Bachelorette parties come in all shapes and sizes (as do male strippers). Some brides want relaxing girls' getaways, while others go for wild and crazy Vegas-style parties.
A wedding calls for a celebration, and the bachelorette party is an opportune time to spend some quality time with your good friends, but celebrating a friend's impending end to singledom could be time-consuming and expensive if it involves going somewhere.

I am having a mini panic attack about my sister's wedding and need some advice. I'm her maid of honor but we don't really get along — the only reason she asked me to be in her wedding is because I'm her only sister. We just had the bridal shower, which was fine except for behind-the-scenes drama with another bridesmaid, but now I'm worrying about the bachelorette party.

Living it up with your closest friends one last time before taking the trip down the aisle is a big part of getting married. Most brides and grooms plan their bachelor/bachelorette parties months in advance, and they're usually events that are talked about years later.
While it's customary to have single sex soirees, some couples — Fergie and Josh for example who partied it up together last night in LA — opt to have a joint bachelor/bachelorette party.

Dear Sugar,
My long-time boyfriend’s only sister is getting married next year and she asked me to be her maid of honor. I’m absolutely thrilled and honored to be so involved with her wedding, as she’s an amazing woman. That being said, we are friendly, but we’re not best friends.

My best friend asked me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding, and of course, I accepted without hesitation. The maid of honor and my best friend's mother planned the bachelorette party, but only days before the scheduled party date. The other bridesmaids live several hours away and because of the last-minute planning were unable to come.

There is no question that bachelorette parties are a ton of fun, but they have their cheesy moments too. Some women opt for a low-key girls getaway, but others go all out, dressing up the bride in a veil and adorning her in as much penis paraphernalia as they can get their hands on! Yes, it's kind of funny, but I'm not one for embarrassing prenuptial gear.
