How to Throw a Killer Bachelor Party

As the best man for your friend’s upcoming wedding, you bear the burden of planning the best bachelor party ever. This is the last big hurrah and night to celebrate, but with these tips, you can plan the greatest night of single celebration your buddies have seen.

 

Give a Nod to the Past

There are a lot of revelries that go into today’s bachelor celebrations, and the first official use of the term “bachelor party” from 1922 was used to describe a “jolly old” party. These old parties used to involve black-tie dinners that mimicked the toasts and celebrations of Spartan soldiers prior to their wedding nights. However, you can incorporate a night of food and fun with modern toasts and updated celebrations in order to honor this timeless tradition of honoring the groom.

Plan a Destination Party

Though your favorite friend might be about to join a life wedded bliss, there is still time to enjoy a weekend of fun with the guys. What better way than to create some crazy memories than to head to somewhere exotic or unique. Consider the habits and interests of the groom. Would he prefer the beach or a hike through woods? This could influence if you decide to book a swanky hotel near the coast or cabin in the woods for your destination. Not only that, but your destination choice helps with activity planning. For a coastal get-away, you could look into the Tropical Boat yacht charters down in Florida. If your planning takes you into a more nature-oriented destination, there are several glamping resorts that offer the best of both worlds. You will need to make sure that all the guys are aware of the cost estimate prior to planning since it would be rather boring if only you and the groom were able to make it to the party.

Use Apps for the Planning

The party doesn’t have to be expensive in order to be fun and entertaining, and planning ahead can help you save money for the big weekend. There are several smartphone apps that can make it easier for you to navigate the logistics of a destination bachelor party. Venmo is an app that makes it easy to split costs between several individuals and send money to cover your bills. If you are looking to save on lodging, you can use Airbnb to find comfortable accommodations that can fit any budget in just about any location. Viator is another one to use if you are looking for things to do in a location, and many of the activities allow you to book online so you have less stress when you get to your destination.

Bring the Fun

Your job in organizing the ultimate bachelor party is to make things run smoothly, all while bringing the fun. Your group of guys is ready to let loose, but make sure your weekend or night of awesome isn’t plagued by injury, illegal activities, or boredom. Make it about it the groom but be safe and fun. It will be an amazing weekend. Give yourself a high five.
