Fun games? Check. Themed decorations? Check. Matching outfits? Check. Planning the perfect bachelor or bachelorette party requires a lot of carefully thought-out planning and preparation. While alcoholic drinks are typically on the “to-buy” checklist, have you ever considered hosting a sober bachelor/bachelorette party?
Sober bachelor/bachelorette parties are becoming increasingly popular for those seeking a more meaningful and mindful celebration. Whether you’re soaking up the sun on a warm beach or line dancing in Nashville, sober bachelor/bachelorette parties are ideal for celebrating the bride or groom-to-be.
WELCOMING EVERYONE TO THE PARTY
Who are you inviting to the party? The guest list for a bachelor/bachelorette party usually consists of wedding party members. This can lead to an eclectic mix of siblings, future in-laws, childhood friends, college roommates, and co-workers. As the planner, how well do you know every guest attending?
Consider hosting a sober bachelor/bachelorette party to make everyone feel welcome. This ensures that any bridesmaid or groomsman who is sober or curious will feel included in the festivities.
Never assume that drinking is an activity that all guests will enjoy and want to participate in. Your guests may be sober for several personal reasons, and the presence of alcohol can be a trigger. Sober bachelor/bachelorette parties provide a more inclusive celebration.
A CELEBRATION TO REMEMBER
A bachelor/bachelorette party is an event that you’ll want the groom or bride to never forget… that is if they can remember it. Removing alcohol allows your guests to make precious memories with the guest of honor that they’ll always remember. It shifts the focus to the celebration rather than the drinking act.
How many bachelors/bachelorettes have you attended where someone made an absolute fool of themselves due to overdrinking? Sober bachelor/bachelorette parties present a perfect solution to this worry. While a sober party doesn’t promise that guests won’t make bad decisions, it guarantees nobody will wake up to a nasty hangover.
Bachelors/bachelorettes are no longer just a one-night event - they are weekend celebrations packed with fun activities. When you don’t drink alcohol, you don’t have hangovers. This allows your guests to be more present and feel their best for the entire weekend itinerary. You’ll also find that you and your guests spend more meaningful, quality time together and form deeper connections.
SOBER DRINK IDEAS
So, what are some delicious non-alcoholic drinks? There are endless alcohol alternatives that will go with any party theme. Below is a list of popular sober drink ideas for your upcoming sober bachelor/bachelorette parties.
The elevation of plain water provides a unique taste to your everyday hydration. This can include fruits, vegetables, or herbs. Popular ideas include lime, cucumber, lemon, mint, basil, and strawberry. Serve them in a beautiful glass pitcher. Infused waters are the perfect drink for mindful activities such as sound baths, yoga classes, or group meditation.
Step aside cocktails; mocktails are the moment! If you love the look and flavors of traditional cocktails, consider serving mocktails. Mocktails are sophisticated and fun alcohol alternatives that provide the same social benefits. Turn any bachelor/bachelorette party sober by switching your cocktails to mocktails.
Light and refreshing spritzers are perfect for a bachelor/bachelorette party! Mix a sparkling soda with your favorite fruit juices or flavored syrups to make a spritzer. Popular flavors include rosemary, grapefruit, orange, pomegranate, lime, and raspberry. Spritzers are an excellent choice for your bachelor/bachelorette luncheon, giving you sparkling energy for the rest of the day’s activities!
Does your groom or bride run on caffeine? Consider including a coffee bar at the party! After a long day of activities, a morning coffee bar and brunch will give your guests the energy to keep the party going! Provide different flavors of coffee and fun flavored syrups to create the ultimate coffee bar.
A healthy choice, cold-pressed juices are a great on-the-go choice. Cold-pressed juices are packed with vitamins and nutrients and are crafted from an extensive range of vegetables and fruits. Consider serving them on the last day as a post-party cleanse.
Serve DIY smoothies as a fun activity! Your guests will combine their favorite fruits with ice and yogurt, then finish their creations with various toppings such as coconut, granola, or chia seeds. Have a taste test to see which smoothie the bride or groom likes best!
To provide your guests with a soothing drink option, offer herbal teas. Tea is the perfect refreshment to start your day calmly and gently. Bring a variety of flavors like peppermint, chamomile, and hibiscus to have an herbal tea sampling.
A unique option that might surprise your guests is kombucha! A fermented tea with health benefits and bold flavors, kombucha is a drink your guests won’t forget. This is the ultimate choice for the bride or groom who loves to try new things.
If your guest of honor has a sweet tooth, milkshakes are the way to go! Visit a diner or a milkshake shop for a sweet and creamy dessert. Today, milkshakes are available in non-dairy options to accommodate guests with dietary restrictions.
