesses would like to make them. my cousins did something similar for my bachelorette and it was hilarious for everyone, 21 or not (7 of us went)

    I just did a slumber party type deal for mine (and not because of anyone being underage - I just hate bars etc).  My bridesmaids made dinner and we played games and watched a movie, and I had a BLAST.  We had it at my MOH's house; her significant other just stayed at his parents for the night.
