Video conferencing applications such as Zoom, Skype, or FaceTime will allow for your entire bridal party to be together regardless of their location. Although you will no longer physically be together, you can still celebrate! If you are able to safely social distance with your bridal party these same ideas can be applied in whatever location works for you. Although many things in the wedding industry are changing, you shouldn’t have to hold off on your bachelorette party. There are ways to make your bachelorette party work and still be unforgettable in the midst of a pandemic. Here are four ideas for your next quarantined bachelorette party!

Start by sending out invitations to the bride and bridal party. This will keep the excitement for the event alive. Whether these are Evites or physical invitations it gives everyone something to look forward to and gives it more of a traditional bachelorette party feel.
