Let's Go To Camp

We love the dark greens that are found with a Camp Bachelorette theme. They are so cozy and can easily compliment a summer or fall bachelorette weekend. Orange and yellow (campfire colors) are the perfect accents, as well as a khaki.

To really brand your weekend, check out the ideas below for slogans and personalization:

Gift Guides

Tuck all the camp essentials, such as a water bottle, campfire mug, bandana, bug spray and sunscreen into a classic boat tote. Don't forget your towel! We also love the idea of using these national parks postcards to write sweet welcome notes to your bridesmaids.

Gift your bride this green camp sash complete with the letters B R I D E ironed on the front. She, along with the other campers, can complete tasks to earn additional badges for her sash.

Friendly Competition

The whole idea with Camp Bachelorette is to sell the idea of summer camp. What screams camp more than camp games? Divide your babes into teams for some friendly competition. We love the idea of different colored bandanas to differentiate teams.

Games could include a sack race, egg toss or tug of war. Remember those Minute to Win It games? Those as well as any of the bride's favorite drinking games would be perfect.

Grant either the bride or brave bachelorette a bullhorn, whistle and clipboard to serve as the lead camp counselor for the weekend.

As you play games and move through the weekend, consider awarding badges either to your bride or to everyone for different accomplishments or wins. We love these badges that are so versatile and allow you to assign meaning to them.

If you are looking for some indoor activities, we suggest making friendship bracelets or decorating the water bottles gifted in your bachelorette bags with fun camp themed stickers, like these. Both are such a fun takeaway from the weekend and would be great memories!

For weekend snacks, we suggest a trail mix bar and/or s'mores around a camp fire.

Do You Believe in Magic?

If you love The Parent Trap, Camp Bachelorette is the perfect bachelorette theme for you! You can use all of the summer camp aesthetic found in this blog, with a few additions. If you want even more Parent Trap, we have a separate mini blog post on a Parent Trap bachelorette found here.

Welcome to Camp

Nothing feels more festive than the entrance of your bachelorette abode decked out with an oversized sign that screams Camp Bachelorette. This one found on Etsy will let you customize them to include the name of your bride. Bonus points if you book a cabin for the weekend.

As your babes arrive for the weekend, greet them with their room assignments and rooms decorated to mimic camp cabins. Additional signage can include directions to the mess hall and more. A weekend itinerary can be clipped to a clipboard to keep driving home that summer camp vibe.

Pennants are also a really fun nostalgic way to decorate. They can be decorated with the your weekend slogans or each guests' name outside their room. We also love the idea of a "No Boys Allowed" sign hung somewhere in the house.

For setting your table, a green and white checkered table cloth is the perfect foundation. Decorate your table with campfire mugs or s'mores kits. These kraft paper scalloped napkins would also be such a cute addition.

We hope you have so much inspiration to throw the best Camp Bachelorette weekend! Is there a theme you want to see? Email us at babesincelebration@gmail.com
