How about a jog to Port Authority?

Start the bachelorette party with a visit to the Museum of Sex? That should prime you all for the night out, don'tcha think?!? It's open Saturdays until 8pm. And they'll give you group price.

"High tea" is often misused to suggest something elegant; that is "afternoon tea." in Britain, "high tea" is a hearting working-class supper. (NYT style guide)

I went to a bachelorette party a few months ago and it was a total blast, complete with naughtiness and all. We went to dinner and drinks and then the Duplex to listen to fun tunes and get free drinks from boys and finally made our way to "Boys Room". It is a gay bar in the E Village and they do happy hour from 10 - 11 or 10 - 12??? The place is full of hot boys and oversized TVs playing porn. I watched the bachelorette get pulled on the bar/ stage and "do the dirtiness" with two guys (basically, she could have been pregnant by the end of the night by who, who knows). The boys totally took care of us and we got great pictures and plenty of free drinks and it was not a trashy, male strip club. This was a real, NYC, boy on boy bar full of shaved chests and all. If your bachelorette is looking for naughtiness, I recommend late night at, "Boys Room". It's not cheating if he is gay - right?

I threw what I (and the bride) thought was a fun party recently. We had dinner at Essex and then walked down the street to the Slipper Room where we had a booth to ourselves for drinking, some dancing and an odd burlesque show. I'll admit to making the bride wear a veil with cute little devil horns, which she did hate, but the pictures are classic! Have fun!

I hosted a bachelorette party two weeks ago... we started at Highline for Thai food(delish), then went to Rise for some overpriced (and oddly cinnamon tasting) drinks, then onto Mehenata, Peter McManus Cafe (cheap pitchers) and ended our night at Muse Karaoke. We closed the joint down and everyone in our party agreed it was the most fun they'd had since college. And not one of us had on a penis hat.

my question is why do you all still do bachelorette parties if you all secretly really hate them?? Do you realize that every single one of you tells all of your guy friends that you "hate those things"? You think you're the only one? YOu should all get together and finally agree ... no more stupid bachelorette parties!! Leave that whole final blowout thing to the guys. It's the men that are losing their freedom.

I must second, third and fourth Janine's suggestions: Do not go to Culture Club - only the bride-to-be gets in free and the others ending up spending a lot for a questionable time. Having a nice dinner and drinks with friends is usually a great plan, followed by drinks and some bachelorette parlor tricks (get those flash cards with things the bride has to do...) where you have to approach strangers at bars. Also highly recommend: Erotic balloons, which are sure to embarrass the bride.
