Party Guide - Organisation
Being organised is the key to a great party especially if it a stag or hen weekend. This is not a time to rely on spontaneity to do your mates proud - there is nothing worse for a stag or hen party than an uninspired night, spending half the time traipsing around a city centre which you don't know, without any idea of where to go. If your thinking of just meeting at a pub and then heading off without any plans, rest assured, you've got more chance of being hit by lightening than being the guy you organised the best party ever.
Party Guide - Choosing Your Dates & Location
It goes without saying that you'll have a range of people at the party so budgets and availability will have to be considered. If you are having a stag or hen party please please please don’t go for the easy option and have it in your own town. It’s their last weekend of freedom and it should be held in another city far far away from all family etc.
Choosing your dates is also important if you want cheap flights don’t book public holidays or when big sporting events are happening in specific cities e.g. Edinburgh has a lot of rugby weekends.
BOOK EARLY don’t leave it to the last minute, it’s a nightmare trying to find a hotel for 20 people. Also bear in mind that some hotels will not accept stag and hen bookings.
Party Guide - Invitations
Do you invite the in laws or not? It depends whether they are up for a party and understand what happens on tour stays on tour or if they are likely to go mad watching the stag or hen enjoy a saucy stripper…
Once you’ve got rough dates and prices then inform everyone. You will probably get almost 90% of people saying yes initially the key is to get them to pay a deposit. You will soon find out who is serious.
Party Guide - Plan Activities
Don’t just leave everyone just to drink, organise daytime and night time events from paintballing through to a night at the dogs. Make sure everyone eats this helps soak up the beer. Also enjoy your weekend don’t let 1 or 2 people spoil the party, keep an eye on the loud mouths and put them in a taxi and send them home if they’re becoming to much.
