1. Venue
Choosing
the right location is crucial. It will not only determine how the event
will take place, but will also influence the amount of fun that the
groom together with his boys will have. Ideas on choosing location will
depend on the type of venue, the complimentary services offered if it is
a rented place, the cost, and also accessibility. The event may take
place in one of the organizers home where fun providers such as
strippers may be invited. Alternatively, the boys may opt for a private
club or a casino especially for the night. Other ideas for the venue
include outdoor venues such as campsite, or mountain lodge.
2. Groom’s Personal Character
Always
remember that this is the groom’s day, and not the boys. It is
therefore necessary to carefully analyze and understand what are the
tastes and preferences of the husband to be. He should be the centre of
attraction. A groom who is naturally conservative or due to religious
inclination may find it disturbing to go to a strip club or invite
gorgeous ladies over. A more outgoing or groom who loves the wild life
may also not be having much fun in a quite home setting that lacks
strippers, alcohol, or dare games. The best man should therefore ensure
he really has an idea of the groom’s likes and dislikes.
3. Activities
Bachelor
party ideas also take into consideration the type of activities that
will take place. Activities that take place during a bachelor night
traditionally comprise of beer drinking, hanging out in casinos, or
strip joints. Day activities will feature a road trip, fishing trip,
camping in the wild, bungee jumping, paintball, go-carting, skiing,
white water rafting, canoeing, sky diving, car racing, and much more.
Thinking of new and unique ideas always adds new life to the experience.
For instance, a mountaineering expedition, nature trek, or any other
activity that one has never taken part in, and is most likely not to do
so when married.
4. Timing
When
planning a bachelor party, timing is very important. Usually, the
parties are held a day before the big event. However, though this may
suit people who are travelling from far. It has always posed a challenge
to the husband to be. Exchanging marriage vows while intoxicated is
never such a good idea. The best man and his boys should start planning
for the event at least 2 months from the day. The bachelor night should
also take place a week or a few days to the matrimonial ceremony. This
gives room to the groom to sober up and reflect on his new life.
5. Crowd
The
life of a party is always determined by the crowd. There are several
ways of coming up with the right crowd. You may select a few friends who
are close to the groom, you may also ask family and friends to help
coming up with a list of friends. As a way of courtesy, the dad, brother
or dad-in-law may be invited to the event during its early stages. Once
they are out of the door, the wild night can begin.
The
goal of any stag or bachelor party is to say good bye to bachelorhood
in a fun way. However, it is also important to ensure that the planning
takes place in a responsible and safe manner while exercising due
diligence. It is not worth throwing out caution into the wind in the
name of partying. For instance, when engaging third parties such as
strippers, private clubs, or a catering service as part of bachelor
party ideas, it is always important to sign a contract prior to an
event. You do not want to be stood up in your final night of
bachelorhood, do you?
