Organizing a Ladies’ Night Out despite the pandemic?
Every bride waits a very long time for her dream bridal shower. This one unique evening/weekend, on which all the expectations and dreams of the main character come true. This is quite a challenge for a witness in times of the SARS-COV2 pandemic, especially since for such an event, one sometimes waits for months, and the restrictions are still moving.
Apartment rental for a Ladies’ Night out, and SARS-CoV-2?
The restrictions
also affected the accommodation base, very drastically. Occasional, short-term rentals due to the COVID-19 pandemic even became impossible for entertainment purposes. Maiden suite rentals, were only possible for certain groups and professions, e.g. Soldiers, medical services, lawyers, etc. The use of apartments/nights was also available to those who were on a business trip with a legitimate reason.
Use of the accommodation, involved filling out a statement on one of the reasons why a person is entitled to use the accommodation service. It was a statement with criminal liability. In addition, a document authorizing it had to be presented. Renting a suite for a bachelor or bachelorette party was out of the question.
Interventions by the police and sanitation when a statement and document was falsified by a witness and the party was lavish enough for the services to get a call were sporadic though they did occur.
Limited number of maiden attractions due to COVID-19 pandemic
Restrictions have greatly affected the entire entertainment industry. The best ideas and attractions for spending a bachelorette party in and around Warsaw have become obsolete. The 2020 summer season has gone down in history very negatively due to coronavirus. Major festivals where weekend ladies could be found have been canceled.
Transportation by limousines and party buses with restrictions has become impossible. Huge resorts with attractions near Warsaw closed. Team attractions such as paintball, bowling etc. closed until further notice. Integration on Vistula boat cruises suspended. Clubs halted from work. Stagnation in the industry was a period of rethinking and a rest from strong partying, to return with renewed vigor in 2021!
Not only in Poland, but all over the world the situation is tragic, such as in our western neighbors:
Limited number of people at Ladies’ Night out in Pandemic
The biggest problem is the limited number of participants at gatherings. Organizing a bachelorette party involves the challenge of adjusting to the limitations. A maximum of 5 people is definitely not enough to gather all the closest friends and some of the family of the bride-to-be for the dream Maiden’s Evening in Warsaw. At one point in the pandemic, only 2 people could get together – the bride and groom and the witnesses are not hen parties!
Over time, as the strictures associated with the pandemic “melt away,” there is definitely a more comfortable situation. It is then not necessary to limit the number of participants in the bachelorette party so drastically to party in a complete group. Definitely, in many cases, it is better to wait to actually do the party “with a bump” as befits a traditional bachelorette party!
Distance of 2 meters between people during COVID-19
Along with restrictions on the number of people at social gatherings (including bachelor and bachelorette parties), there must be a distance of 2 meters between unrelated people. Every social outing in the city violated COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, and the financial penalties at one point were very severe.
Restrictions had to be maintained in limousines, for example, which meant that the chauffeur could only take half the people he could normally transport. Party Bus, which took 20 people on board, had to limit the number of passengers to 10 participants. Of course, prices for services did not decrease proportionally.
Mandatory anti-viral masks at the Ladies’ Night out
The obligation to wear masks is the most inconvenient part of riding transportation, moving outdoors (restrictions on wearing masks outdoors, also were for a period of time) or accompanying any social gathering. It often happened that despite having 1 mask each tucked away in several places, at some point the one and only mask was missing. The coronavirus pandemic was not conducive to evening, bachelorette-type get-togethers, and masks made this very difficult.
One of the reasons for refusal of entry to the clubs for a ladies’ night out, was the lack of a mask, at least in one of the girls by which, whole groups often gave up the fun in the premises or searched after the nearby “frogs” the last free pieces of masks.
Shopping malls closed during SARS-COV 19 coronavirus
Some people are not in favor of online shopping, so the days of closed shopping malls meant the inability to stock up on the necessary gift for the bride-to-be. Witnesses who wanted to touch the fabric of the lingerie they planned to purchase or smell the perfume they planned to choose for a bridal gift became impossible. Buying balloons and filling them with helium was also impossible, which always added to the charm of this type of bachelorette party.
Shopaholics had a tough nut to crack, making the help of a psychologist essential. Also subjected to additional stress, were the witnesses or attendees of the party, who stressed whether their plan for the bachelorette party would work out and surprise the bride-to-be.
Service establishments closed for Ladies’ Nights nationwide
All closed. The possibility of organizing a legendary ladies’ night out are limited due to the closure of many venues. All clubs, bars, restaurants, public meeting places do not function. And if they are functioning then they will immediately get a fine and a call for repayment of funds from the crisis shield.
The panic in the market has reached everyone associated with the bachelorette party industry, as well as companies involved in organizing similar events. The same goes for bachelor parties, birthday groups, corporate events or team building events.
Ladies’ night out ended with a mandate during a pandemic
This is a very extreme case. In a situation of blatant violation of the restrictions due to a lavish celebration of a bachelorette party, the police may appear. This is not an American sexy cop. Real Polish police, not an erotic dancer straight from the New York Police Department. Although it may still happen to be a real stripper! – this is the more pleasant scenario J
In the case of the Polish police, maiden girls are most often threatened with an instruction – of course, it depends on which policeman you run into. There is nothing to argue, but to show remorse and bring the situation under control. Negative emotions and aggression, will not help here. Police officers carry out interventions on request, let’s respect this, and they will not destroy your planned maiden voyage.
Unfortunately, in some situations, organizing this type of birthday party, bachelorette party or bachelor party can end up with a solid fine or even a case in court. Follow the Polish government’s coronavirus-related announcement for each weekend. The first months as the pandemic broke out in March 2020 were a worldwide outage. The Sars-Cov2 virus brought the world to a standstill for several months.
Cancellation of the Ladies’ Evening – reasons
The situation is uninteresting when the bride is put under quarantined. Prohibition of movement, contact with others, prohibition of participation in your own bachelorette party! A situation that happened very often. All it took was inattention and an encounter with someone who had contact with a person infected with the virus involved isolation for 2 weeks. Installing an app that controls where you stay. Police inspections, which have become the norm, who called and invited you to the doors, windows of apartments or houses to see if you are sure to observe the quarantine.
The situation was dire when the bride’s SARS-COV-2 coronavirus test result was POSITIVE. Not enough that the bachelorette party will not take place, but fear for life and health! Painstaking analysis of whom she may have infected and whether the recent encounter has also resulted in other loved ones being infected with this dangerous virus. The biggest concern, one always had for those in the risk group (the elderly) who had comorbidities.
Covid hospitals by lack of places forced infected people to stay at home while circumstances arose for new admissions. Telephone recommendations from doctors did not yield much, and caused even more anxiety.
Location for Ladies’ Night out in pandemonium
All hotels and grazing apartments closed. The previously mentioned restaurants and clubs, also closed. Therefore, in the above situation, the only reasonable solution remains. This is undoubtedly to spend time at home, and move the organization of a lavish bachelorette party to another date, as the situation calms down a bit.
An equally good idea for the maiden seems to be a trip to the plot. Each of us has some uncle, friend, or friend of friends who has a summer house on the water or in the mountains. Unofficially, you can get along and have a wonderful time in a charming atmosphere.
Division of duties at the Ladies’ Evening during Covid-19
The witness will divide the duties. Great how each participant herself will come out to help and look for a solution to get out of a difficult situation, or get involved in preparing snacks, decorating the living room, ordering a cake, organize games so that everyone takes an active part in the bachelorette party. Those involved, will be much more likely to enjoy and reap the full benefits of the event. A common goal and success unites especially in the face of a crisis and emergency situation, which is undoubtedly the maiden organization in the era of the coronavirus.

Summary of Ladies’ Evening in pandemic
A few, have used the services of professional
COMPANIES
, who know how to comply with the strictures, and at the same time give at least a substitute for a bachelorette party, as tradition dictates! Pandemicnotwithstanding, it did not mean an organizational flop for the bachelorette party, if the right help was used.
The entire industry, where people were partying until dawn, froze. People look longingly at Mazowiecka Street in Warsaw, or Piotrkowska Street in Lodz. This period of downtime, indicates the abandonment of organized events for several months and the postponement of maiden events to future dates. Accumulation of such events will begin to abound next season.
