Bachelor Party: where and when?
Weeks before the big day, one of the most anticipated events for the groom’s friends traditionally takes place: the bachelor party. Revelation, confidences, relaxation and guaranteed laughs are the elements of this cocktail party, sometimes explosive, but always intimate and familiar. Leaving aside the mystery that usually surrounds this event, there are many ways to make it an unforgettable experience for everyone. Because, in the end, the only important thing is to spend time with your friends and say goodbye to your single life in a symbolic way. Still not sure of the plan? Here are some ideas.
Choosing between a discreet dinner to a weekend in Las Vegas in the style of Hollywood’s biggest stars. When it comes to organizing a bachelor party, the line between the two extremes is wide enough and full enough of nuances to find a middle ground that elevate your fun to the maximum. The truth is, in pandemic times, intimate bachelor parties in private venues have become increasingly popular. A rural house with beds for everyone where you can spend the night and end the party in the early hours of the morning is always a good option. If it’s summer, the pool will add an edge to the event. And of course, a DJ playing the music that will remind you of your nights at the disco will be the perfect finishing touch to this special date.
A boat is another of the coolest scenarios for a bachelor party with character. On this occasion, you also can’t miss the music, and of course, this should be scheduled in the warmer months, where the temperature allows you to finish on the water if you feel like it. To extend the plan, you can hire a catering service to prepare a relaxed dinner at sunset and continue to enjoy the landscape until the night prevents you from seeing it.
If you are looking for a more ambitious and extensive plan, a bachelor party that lasts a whole weekend will be the best option. The important thing is to spend time together, so it is advisable to look for a nearby destination so that the experience is not stressful and tiring. The style will depend on your tastes; adventure, sport, beach and relaxation, music, gastronomy or a wide range of night and day leisure activities will be aspects to consider before choosing. Pack your bags and have fun!
How about surprising them yourself? As the groom, you can use this meeting to officially notify them of their role in the wedding, or let them know that they are special to you in an original way, for example by personally bottling some beers or the wine to be consumed during dinner. A speech that reminds you the beginning of your friendship, your high school days or the best childhood anecdotes is another endearing way to convey to them the role you play in their lives. They will love it.
When is the best moment?
The bachelor party is always held before the wedding, in honour of its name and tradition. It can take weeks or even months. It all depends on the particular plan you choose, the season or the weather. It is easier to arrange a discreet dinner a few days before the wedding, than a weekend getaway or a plan that involves spending the night away from home. In the latter case, we recommend scheduling it at least two weeks before the wedding, as in the days before the wedding you will need to finalize the details of the event and be at 100%.
Although the organization is usually left in the hands of friends, if you are the groom it is always advisable to have a minimum of control over what is happening in order to avoid unexpected surprises, especially if you decide to schedule it a few days before the ceremony.
Take note of these proposals, mix and match, explore and find out which bachelor party will make you feel most comfortable. In the end, every groom is unique and the concept of fun is not the same for everyone. The most important thing will undoubtedly be to find the plan that best suits you. It’s certain that there will be some surprises that you won’t be able to avoid, so open your mind and get ready to enjoy a unique experience that you’ll always remember.
