DustySaltus Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Anyone ever planned a bachelor party before? I'm the best man for my buddy's wedding. He lives in Washington D.C., i'm in NY and most of the people going are from either of those two places (about 20 guys). Should I make it a one night or entire weekend affair? Any veteran tips? I know the obvious things to plan, but i'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas. Thanks DS Link to post Share on other sites
tahoebuffy Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 (edited) It all depends. First check on the financial situations of the attendees, not an in depth interogation mind, but a casual screening. Guys delivering pizza wont be able to afford a weekend long affair. Also, the marital status of attendees will matter greatly. Dont just plan it for the single guys looking for some tail. There are lots of coupled men out there whose wives/girlfriends will not take kindly to their men being gone on a weekend long sinfest involving massive amounts of alcohol and strange naked women. This crap can ruin relationships, trust me. Most especially, check with the groom first. If he thinks his fiance might call off the wedding due to stripper interference, you may want to consider a sans boobs event. That said, a full day affair is a nice medium, starting out with breakfast, then move on to a totally guy worthy event, such as paintball. Men never feel more like men than when they are crawling through the dirt shooting at people. Paintball sites are easily found online and many have group rates and some even have bachelor party rates that include lunch. After paintball, showers will be in order, and then the nightlife. At a bachelor party I witnessed, the best man took us to a race track that offered go kart racing in cars that go 60mph on a slick track. It was awesome, as close to being a race car driver as the average joe is likely to get. Another great option is a shooting range that provides weapons of mass destruction, sort of. Nothing in the world like firing a belt fed 50 cal. to get that testosterone flowing. Machine guns are fun too, one place I saw even offered flame throwers. White water rafting is a nice option if you want to do a weekend affair. The line is often drawn at a strip club, meaning that many women will be okay with one of those as there is no sex in the chamagne room, so to speak. Private in home strippers are universally hated by wives and fiance's alike, because seriously, who hasnt heard the story of the stripper and her lollipop?

dazzle22 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Yes, take the high road and go with war and gratuitous violence, as opposed to the dirty skank whore stripper situation that all the women involved by one degree of separation will HATE you for....ha! I HATED it when I knew my husband was going to his friend's bachelor weekend at Tahoe and there were going to be naked skank whores... Link to post Share on other sites
