In terms of pre-wedding events, the bachelorette party is the least formal affair and meant to be the most fun, so it should start off that way. Kick off your bach by sending invitation cards that suit the occasion and theme. There are details to include, of course, but most of the invites can be fun and flirty, and reflect the bride’s style and personality (which should also be reflected in the other wedding-related correspondence, like the bridal shower invitations).
Once you’ve picked the right stationery, the hardest part is deciding how to word your bachelorette invitations. But don’t stress: We’ve got you covered. Here, we gathered a variety of party invitation wording options for you to choose from. Let’s take a look at some bachelorette party invite wording ideas—along with a few invitation templates—as inspiration to help you get started:

The MOH has a lot on her plate, especially if she’s planning a bridal shower as well, so whether someone else takes over completely or someone steps in to handle the bachelorette party details, it's a good idea to provide her with some help.
If you’re the designated bachelorette party planner, the burden of planning and expense doesn’t fall all on you. Ask for help from other members of the bridal party and split all costs between everyone. Ok, let’s get to the fun stuff…

There are plenty of fun ways to word the bachelorette party invite that put a simple “You’re Invited” to shame. And remember, bachelorette party invitations don’t have to be as formal as a wedding invitation, so don’t be afraid to mix things up! Here are a few fun (and funny) bachelorette party invitation template ideas to get your creative juices flowing.
Invitations are the stomping grounds of a good rhyme—and always have been. When you send out invites to your bride tribe, stick to rhyming phrases like these—some classic (read: tried and true) and some fun and fresh—and you can’t go wrong:

Now is the time to set the tone. Are you headed to Texas for a Western-themed fete or to a lake for fireside festivities? Then, incorporate country or campfire phrasing.

When all else fails (or you don't have a party idea yet), pick a big, bold font and a catchy phrase that will get everyone excited for what’s to come. Here are a few foolproof options:

Once you have settled on a bachelorette invitation and the proper wording to go with it, you can carry the theme throughout the rest of the party. Stick to similar phrasing, design, color schemes, and motifs to keep the rest of the paper goods consistent and get the point across. Here are a few fun additions to include with your order:
Outline the weekend’s festivities with an itinerary set to the tune of your invite. Use similar, or even the same, wording at the top and add a timeline of events, so that everyone knows where to be and when.
Custom games are another great way to incorporate your chosen wording and theme. Think paper games like “Who Knows the Bride Best,” or a bride-themed Scattergories. There are a number of fun bachelorette party games that can be created and printed ahead of time and mimic the style and wording of your invites.
Ok, so these may not be paper goods per se, but they do feature fun and creative wording that should be in step with your invite. Go with the same phrase, or just stick to the theme. If you went with the wording “Champagne Campaign” on your invite, you can pick out T-shirts that also say “Champagne Campaign.” Or, if you chose “Last Sail Before the Veil,” go with wording along the same nautical lines like “I Do Crew.”
All the thought you put into the bachelorette party invite wording—and the complementary goods—is well worth the effort. There’s no doubt it sets the tone for a fun weekend ahead.
What better way to stick to your party theme than stickers? Print out or order some fun and quirky stickers to include on your invitations and throughout the venue. And if you’re the artistic and DIY type? Add your own flair to the stickers’ designs to really let your creativity shine through in the last days before your wedding.
