What to Put in a Bachelorette Bag for Bridesmaids

Your bridesmaids will be the ones to support you and help you celebrate tying the knot — why not give them a little thank-you gift while partying at your bachelorette party? The perfect gifts include practical items you know your crew can use and a few fun, personalized touches. Let us help you decide what to put in a bachelorette bag for your bridesmaids, and pick and choose from our comprehensive list below! 

The Bag

Before you start assembling your items, you first need to select your gift bag. The size of your gift bag will determine how many items you’ll need for each gift — but it’s also a great way to add some personalization or fun. We love a reusable bag, like this canvas tote with leather handles or even a fun fanny pack! However, you can amp up the party vibes with these holographic gift bags — perfect for a disco-themed event. We’re also extremely tempted by these jelly handbags — they’re a fun throwback item that your entire crew can reuse, and the customization options are so cute!

Basic Necessities

In our opinion, the first order of business for a bachelorette bag is something practical. We’re talking about hangover kits and a few basic necessities. This fun hangover kit is not only cute but also comes with items like Advil, Emergen-C, bandaids, makeup remover, hair ties, stain removers, gum, Liquid IV, under eye masks, and more. It has everything a gal will need to recover from a serious party. You can also create your own kit. We love the idea of adding items like flossers, breath mints, hand sanitizer, or even cute soaps. 

Self Care

Beyond the practical, every gal deserves a little self-care. Build in some downtime to let your besties recharge with a cute sleep mask. Help everyone feel refreshed for a night out with this highly-rated face mist. We also love these fancy little hand creams — everyone deserves a little luxury.

Themed Apparel

A bachelorette bag doesn’t have to include expensive or large items, but if you want to splurge a little, then we’re on board! These themed t-shirts are so cute, and we love that your crew could re-wear them after the event. We also love the idea of a fun hat — and there are so many great options! You could choose anything from sun visors or floppy sun hats to these cute trucker hats. Is your party in the winter? Lean into the season with these cozy and adorable beanies. 

Beauty

While you and your besties are preparing for an amazing night out, why not treat them with a few fun beauty items to elevate the experience? You know your besties best so grab a few items you know they’ll love, whether it’s lip gloss or a quality chapstick. We also love a fun eye shadow, nail polish, or even perfume samples. 

Food / Drinks

Every bachelorette party should start with a little snack and a delicious drink. Grab some snacks you know your crew loves or even some delicious chocolates. We can’t get enough of these Lindor Truffles — plus it’s so easy to sprinkle a few in every bag. While we all know there will be plenty of beverages throughout the night, we can’t help ourselves with cute little cocktail kits, especially this fun champagne cocktail kit. You can also consider some cups, themed drink pouches, or even cute, custom koozies.

Jewelry

The bride has the most important piece of bling at this party, but if you’re feeling generous you can share the love with some fun pieces of jewelry. Lean into the theme with cheesy toy rings — bonus points if they light up! Consider these friendship bracelets too — they’re bachelorette-themed and so fun! You can also customize these beautiful travel jewelry boxes for your girls so they can travel with all their favorite pieces.

Accessories

Accessories make the outfit! Finish everyone’s look with these adorable heart-shaped sunglasses. Alternatively, you can lean into the romance of the event with these beautiful flower crowns. We also love the idea of adding some practicality to the gift bags with scrunchies, hair claws, or barrettes. 

Something Fun

If you’re looking for something personal to finish off your bachelorette gift bags, we recommend a picture of the bride with each bridesmaid — or a group photo of everyone! Bonus points if you print the photos on these fun magnets. These temporary tattoos would also spice up the party and add a little fun. Nice candles or thoughtful journals are also the perfect things to include for your bridesmaid crew. 

Personal Note

Lastly, no bachelorette gift bag would be complete without a personal note from the bride. Your friends have been with you through thick and thin, and now they’re going to help you prepare for your big day. Let them know how grateful you are for their support! 

It’s not necessary to put together elaborate bachelorette gift bags for your bridesmaids, but this list of ideas will help you pull together the exact right gift to thank your crew. Then you can all focus on the most important part of any bachelorette party — having fun!
