Bachelor
Party Games, Events and Activities
Remember that bachelor parties are only has fun as the people and
activities. To this end, bachelor party games are always best planned
in advance. Reservations may be necessary so be sure you call in
advance to get details, availability, directions, and pricing.
Obviously your activities depend on your location but popular ideas
include:
- Paintball. Sure the paint
pellets sting like crazy but it's lots-oh-fun!
- Scavenger hunts. Thess
can be short, with just a few stops such as at a restaurant,
planned activity, then strip club, followed by a night club or two
and back to the hotel suite.
- Laser tag. Zap away!
- Karaoke! Before you sing
your first tunes, be sure to read the karaoke
etiquette guide.
- Poker tournaments.
- Go karting.
- Play football.
- Play a game of hockey.
- Plan a day at the golf
course.
- Party boats. Many cities
have boats that go out for a few hours to let you party hard!
- Helicopter rides.
- Rent a dune buggy and
drive through barren territory like crazy!
- Rent a limo. No, rent a
stretch limo hummer with a jacuzzi.
- Plan a bar hop.
- Nighclubs.
- Strip clubs (of course!).
Important
Tips for Planning a Bachelor Party
Most bachelor parties end safely and with a night full of great
memories. Still, the idea of a bachelor party often involves giving
the groom a hard time. Go ahead and stick a giant condom on his head,
attach his leg to a ball and chain and get him wasted, but always
remember that everyone has their limits. Here are a few points to keep
in mind.
Avoid having the bachelor
party the night before the wedding. Yes, the guests will be around
and in from out of town but it's just such a mistake to get married
with a hangover! Don't end up on America's Funniest Home Videos
where the bachelor is puking all over the place during the ceremony. Consider having the party
weeks in advance.
Rent a stretch limousine,
mini-van, or similar vehicle and make sure you have a designated
sober driver. Bring some cash for taxis.
Don't assume the bachelor
wants strippers or escorts although visiting a strip club is the
typical cool thing to do. You may want one when it's your turn but
your best buddy may not be into it.
Don't think of a bachelor
party as a free-for-all and invite friends of friends who don't
know the bachelor personally.
This is about the
bachelor, not the best man or the people who are planning the
party and coming up with ideas. If you think the bachelor isn't
going to be happy about something, don't do it.
