Any thrill seeking bride will love the idea of taking over a theme park with her closest friends.

6) Throw a Casino Night
Try your luck with a festive casino night. Sure you could always make the trip to Las Vegas, but for a more personalized approach, you could rent your own games and play for fun instead of money. Personalized poker chips that say "bride to be" or feature her soon-to-be married name, would add just the right sentimental touch.
