The bachelorette party venue is booked. The outfit is bought. The friends have RSVP'd. So, what's next? How about rounding up the best bachelorette party toys and accessories? No matter where you and the group are headed (be it a weekend in Vegas with your girls, a fancy dinner, or a girls night-in), the options are actually endless — and all sound like so much fun!
No matter what, throwing a bachelorette party that doesn't suck is easy when you have all of the ingredients for an amazing time: Your friends, great entertainment, and an awesome setting. But what about those things you never knew you needed? The bachelorette party supplies and knick-knacks that will take your crazy night to the next level? Often, the little things that can make a party the party are an afterthought. You know: the things that would make your soirée "Pinterest-worthy."
Sometimes a witty T-shirt, bachelorette alternative accessories, a few personalized decorations, and a bunch of games can go a long way. And then there are the things you didn't even know that you needed — the things that will make you feel better the next morning after a wild night out (come on, don't shake your head, you know what that hangover feels like).

This emergency kit has it all: pain reliever, double-sided tape, clear polish, breath mist, hairspray, and even a deodorizing toilette. You can be there for the bride when she needs you most, or just bask in the glory of messy eating, knowing you've got a stain remover handy whenever you need it.

Party in Style While Embracing The Kitschiness
Plastic Wedding Ring Shot Glass, $10, Amazon
It's always great to find something inexpensive and fun. So, take shots in style — out of plastic diamond ring shot glasses. If you're not into bringing them out with you, you could always make some Jello shots at home. If you are going the jello shot route, visit a craft store to purchase a piece of foam to stick the rings in, so that the Jello doesn't make a mess in your fridge!
Make A Weekend of It
Girls Night Out - Bachelorette Party Wine Bottle Labels (Set of 4), $8, Amazon
Why just have one night for your Bachelorette Party? Make a weekend of it, so you can have a night out, a great day of brunching or beaching, and then a girls night-in. And no girls night in is complete without some wine. You can make this a night in to remember and dress up your wine bottles with some bachelorette themed labels. (This also makes a great gift for the Bride if you aren't sure what to bring to a bachelorette party).

Say Cheese! Remember Your Night With A Photo Booth
Girls Night Out- Bachelorette Party Photo Booth Props Kit (20 Count), $20, Amazon
One of my favorite ways to keep memories is by taking photos. Set up a photo booth, or use an instant camera to take pictures that will provide you with memories well after the party is over. And no photo booth is complete without some silly props. Put up a background, and provide your guests with a board to stick their photos on, so you can bring it home with you afterwards.
Leave Your Guests With Something Fun

Give the group something useful and fun to use at the party, or just to remember it later on. If you're headed to the beach or a pool party, why not keep all your things together in a durable canvas tote? Reusable favors are so much better than something that will just be tossed in a drawer. And now every time the friends use it, they'll instantly remember how awesome the bachelorette party was.

A bad hangover can feel deadly. Bounce back quickly with the ultimate hangover kit.

It's the perfect party favor, and what's even better is that everything comes put together, so there is no need to go out to the store and assemble your own kit.
Stay Hydrated... And Personalized
