16 Funny Bachelorette Food Ideas
Have you ever been to a bachelorette party? Depending on the bride to be’s personality, they can be everything from cute and casual evening at home with friends to a weekend getaway girl’s trip or a wild night out on the town. Bachelorette parties is a centuries old tradition that’s become a fun way of celebrating the bride-to-be’s last days as a single person with her closest friends and family.
Aside from the entertainment, planning the food at a bachelorette party is one of the most exciting aspects of throwing a bachelorette party. You can incorporate a lot of funny food ideas to make the event more special and memorable.
Today, I’m sharing a round-up of funny bachelorette food ideas you can try if you’re planning a bachelorette or bridal shower party soon.
16 Funny Bachelorette Food Ideas
Try any of these fun food ideas at your upcoming bachelorette party! These also work great for bridal showers too.
Bachelorette party finger foods
“Veg-ay-jay Tray”
Sometimes the best (and easiest) way to display finger foods is on charcuterie boards. To make it fun, serve up a veggie tray renamed as a “Veg-ay-jay Tray”. You can do a mix of cauliflower, broccoli, celery, and baby carrots to give you some ideas paired with ranch, guac, or hummus as dipping sauce.
Submissive Subs
A trusty finger food to serve up at any occasion is a sandwich. Label these as submissive subs for a fun twist. You can also use this same name if you’re offering some other kind of sandwich option.
