Planning a bachelorette party is no easy feat! We’ve been there (more than a few times) and know just how much work goes into ensuring the bride and all her best gals have a great time. If you’re stepping up to the plate to plan your BFF or sister’s last hurrah, first of all, kudos to you! And secondly, we’re here to help. Organizing nighttime festivities is the easy part, but how do you keep everyone entertained all weekend long? Don’t fret, because we have gathered up the best bachelorette party activities you can do during the day. We’ve tried and LOVED them all, so we guarantee they will be a hit with any group of ladies!
1. Take A Floral Arranging Class
Making your own flower arrangements – and learning how to from a pro – is super fun! You can book a private event or attend one through Alice’s Table for you and the girls to get a little crafty. You’ll not only be able to take home your beautiful arrangements, but take away skills to make them all the time afterward too! We think ours turned pretty pretty if we do say so ourselves.
2. Go On A Bike Tour… with a Bartender
If you live in a big city, you may have seen these bicycle carts full of singing ladies riding through the busy streets in town. Most popular bachelorette destinations offer the ‘bar-cycles’, where you can ride from pub to pub, or – even better – ride around while an onboard bartender serves up drinks! You will not only get to enjoy a beer or two, but also get a good tour of the city! How fun is that?!
3. Throw A Pool Party
Ain’t no party like a pool party! If you’re going somewhere warm, and have booked a sick AirBnB, we pose the question, “why leave?” But really, all you need is your suit and a swimming pool to lay out in the backyard and have a good time with the girls! Throw in some piña coladas and voila!
4. Go On A Wine Tasting Safari
If you like wine, or animals, or both, this is the activity for you! Your troop will love taking a spin on an open air jeep over hills and through vines on the one-of-a-kind Malibu Wine Safari! While on this journey just outside of L.A. you’ll see zebras, llamas, and giraffes, oh my! And did we mention wine? Yes, there’s wine! You will also get to taste a flight of whites and reds at pitstops along the way. And after deciding on your favorite kind and saying hello to the famous Stanley (see below!), stop by the open air tasting room and split a bottle while you picnic under the sunshine!
5. Spice Up Your Sunday Brunch
For a fun twist on your typical brunch, invite the Fondudes. Yes, it’s exactly what you’re thinking… a mix of dudes & fondue ;). This combination was made for bachelorette parties! Instead of your typical latte & pastry, try their ‘Café au Laid’ and ‘Sin-a-bun’. You’ll get what you ordered with a cherry on top… and probably leave everyone speechless too!
6. Make Your Own Perfume

Have you ever?! The process of making your own perfume is SO original! Plus, it’s a girly good time. Each girl will walk away from the process with her own personal blend. How’s that for a fun favor? Depending on what city you’re in, you may be able to find a local perfumer to bring the supplies to you!
7. Take A Booze Cruise
Who doesn’t love a booze cruise?! If you visit a location with a nearby body of water, this is such a fun way to spend an afternoon- or all day! Kill a couple of hours enjoying the fresh salty air with a bevvy in hand. If you’re in L.A. book with our favorite Pacific Ocean Charters, and watch your worries wash away with the waves.
Not so fast! If you’re planning the party, you’ll also need these 10 things! Have you tried any of these fun activities? Let us know your experience in the comments below!
