The Bachelorette Party In a Box kit is a large kit that has everything you need to really have an entire bacholorette party sold from Pipedream Products. It all comes in one large box, and the only things you really need to provide aside from this kit is the food, entertainment, guests, and items for the grab bags. The kit provides enough for 8 guests to be at your party. The box contains over a hundred different items and includes all the basics you’d go after including the invitations, paper plates, cups, gift wrap, and so much more.
The box is a pretty large box that contains all of your items with a picture of women on the front at a bachelorette party. There’s a handle at the top to make it easy to carry though the box isn’t that heavy. All of the individual items are packaged inside of the box. They are in their shelf packaging which does mean that it looks like someone just took this outer box and comprised a kit which is fine, but I would have preferred if they left the little cardboard headers off of each item. After all, it was nice to have everything nicely organized and packaged, but I just don’t feel very “green” with all of the extra trash.
According to the packaging list on the side of the box, this kit includes: 8 Pecker Sipping Straws, 8 Pecker knives, forks, and spoons, a Pecker Table Cloth, a Pecker serving tray, a Pecker string with those little triangles attached, 8 Pecker hats, cups, napkins and plates, 1 metallic, long banner that says “The Last Girl’s Night Out”, 8 Paper Pecker place mats, 8 party invitations and loot bags, 1 gift wrap, gift bag, and pecker centerpiece, a “Pin the Macho on the Man” game, 1 Nudie Doodle Pad, 1 deck of nude male playing cards, and a mystery gift. The listing does not say that it comes with “cocktail decoration peckers”, but my kit did. The listing also says that this comes with a “Pecker Ice Cube Mold” but mine did not.
Now, what surprised me is the misleading picture on the front. Really, Pipedream, I wish you’d update it. Like, a lot. It looks *obviously* nineties, and considering that most of your bachelorette party buyers is now in their twenties, it wouldn’t hurt to make it a bit more modern. PLUS, the packaging is misleading since the entire set is themed differently than what is shown in the box’s picture. The box shows a set that is covered in shirtless men – this is not what you get at all. Instead, (as my pictures show) you get an oddly pronounced cartoon penis that does look slightly stoned. He has awkwardly droopy eyes. While the shirtless men would have been outdated, I think I would have preferred them to the cartoon penis. All of the items had the cartoon penis theme except for the giftbag and the nude men playing cards.
All of the items in the kit are relatively high-quality. I won’t say they are amazing, but the straws tasted fine, the cups didn’t leak, and the paper plates, while flimsy, resemble the children’s themed paper plates you’d find at a party store. Since this is all one-night stuff, none of it really needed to be amazingly high-quality; it just needs to be enough for decoration and to do its function. I don’t think I need to explain some of the items (like plates or cups), so I’ll just stick to explaining the items that need it.
The Pin the Macho on the Man is a game of “pin the tail on the donkey”…but with a man’s penis. Make sure to open this box in advance since the penises aren’t actually cut out nor perforated – you will have to use scissors and snip them out yourself. The man poster hangs easily on the wall, and while there’s no included blindfold, you can find something around the house to blind your participants. All of the penises have little sayings on them like “This is for the girl who is friendly and fun” (well, not exactly that), so you are supposed to short the penises out for each woman by their personality before the party to add an extra element to the game.
The Nudie Doodle Pad is a nice big pad of paper that has a nude man on it – but the man’s private area is all blank, so you get to draw in whatever penis you’d like on the man. Or an elephant. Or whatever you’d like. Works great with regular pens and everything.
The Pecker Party Serving Tray resembles the penis cake pans you’ve probably seen except it’s plastic and can’t be microwaved nor put in the oven. It’s meant for snack food, and it holds nice and firm. We had some Goldfish crackers in it.
The center piece is just a picture of the cartoon penis and has a little pink fluffy decoration under it. (See the picture since I can’t describe it.) It comes with the paperclip already on it, and you just have to paperclip the fluffy part’s ends together to make it fluff.
The male nude playing cards were something we weren’t quite so impressed with. The guys look 90s-esque, and the guys are definitely nude. Their penises are hard as well. The guys are muscular and usually hairless on their chest as well. The cards don’t look bad, but I just didn’t find myself too attracted to some of the guys on the cards – either way, the deck works fine for playing a game of cards, but I’d still recommend you have more entertainment around than just that.
So what can be reused (assuming you had eight guests and they took all of your nonreusables): Pecker Party Serving Tray, Table Cloth, Metallic Banner, Center Piece, Pin the Macho on the Man, and the deck of male nude playing cards.
While I wasn’t having a Bachelorette party, I did invite some of my friends over for a “Fall Semester is Almost Over” party. I was sincerely surprised when we found that the entire theme was different than pictured on the box. However, all of the items did end up working well, and while the center piece got tossed around like a ball since nobody wanted “drugged penis”, it still was worth a lot of laughs and surprised everyone when I had it all set out. This kit didn’t allow us to pick our individual items, but I think it’s definitely worth it (for the savings in price as well as the ease) if you have eight guests or less planned. Thanks so much to Pipedream Products for sending me this kit, and you can pick up your Bachelorette Party in a Box.
