Top Dos And Don'ts Of Throwing The Best Bachelor Party

The Spartans would enjoy the night before a man’s wedding, raising toasts and feasting, and this is how the tradition of a bachelor party originated. With the passage of time, dinner and feasting was replaced by copious amount of alcohol and partying through the night! Though it is nice to have a great showdown for the ending bachelorhood, there are some things that should not be done, no matter how much your heart twitches to add it to your party.

So, what should you be doing and what not, so as to avoid being ripped bare after the bachelor party craziness? If you are the best friend of the bride or the groom, who is planning the hen's or bachelor party, here is a list of some dos and don’ts that we have got just for you.

Do: Make sure the Groom/Bride know the guest list

Don’t be fooled by ‘more the merrier’. Put some thought into who should and should not be invited. It is better for you that the guests are not just ‘acquaintances’. So, stick to the “best and good” friends list. Also, do not invite the family members of the bride/groom, until and unless you have been asked to, by the man or the lady of the hour! This will let them be at ease throughout the celebrations. They would also not think twice before donning a crazy avatar for the night (wink!). And, if possible, run the guest list by them before sending out the invitations.

Don’t: Allow mobile phones

Are you or any guests planning to be on phone– checking in/tagging/clicking- throughout the night? We suggest you switch off your phones and keep a digital camera handy instead. If not, then an “oath ceremony” is recommended before the “fun” begins! Ask the guests to avoid clicking pics or putting statuses on Facebook, which might get the bride or the groom in any trouble.

Keep away from phones to avoid the revelries of the night being revealed to anyone outside your circle. A hedonist night with enough evidence (read: photographs) can be detrimental. Now, nothing is worse than crying over spilt milk, is there? So, stay off the record!

Do: Pay for groom’s/bride’s expenses

Round 1 of planning a friend’s bachelor party is discussing budgets. Everyone who pitches in should know that the cheque would be split. If the expenditure is exceeding the cash in hand, cover the cost by throwing in a few extra bucks. It would be silly to have the man/woman of the night empty their pockets. A bad aftertaste is guaranteed, if they do end up doing so. If you want the bride or the groom to contribute to their party expenses as well, then make sure you talk to them beforehand. But at the same time, you must remember that they already have huge wedding budgets looming over their heads!

Don’t: Party the day before the wedding

Her pre-bridal and his grooming sessions will come to nothing if you get them to party a day before their wedding. Who wants to be seen hungover with dark circles and blood-shot red eyes all signalling to a ‘party all night’ scene?

A gap of a couple of days is intelligent planning, but consent of all participants is equally important!

Do: Tailor events according to interests

The course of action should be run by the lady/man of the night because the party is not about ‘you’! To include activities that interest them will make them feel special. For instance, if they love riverside camps, you can organise a bonfire and have activities planned accordingly; or if they love music, you can organise a musical night, but do consider the genre they love. We are sure, being their best friend, you know what they would like and what they would want. Keeping their interests in mind will surely make them fall head-over-heels for you!

Don’t: Get too adventurous

This is to say that you must avoid anything that is a risk, like extreme sports that might end up with a fractured rib, couple of bruises or a twisted arm. Don’t give in to anyone’s countless pleas (not even your own heart’s!). Keep your mind on the aftermath, and how this could spoil the wedding extravaganza.

An arm in sling with all that bling is not a pleasant sight, is it? The bride might want to go bungee jumping before her wedding, but a week before the D-day is not a good time for that.
