Winter Bachelorette Theme Ideas
While summer is the most popular time for bachelorette parties, schedules or preferences might dictate that your bach celebration is held in the winter. If you’re planning a winter bachelorette party and are stuck on how to theme it, this post is for you!
Why host a Winter bachelorette party?
There are plenty of ideas and themes for winter bachelorette parties, and another advantage is you may take advantage of off season prices when booking activities, accommodation and restaurants depending on your location.
A winter bachelorette party can also embrace seasonal elements, incorporating ideas inspired by the holidays or outdoor activities. From snowy après-ski celebrations to the pinks and reds of a Valentine’s themed bachelorette, read on for our top winter bachelorette party themes!
“Snow In Love” Theme
Step into a Winter Wonderland with the Snow in Love bachelorette theme! Decorate with white, silver, and icy blue accents to mimic a serene winter scene. Use fairy lights, snowflakes, and faux snow to enhance the ambiance.
Guests can enjoy a hot chocolate bar with various toppings, such as marshmallows and peppermint. Incorporate winter-themed activities, like ice skating or hosting a movie marathon with classic winter films. This theme sets an enchanting tone for the bride’s celebration.
Apres Ski Theme
If your bride is a ski bunny or snowboard fanatic, the Apres Ski bachelorette theme brings the cosy vibe of mountain lodges to the bachelorette party. Think rustic decor with wooden accents, plaid blankets, and warm lighting. Encourage guests to wear their best ski attire or flannel outfits for a fun twist.
Serve hearty comfort food such as baked cheese, fondue, and mulled wine. Activities could include a DIY cocktail bar featuring warm drinks or group games akin to those played in ski lodges. This theme is ideal for après-ski relaxation.
