Tiffany is one of the most elegant and impeccable styles. It is valued for its simplicity and lightness, bordering on royal luxury and sweet spontaneity. Many people prefer to hold wedding celebrations there, but what about a Tiffany-style bachelorette party?
A bachelorette party is a popular pre-wedding party. On this day, all the girls close to the bride gather and have fun, escorting their friend into the world of “marriage.” There should be no men among the guests, because this is a purely women's holiday. For a long time, the event was filled with signs and traditions, the fulfillment of which promised a happy family life. However, very little has been learned from the true meaning of the pre-wedding bachelorette party. Now it’s just a holiday that’s nice to remember later.
Venue: cozy retro cafe
For a pre-wedding “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” party, the optimal place would be a small, cozy retro-style cafe. The walls of the cafe are usually decorated with posters of stars, newspaper clippings, posters, and various photographs. The cafe is furnished with antique furniture made of natural wood. Dim lighting will create the atmosphere that is necessary for the evening, the prototype of which was the famous film with Audrey Hepburn.
The highlight of such cafes are record players, from which a wonderful romantic melody sounds that can distract you from everything ordinary and add a lyrical note to your mood. Such cafes are convenient and comfortable, which is why this place is an ideal option for a farewell party for an unmarried life.
If you don’t have the opportunity to visit a cafe or restaurant, don’t worry, it’s quite possible to create the appropriate environment at home. This will require a little more time and effort in preparation, and decorating the room will not be difficult.
Photozone
At a gala party, a Press wall with monograms, thematic inscriptions, brand images, and miniature portraits would be appropriate. A more complex option is an impromptu boutique facade (print, draw) or a poster with a New York cityscape (preferably in black and white) and a yellow cardboard taxi (50s) in the foreground .
Accessories for a photo shoot - hats, sunglasses, “diamond” tiaras, extremely long cigarette holders, funny sleep masks (from the movie, with golden eyelashes). You can make boxes, quotes in dialogue clouds, sponges, dog and cat masks on stick holders.
The color of the evening is blue
All elements, accessories, gifts, dishes, invitations should be decorated in the same color scheme: blue with shades is the king of the party. This color is considered signature in all Tiffany collections. You can combine it with white, pink or other shades of the primary color (for example, turquoise, purple, aqua), but the main thing is that everything looks harmonious and stylish.
Color spectrum
The base is the patented Tiffany Blue, and to prevent the design from becoming boring, use combinations of several shades. This color can be used to maintain almost all the decorations or just place accents (like in the film - cups, a bowl, a box of matches and other little things in the background).
Complete the basic color scheme with white/creamy (ideal for the background), pastel pink, mint or dark blue . The tandem with a black or chocolate shade is magnificent, including recognizable ornate patterns on the petals of paper flowers, napkins, frames, and drapery.
If you replace the black/chocolate with bright orange, you get a luscious summer vibe.
Drink of the evening – Martini
The trump drink at a bachelorette party based on the film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” is considered to be a martini, because it has a pleasant taste. This drink goes well with olives or a slice of juicy lemon, embodying relaxation and pleasure. Martini is the drink that will help create a festive mood. Less commonly used is champagne, which is also loved by girls.
Menu, serving
The table decoration is at the highest level - crystal, porcelain, ice sculptures, chocolate fountains, multi-tiered stands. (can be placed on a napkin or the stem of a glass) are suitable for decoration
A buffet table, a common table and seating for 2-4 people are equally appropriate. Light portioned snacks - kebabs, canapés and tartlets, mini sandwiches, salads in baskets, cold cuts. Include fish, cheeses, lots of fresh vegetables and fruits, caviar, seafood, and Tiffany salad for ambiance. The dishes are exquisite, served in a restaurant style, but without exoticism - classic European and/or American cuisine.
Drinks of the evening - martini, pink champagne, brandy, cognac. Prepare several cocktails, including non-alcoholic ones . There are a lot of simple recipes for blue/turquoise cocktails on the internet – take a couple of them for yourself.
Place a separate table with a can of instant coffee, a sugar bowl, cream, cookies and... yes, regular jars without labels and lids instead of the usual dishes.
Pay special attention to the design of the sweet table with a large selection of all kinds of desserts: cupcakes, macaroni, dragees, mousses, profiteroles, chocolate in any form. Use transparent dishes, skirts of a suitable shade, crystal and/or porcelain holders, and coasters. Everything is like at any buffet table, but in a thematic range.
Decorate desserts with edible “jewels,” ribbons, and Tiffani inscriptions. Useful chocolate for kindling, cream, glaze, mastic, confectionery topping in white, brown and turquoise/blue.
Selection of music, composition “MoonRiver”
Music is considered an indispensable attribute at any bachelorette party. For a Tiffany's themed party, music from the beloved movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is perfect. Also an excellent option are compositions of rock and roll, boogie-woogie, jazz, swing and other music of the 60s. Such music can be found and recorded on a disc, beautifully designed.
It's a good idea to organize funny competitions accompanied by music, as this will help entertain the guests. But the signature composition at the bachelorette party will be the composition “Moon River” by Henry Mancini, which at one time brought the coveted Oscar statuette to the composer. The video will help you listen to it, and at the same time watch the clip, plunging into the atmosphere of the movie:
Girlfriends' outfits
Tiffany's style is sophisticated and sophisticated. Therefore, when choosing what you will wear for this holiday, remember that the dress should be as simple and elegant as possible. A minimum of details - simple earrings, a string bracelet, etc. If you plan to wear jewelry, opt for items made of white gold and silver. Gold details will look vulgar.
Depending on the location of the bachelorette party, the outfits of the bride and guests may vary. For example, a bachelorette party in nature - offer your friends turquoise shorts and snow-white T-shirts. This outfit will not hinder movement and will look organic. You can tie turquoise ribbons on your hands, and a white one for the bride. If the bachelorette party is planned in a restaurant, then, of course, give preference to long evening dresses.
For a party on a boat in the summer, knee-length or slightly longer boiler dresses in the style of the 60s are suitable. Shades – white, turquoise, blue. Invite your friends to dress in mint dresses, and you, as the hero of the occasion, will dress in white. Or vice versa.
As for makeup, it should not be bright. The emphasis should be on the eyes - massive winged wings from the 60s will be the highlight of your image and the image of your friends.
Gift decoration in Tiffany style
What's a bachelorette party without gifts? Gifts should be decorated in the same way as the entire holiday. The gift itself can be absolutely anything, but, as a rule, they give beautiful underwear, jewelry (jewelry) or perfume. It is important that the box is the appropriate color.
If you were inspired to organize a bachelorette party in the style of “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” by the movie of the same name, then you should take care of the necessary accessories, pay attention to the preparations, and warn your girlfriends what style will be used for the celebration. Such a bachelorette party will turn out luxurious and stylish, and you will look charming by creating an original image.

Treats
The first thing that comes to mind is a lot of different airy blue and mint colored cakes, chocolate and a lot of champagne. If it’s a birthday with girlfriends, then that’s quite enough. But if there will be men, your relatives, at the celebration, then you need to come up with something more impressive. To begin with, it is better for everyone to order a la carte dish. Place several types of salads in baskets, canapés, and tartlets on the tables. A variety of cuts: meat, sausage, cheese, fruit. Seafood can be served on skewers like kebabs. The ideal drink of this style is champagne, but it is clear that not everyone loves it. You can make blue cocktails using Blue Curacao liqueur. If there are little guests at the celebration, you shouldn’t forget about them either and make the same cocktails only with syrup.
Organization and decoration of a bachelorette party. Whose task?
Generating brilliant ideas for the bride at her bachelorette party is the responsibility of her bridesmaid. Usually, this is a surprise for the hero of the occasion, and the rest of the girls, as a rule, are a little aware of the upcoming party. They also help the friend take into account certain points:
- find out where strippers are cheaper and meatier;
- they break into clubs that offer a couple of free cocktails for bachelorette partygoers;
- are looking for saunas in the city that can accommodate a crowd of 8 to 20 female people who want to warm up before the party. And other little things like that.
If the wedding is going to be small, without a celebration, guests or witnesses, then the scenario for fun is the work of your best friend or close relative. Mom, of course, rarely manages to guess how exactly her daughter hopes to have a fun bachelorette party. But my beloved sister will cope with the situation much better.
It happens that the bride herself becomes the initiator of her bachelor party. Like, who can come up with a better holiday for me than me?
In this case, the effect of surprise, unfortunately, is lost, but the chances of getting that gap that is worthy of the last unmarried days are noticeably increased.
Makeup tutorials from Holly Gallightly
You won't be able to quickly touch up rough paint by looking in the mailbox mirror. Although Holly masterfully coped with the makeup in 5 minutes, this time is clearly not enough for wedding makeup. To create an airy image of a very young girl, we need to accentuate the ideal skin color. To do this, you will need a particularly durable tone texture and transparent loose powder. Wide, well-drawn eyebrows, black arrows, fluffy eyelashes and bright lips will help bring the elegant 50s to life.
Dress code
Dress code is a very important point in holding a stylized birthday. To avoid disappointment, let your guests know in advance about your chosen style. This can be done beautifully in an invitation, which of course should also be issued accordingly. Elegant dresses, small handbags, hats, and gloves are ideal for women. For men, trousers and shirts, suits, ties and shirts. It looks very nice when everyone is dressed in the same color scheme. This is of course more complicated and costly, so decide for yourself. For more interest, you can hold a competition at the end of the evening for the best female and male image.
Disco "Chicago"
Classic style, the name is associated with jazz, retro outfits and the mafia. But this is far from true. Clothing in burgundy, blue, purple and black tones. Bright and very pale outfits will be inappropriate. Mandatory attributes: boa, stockings, high gloves, high-heeled shoes, pearl beads.
The bride must choose a bridesmaid who will play the role of her “bodyguard”.
Balloons, decks of cards, and photos of Chicago are used to decorate the hall. Entertainment: darts and water pistol shooting. You will have fun listening to jazz music.
Cocktails and alcohol are served in glassware, all other dishes are made of porcelain.
Liberated women can invite a stripper to their party, who will appear in the costume of a Chicago gangster.
Here's how to rest on the last day of “freedom”:
