Andy Samberg is engaged to his girlfriend of five years, singer-songwriter Joanna Newsom. Many ladies mention “sense of humor” as an important trait in their future husband, and Joanna’s lucked out with Andy. Cute and funny, can you get any better?
If we were throwing her bachelorette party, we’d would focus on the humor aspect and go all out. The more ridiculous, the better! Want to throw your own funny bachelorette party? Take a look at these tips:
Decor:
Don’t overlook napkins and coasters–they’re prime opportunities to incorporate some funny sayings. We love these David napkins and Pick-Up Line Coasters. Use the colors of the napkins to influence the rest of your decor.
Activities:
A comedy club is a great place to let loose with the girls. Many serve food and drink, so you can make a fun night out of it. (Who knows, the single ladies may even find a funny guy of their own!) Call ahead to see if they have any special VIP tables or packages. Let them know the bachelorette’s name in advance, and the comedians may even single her out during their set!
Don’t forget to listen to some Samberg classics to and from the club. “Dick in a Box” was pretty much made for bachelorette parties!
Outfit:
Everyone will notice the bachelorette in this fun “Goodbye Singledom” tank top. Pair it with a pecker veil and a good sense of humor.
Gifts for the Bride:
Get her these gummy undies–funny and tasty!
Party Favors:
Pick out a humorous shot glass for each attendee. This is one of our faves!
What would you do for a funny bachelorette party? And how bummed are you that Andy Samberg’s taken now?
Nineteen-year-old Miley Cyrus is getting hitched to fiance Liam Hemsworth and talk show host Ellen took it upon herself to throw the teen a surprise bachelorette party on her show recently. During the interview a light appeared to explode on the set of the talk show and two maintenance men-turned-strippers ran out to help. They immediately started giving a shocked Miley a lap dance. Check it out for yourself!
So what do you think– would you want a lap dance at your bachelorette party? And would you ever want to receive a lap dance on national TV? Miley seemed to handle it pretty well. Perhaps it wasn’t her first lap dance?
Jennifer Aniston’s string of unlucky love stories seem to have come to an end. Now the Hollywood A-lister is engaged to Justin Theroux. The tattooed hunk is also an actor and seems to be smitten with Jen. Although a wedding date has yet been released we have been dreaming about planning Jen’s celebrity bachelorette party. Here are a few suggestions should the starlet need some assistance from the pros at The House of Bachelorette:
1. Creating a Grand Entrance: We think Jennifer Aniston’s bachelorette party needs to be big from the get-go. And that’s why we would have guests walk the pink carpet when they arrive. The pink carpet runner is just $8.99 at The House of Bachelorette.
2. Fun and Sexy Games: With BFFs like Chelsea Handler, Jen will need to keep her party fun and light. That’s why a game like Pin the Torpedo on the Sailor is perfect for her bachelorette bash. It’s only $9.99 at THOB and will definitely create some memorable moments– not to mention some fun photos for Instagram!
3. A Quiz for Friends: Jen knows the importance of great girlfriends. And surely her gal pals like Courtney Cox know her well, but we suggest putting them to the test with a fun game like How Well Do You Know the Bride? It’s $7.99 and works for two to 12 players.
4. Stick it to the Haters: Since her 2005 divorce from Brad Pitt, Jen has had her share of haters. Plenty of people seemed to pity her or wonder if she was still in love with Brad. But now that she’s officially moved on, we think she should send a message to all of those people who doubted that she would find love again. The “I’m Getting Married Bitches” tank top speaks loud and clear!
No matter what Jen decides to do for her bachelorette party we bet it will be a night to remember!
According to reports Mark Zuckerberg’s recent wedding to long-time girlfriend Priscilla Chan was so secret that guests didn’t even know they’d been invited. Fewer than 100 people showed up at the Zuckerberg/Chan affair at the couple’s Palo Alto home under the impression they were celebrating Chan’s graduation– not her wedding. Chan even is reported to have purchased her wedding dress under an alias to avoid suspicion.
Since the event came as a surprise to just about everyone, most people probably didn’t have time to buy a wedding gift for the Zuckerbergs or a bachelorette party gift for Priscilla Chan. So just in case you want to get her something– we think these gifts would be perfect:
Relationship Status Keychain: Mark Zuckerberg is now a billionaire and whether or not the couple signed a pre-nup doesn’t really matter. Priscilla is a part of the Facebook empire as well. Help her update her relationship status on or off Facebook with the cute Relationship Status Keychain, $16.99.
Bride Rhinestone Hoodie: Few things are important enough to get Mark Zuckerberg out of his signature hoodie. Thankfully he did wear a suit for his wedding to Priscilla Chan, but we’re guessing now it’s back to the hoodie. Priscilla can embrace her husband’s laid-back style while also looking like a cute bride with the Bride Rhinestone Hoodie. It’s fully customizable and just $42.99. Choose from black or white– or if you’re a billionaire bride you may want to get both!
Relationship Status Rhinestone Sash: Another way for Mrs. Zuckerberg to change her status is by wearing a cute Relationship Status Rhinestone Sash. While this one says engaged, it can be customized to say anything you want– including married! The sash sells for $18.99 and comes in six fun colors.
We wish the happy couple the best and hope that their relationship status forever says “married” on Facebook!

Blake Julian and His Bride-to-be Holly Durst Modeling a Sash From The House of Bachelorette
It’s been a pretty great couple of months for reality TV star Holly Durst. Not only did she meet her hunky new finance Blake Julian and get engaged in front of millions of people, but she also won $125,000 on the Bachelor Pad finale. The House of Bachelorette caught up with Holly last week at a benefit for Water of Life, a non-profit digging wells in Third World countries.
Of course since we knew we were going to be meeting up with one of the hottest couples in reality TV right now, we wanted to give Holly a little engagement gift. We packed one of our popular bride totes full of fun stuff including a feather boa, the Perfect Bride To Be Tiara and a white Bride Tank. She loved her Super Bling Sash so much she even modeled it for us! These are a brand new item for The House of Bachelorette and we were excited Holly was one of the first to wear this fun accessory!
Holly and her fiance Blake Julian are now calling Greenville, South Carolina home. Blake is opening up a new dental practice this week and Holly is putting the finishing touches on her children’s book Chocolate Socks. They haven’t announced a wedding date yet but we wish them the best! And we bet Holly’s bachelorette party will be a night to remember!
Kim Kardashian walked down the aisle earlier this month and said “I do” to Kris Humphries. People magazine paid big bucks for the exclusive wedding photos, but it turned out they weren’t that interested in the happy couple– they were mainly focused on Kim K. The magazine left the groom off the cover and some sources say Kim is upset about having the spotlight to herself.
Reports say that Kim is worried the snub will offend her in-laws. And every bride knows that can be a big concern with a new marriage. People paid $1.5 million for the pictures, according to sources, so maybe they deserve to do whatever they want with the photos. But maybe stories saying that Kim was upset were blown out of proportion. The NYPost reported that Kim’s rep explained: “Kim of course wanted Kris to be on the cover, but it was People’s decision…everyone, including Kris understood…No one is upset.”
In exactly one month Kate Middleton and Prince William will become husband and wife in the royal wedding of the century. Kate is becoming a pro at keeping things secret surrounding the wedding. If you like the idea of keeping your bachelorette party hush hush, just take a cue from bride-to-be Kate Middleton’s sister Pippa.
According to UK’s Daily Mail the bride’s younger sister and maid of honor Pippa Middleton is in charge of planning the “hen party” which is the UK version of a bachelorette party. She’s planning one party in London and another “Dirty Dancing” themed party at the Middleton home in Bucklebury, Berkshire.
In order to keep the London party under wraps, Pippa has booked four different venues. That way no one will know where the party is until the actual night of the event. “None of the girls know where they will be going – and won’t until the actual day,” a source tells the paper.
Reese Witherspoon and her fiance Jim Toth are supposedly getting married in just a few days– March 26th to be exact. It’s a southern-themed wedding according to Hollywood insiders. There will be about 100 guests showing up to Reese’s estate in Ojai Valley, California. We thought it would be fun to plan Reese’s bachelorette party. So here are some of our suggestions for this beautiful, sweet starlet.
We can’t help but think of Reese as a delicate, girly girl. So that’s why we think this Engaged Headband/Veil from The House of Bachelorette’s classy bride collection would be ideal for her bachelorette bash. It’s currently on sale for $9.99.
And because whoever said orange was the new pink is seriously disturbed, we’ve got the passion pink marabou boa. It’s just $1.99 and perfect for a fun night in LA with the girls.
Reese really can’t go wrong with feathers, so we think she should add a few more to her bachelorette ensemble with the feather bracelet, just $1.99.
This bride tote seems to have a little touch of southern charm. It’s springy, sweet and practical, just like Reese herself. Pick one up for the bride-to-be in your life for just $21.99.
We wish Reese the best and hope her bachelorette party is a night to remember!
According to some entertainment news sources, Prince William has decided to have a bachelor party at sea. That way he can have fun and privacy without worrying about paparazzi. While most brides-to-be don’t have to worry about the paps crashing their bash, the idea of celebrating the single life at sea does sound fun! A bachelorette party can get crazy, so why not take a cue from the Prince himself and have a wet and wild bachelorette party?
If you want to have a bachelorette party at sea you’ll definitely want to hit up TheHouseofBachelorette.com first for some supplies. No need for the tight black dress and uncomfortable pumps– look the part with your favorite swim suit. Grab some pink beach balls, just $1.99, to play with and pose with for great bachelorette party pictures. Give each girl their own flower hair clip, $.99, to wear during the party and as a momento for remembering your fun party at sea.
According to reports, Prince Harry will be at this bachelor party along with 20 of William’s closest friends. We’re still waiting to hear what his bride Kate Middleton will be up to for her bachelorette party. Any guesses?
