While bachelor parties are a tradition dating back to the 1800s, bachelorette parties have become popular only recently. Bachelorette parties seem to be more about the bride-to-be bonding with women friends than the male tradition of enjoying a final night of freedom before marriage.

Planning a bachelorette party should center around the personality of the bachelorette. Is she fun and outgoing or is she more quiet and prefer not to be in the spotlight? Also, with the traditional bachelorette party, would she be comfortable with the more risqué, or would it be offensive? These are all important questions, which will determine the success of your bachelorette party.

The bachelor party is a special time for the groom and close male friends to spend time together before the wedding ceremony. This event was originally called stag night or the bachelor dinner. This tradition originates from the 5th century BC in Sparta when the groom would gather with his male friends the night before his wedding.

Of course, whether or not you want to go with PG rated Disney, or a PG-rated bachlorette party is entirely your decision (especially if you happen to be the maid of honor).
