Our Top Tips for Choosing a Bachelorette Party Theme

1. If you are planning a dress code and want your hens to wear a coordinated outfit then make sure you let them know early! You could also create a Pinterest board to share with the girls so they are all on the right page.

2. Know your bride. Make sure to choose a theme that is relevant to the bride. Think about how she dresses for special occasions, does she like to go all out glam or is she more of a casual dresser?Perhaps she's is a vintage loving gal or rocks a flower crown at every opportunity?

3. Take your location and activities into consideration. For example, a glam Gatsby theme probably won't work for a glamping bachelorette party, likewise boho vibes might make it tricky to get into a swanky club.

4. Think about budget. If you know some of your ladies will be on a tight budget, think about a theme that will incorporate items they already have, or find an affordable source to direct them too.
