Looking for ideas for Bachelorette Party Activities at Home?
When it comes to bachelor and bachelorette parties, wild adventures and destinations seem to be the ideal thing.
But while many people might think Vegas sounds like the perfect place to celebrate the final nights of being single, there’s still some of us that might not find it so exciting. And that’s okay.
You don’t have to go wild and crazy just because society says that’s the thing to do. If you want to have a simple and fun bachelorette party at home – we say do it!
And to those of you who are saying – “yes! That’s me! Let’s do it at home!” – here are some of our favorite at home Bachelorette party activities:
Bachelorette Party Activities At Home
Yoga
Whether you’re a fitness fanatic or just need to relax and destress before your big day, yoga can be a great way to get your mind in the game.
Yoga is simple and easy enough that anyone can do it – so even your friends who don’t workout can enjoy the session.
You can book a session at a yoga studio, or hire a yoga instructor to come right to your home for a personalized session.
If you’re looking to save some money, you could even do an online instructional from YouTube.
Goat Yoga
Looking to up your yoga game? Goat yoga is a hilarious way to get in a good workout while at the same time enjoying all of the cuteness that baby goats have to offer!
For those who’ve never heard of it, goat yoga is exactly what it sounds like – yoga with goats! The goats will wander around and if you’re lucky, even jump on your back while in the middle of your yoga session.
This bachelorette party will make for some great laughs, great memories, and excellent photos for the gram!
Spa Session
You don’t have to go far to have your very own spa session.
Many massage therapists, facialists, and other personal healthcare professionals will travel right to your own home.
Nowadays you can even find nail artists who are willing to travel wherever you are. So if you and your gals are in need of some TLC, consider having a spa session at home.
Looking to save some money? No one said you had to hire professionals! Buy all of your at home spa essentials and treat each other to a pampering, at-home spa date!
Wine and Cheese
You don’t have to head straight to the wineries to enjoy a wine and cheese night with your girls.
All you need is a few bottles of your favorite wine, a few of your favorite cheeses and snacks to make up a nice charcuterie board, and you’re all ready to do your own wine and cheese tasting night at home.
A wine and cheese night is the best of both worlds. You still get to have a quiet night in with all of your best girls, but you also get all of the fun and laughter that will come once the wine gets flowing!
Looking to save some money? Instead of buying all the wine yourself, ask each guest to bring a bottle of their favorite.
Not only will this save you money, but it will also give you the opportunity to try a variety of different wines that you might not have selected yourself.
Strippers
Okay, so we know it’s probably not totally “appropriate”, but could we really write an article about bachelorette party ideas without the strippers?
They aren’t for everyone but they are definitely a bachelor and bachelorette party tradition. So if it sounds like something you’re up for (and you’re confident that it won’t destroy your relationship), we say go for it!
Slumber Party
When was the last time you and all of your best gal pals had a slumber party? We’re really not sure why we give up slumber parties in adulthood, but most adults simply don’t have overnight sleepovers with their girls anymore – and that makes us sad.
But a bachelorette party is the perfect excuse to do so!
Throw on your comfiest pajamas, grab some popcorn and scary movies, and maybe even throw in a pillow fight along the way.
Remember all of your favorite things that you used to do at your childhood sleepovers and then bring them to your bachelorette party!
Boudoir Photos
You might typically think of Boudoir photos as something to do with a private photographer, but if you’re comfortable enough with your girlfriends, why not build up each other’s confidence?
Taking Boudoir photos can be intimidating, but it can also be freeing and empowering.
Hire a photographer, have your friends bring all their sexiest lingerie, and then have a boudoir shoot together.
You and your friends can be there to encourage each other when the feelings of intimidation take over.
The end results will be something you can keep forever – and it will help you and your girlfriends bond like never before.
Dance Party
What says “bachelorette party” more than dancing? With a few small props, you can set up your own home and living room to be your own personal dance club.
Balloons, stereo systems, strobe lights, and disco balls can bring all of your home dance party dreams to life.
If you have the extra money to spare, you could even hire a professional to set up a dance floor for you so you can avoid all of the extra work and cleanup.
Boozy Brunch
Did you ever think of hosting your bachelorette party in the middle of the day? This is your wedding and there are no rules!
Breakfast, lunch, or dinner – you can host your bachelorette party whenever you want. And a boozy brunch can be just as fun as nighttime shenanigans.
There’s so many different ideas for a boozy brunch. Host a picnic. Bring in a personal chef. Set up an elaborate themed brunch. The skies are the limit!
Outdoor Movie Night
There are tons of companies out there that you can now rent outdoor movie screens from!
How cool would it be to have a movie night in your own backyard?
If the weather allows, bring out some of your most comfy furniture, pop some popcorn, and play your favorite movies on the big screen right from your own backyard.
Game Night
Plan a game night at home! Gather everyone together for a casual and cozy evening filled with laughs, friendly competition, and maybe even a little friendly wagering.
You could play classic board games like Monopoly or Scrabble, or mix things up with party games like Cards Against Humanity or Telestrations After Dark.
Serve up some snacks and drinks, turn on some music, and get ready for a night of bonding and fun.
Cocktail Making
If you’re looking for a fun and interactive activity you can do is a cocktail making party. You’ll get to mix and mingle while learning how to create delicious drinks like a pro.
You could hire a professional bartender to come to your home and lead the class, or you could DIY it with some cocktail recipe books and ingredients.
Either way, you’ll have a blast experimenting with different flavors and getting creative with your garnishes. And don’t worry, you don’t have to be a master mixologist to participate.
It’s all about having fun and enjoying each other’s company.
Plus, you’ll get to sip on some tasty cocktails along the way!
Private Chef
Consider hiring a private chef for your bachelorette party at home. With a private chef, you’ll get to enjoy restaurant-quality food in the comfort of your own home without having to lift a finger.
They’ll work with you to create a custom menu based on your preferences, dietary restrictions, and budget.
You could opt for a multi-course meal or a more casual buffet-style setup.
Watch the chef in action and learn some culinary tips and tricks along the way.
Having a private chef will allow you to relax and enjoy the party without having to worry about cooking and cleaning up afterwards. Win-win!

Purchase some fresh flowers and greenery from a local florist or farmer’s market, and set up a workspace with some vases, scissors, and floral tape.

Set up a toppings station with all kinds of options, like cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, peppers, the works.

Set up a cozy and intimate space for the readings, with some candles, incense, or crystals to create a mystical ambiance. You could even serve some themed snacks and drinks, like fortune cookies or a signature cocktail.
Virtual Escape Room
Set up a virtual escape room for your bachelorette! You could find a virtual escape room online, or even hire a company to create a personalized experience just for your group.
You’ll have to work together to find clues, solve puzzles, and unlock hidden secrets to escape the room before time runs out.
It’s a fun and unique activity that’s perfect for a low-key and intimate bachelorette party at home.
Plus, since it’s virtual, you can invite guests from all over the world to join in on the fun!
S’mores Night
You just set up a table with all the ingredients needed to make s’mores: graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate. Then add in some fun extras like different types of chocolate (milk, dark, white), different types of marshmallows (flavored or even gourmet), and toppings like nuts, sprinkles, or even bacon!
Once you have everything set up, let your guests go wild! They can make their own s’mores to their liking.
One great thing about a s’mores bar is that it’s really easy to set up and doesn’t require a ton of prep work.
You can even do it outside if you have a fire pit or grill available, but if not, you can easily make s’mores using a stovetop or microwave.
Karaoke Night
Karaoke is a great way to let loose, sing your heart out, and make some unforgettable memories with your friends.
To make your karaoke night unique, consider choosing a theme for the event.
Maybe you want to have a throwback ’90s karaoke party, or perhaps you’d like to go with a Disney princess theme. You could even ask your guests to dress up to match the theme to really get into the spirit of things.
If you don’t have a karaoke machine, don’t worry! You can easily find karaoke tracks on YouTube or use a karaoke app on your phone or tablet.
You can even set up a makeshift stage area with some streamers and a microphone stand to make it feel like a real concert.
To really get your guests excited about karaoke, consider adding in some fun props or accessories. You could provide feather boas, sunglasses, or even inflatable microphones for your guests to use while they’re singing.
Trivia Night
To make your trivia night unique, consider creating a theme that fits the bride-to-be’s interests. For example, if she’s a big fan of Harry Potter, you could do a Harry Potter trivia night. Or if she loves pop culture, you could do a trivia night all about celebrity gossip and music.
To get started, you’ll need to come up with some questions. You can easily find trivia questions online or even make up your own.
Divide your guests into teams and have them compete to see who can answer the most questions correctly.
To keep things casual and fun, consider providing snacks and drinks for your guests to enjoy while they play.
You could also incorporate mini-games in between rounds to keep everyone engaged and having fun.
Scavenger Hunt
To do your own bachelorette scavenger hunt, you’ll need to create a list of items or clues that your guests will need to find. You can make these as easy or difficult as you like, depending on the level of challenge you want to provide. Separate your girls into teams and have them race to find all the items or clues on the list.
Have guests take photos or videos of themselves completing each item on the list. This will not only make it more fun but also allow everyone to have a keepsake from the event.
Makeup Tutorials
Hire a makeup artist to come in and do everyone’s makeup. Your girls can learn how to do their own, get ideas on what they need, or see how they might want their makeup done for your big day.
You can even watch make up tutorials together and try to copy the looks on each other.
DIY Charcuterie Board Making
Charcuterie boards are a great way to showcase a variety of tasty treats and allow everyone to get creative with their snacking.
To make your charcuterie board making session unique, consider providing a variety of interesting and unique ingredients. You could include different types of cheeses, cured meats, crackers, fruits, nuts, and spreads…or do desert boards, buttercream boards, and the like.
Encourage your guests to get creative and experiment with different combinations and flavors.
If you don’t want to stop the night early, set up a few backyard tents, dance under the stars, and enjoy your last nights as a single woman.
