Bravo stars love a themed party. From birthday bashes to unforgettable Halloween celebrations, there has been no shortage of memorable parties. In honor of the network’s dedication to having its stars dress up in silly little outfits for their celebrations, let’s take a look back at some of the greatest themed parties in Bravo history. 

Stassi & Ariana’s winter-themed birthday party (Vanderpump Rules)

Ariana Madix was never the biggest fan of Stassi Schroeder, so fans were shocked when she agreed to throw a joint birthday party with Stassi in Season 7. The two Cancer queens decided to combine their powers and plan a winter-themed party and it was epic.

Stassi and Ariana dressed as ice queens, Tom Schwartz wore an elf costume, and Tom Sandoval wore a custom headpiece and a white fur jacket. The party was legendary and it was nice to see Ariana and Stassi getting along for a change. They even honored Stassi’s Season 1 birthday disaster by screaming, “It’s our f*cking birthday” in unison. Chef’s kiss! 

Lindsay’s murder mystery party (Summer House)

In Season 4 of Summer House, Lindsay Hubbard transformed their Hamptons haven into a crime scene for her murder mystery birthday party. The cast ditched their bikinis and speedos for 1920s-themed costumes, which was glorious. Carl Radke smoked a fake pipe, Paige DeSorbo and Lindsay got in a fight, and Amanda Batula spoke in a bad Southern accent all night. Perfect!

Dorinda’s Halloween party (Real Housewives of New York City)

Season 10 of Real Housewives of New York kicked off with Dorinda Medley’s Halloween party. In typical RHONY fashion, the ladies took the dress code very seriously and showed up in some unforgettable looks. Dorinda dressed up as Lady Gaga, Ramona Singer recreated Britney Spears’s “Oops! I Did It Again” costume and Luann de Lesseps wore a problematic Diana Ross outfit.

In Season 7 of Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra Judge decided to have some fun and throw an 80s-themed party. The ladies of RHOC came to play with their 80s-inspired ensembles. Alexis Bellino went full-on Madonna, Tamra channeled 80s workout chic, and Vicki Gunvalson wore leg warmers.

Amanda’s 30th birthday party (Summer House)

Amanda celebrated her 30th birthday in the Summer House by throwing a 90s-themed party. The cast dug out their tube tops, bandanas, and bucket hats for the event and it was a lot of fun. Amanda showed off her skills on a pogo stick while Kyle Cooke scrambled to find his girlfriend a birthday gift (geez). Overall, it was a great party. 

Ariana’s kid-themed birthday (Vanderpump Rules)

Amanda wasn’t the only Bravo star celebrating her 30th birthday with a nostalgia party. VPR star Ariana threw a kid-themed party for her 30th. The throwback bash included a bouncy castle, face paint, snow cones, and more. 

Ariana described the intention behind the party in a confessional, stating that the birthday bash was a way of reconnecting with her youth. 

“Basically, what I’m doing is reaching back into my childhood and grabbing all the cool stuff from the parties when I was a kid and injecting them with performing-enhancing drugs,” she said. 

Kyle’s 35th birthday party (Summer House)

In Season 2 of Summer House, Kyle celebrated his 35th birthday with a Boston Tea Party-themed birthday bash. The cast wore powdered wigs and took way too many shots. 

The party was full-on chaos. Lindsay and her ex-boyfriend Everett Weston hooked up in the woods, party-goers poured tea into the pool, and Kyle’s birthday cake said 53 instead of 35.

Kyle summed it up best when he said, “This is the most outrageous birthday party in the history of mankind.” 

Alien Invasion (Summer House)

In Season 8 of Summer House, the cast threw an alien-themed party. The celebration was a success with the cast sporting galactic-chic attire. Ciara Miller wore an alien mask, Danielle Olivera and Gabby Prescod fought over a guy, and Kyle got distracted by flashing lights. It was a great party.

Will Bachelor in Paradise Return for Season 10?

Bachelor in Paradise has always been a huge hit with Bachelor Nation fans. The spin-off features cast from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, who failed to find love the first time around. Some viewers find BIP to be better than the original Bachelor shows, it’s interesting to watch the cast from different seasons mingle.

Despite being extremely popular for years, BIP has gone downhill recently. Season 9 was a particular low for the spin-off. It even left some viewers questioning if there would be a tenth season. While this is still unclear since nothing has been confirmed, it seems that this speculation may unfortunately become a reality.

Chris Harrison claimed BIP had been “postponed”

A clue that pointed toward a possible cancellation of BIP was a claim from former Bachelor host Chris Harrison. Of course, it’s been a hot minute since Chris was involved with the franchise after he stepped down in 2021. Despite having moved on from his Bachelor gig, Chris still knows the franchise inside and out.

In February, Chris claimed that he heard BIP had been postponed, and hinted that it may have even been canceled. While these theories were shot down, there had to be a reason why Chris suggested them in the first place. Chris hosted multiple seasons of BIP, and can surely see that it isn’t the same as it used to be. There’s no good reason for Chris to stir the pot with Bachelor Nation fans. This idea must’ve come from somewhere.

Since Chris hasn’t been involved with the Bachelor franchise for a few years, take his words with a grain of salt. Nonetheless, there could be some substance to Chris’ claims, which didn’t seem to come out of thin air.

BIP Season 9 had a 0% success rate

Another factor that could prevent BIP Season 10 is the low success rate of Season 9.

While three couples decided to leave the season together, none of them lasted very long after. Kylee Russell and Aven Jones left as a couple after Aven expressed that he wasn’t ready to get engaged. After hard launching their relationship following the airing of the finale, Kylee received multiple messages alerting her of Aven’s infidelity. The former couple ended their relationship immediately, which was a disappointment to many viewers.

Aaron Bryant and Eliza Isichei got engaged during the Season 9 finale, along with Kat Izzo and John Henry Spurlock. Shortly after the finale aired, both of these former couples also revealed that they had broken up. As a result, no successful couples came from Season 9, which was pretty sad to see.

The failed relationships of Season 9 looked pretty bad for the Bachelor franchise, which puts the future of the spin-off into question. While another season could potentially redeem BIP, Season 9 left a bad taste in viewers’ mouths that may be hard to get rid of.

The Golden Bachelor & Bachelorette could overshadow BIP

Finally, it is a possibility that The Golden Bachelor, as well as The Golden Bachelorette, could eventually replace BIP. The Golden Bachelor aired alongside BIP Season 9 in the fall and was much better received by viewers as opposed to the latter. Furthermore, The Golden Bachelorette was recently confirmed to be in production as well, making it the fifth current Bachelor Nation show.

The Golden Bachelor shows may eventually kick BIP off the schedule entirely, as it would be hard to make room for. It was hard to keep up with The Golden Bachelor and BIP at the same time, so it is unlikely that more than one show will air at a time going forward. Since each Bachelor show typically lasts two to three months, it would be hard to fit five full seasons into each year.

While this is of course all just speculation, there is a real possibility that BIP could be coming to the end of its days. If BIP were to receive a tenth season, it would need to be miles above Season 9 to save the spin-off. This would be hard to do, as it has not produced many successful couples as of late. When it comes to The Bachelor franchise, however, anything is possible. We hope that BIP is far from over, but we aren’t confident that it is at the moment.
