So, your best friend is getting married and asked you to be his best man. There’s a lot of fun and good times that come with being a best man, but there’s a lot of responsibility as well. You know the groom better than anyone (except maybe his bride-to-be), and it’s important to remember this night is about him and what he enjoys—and what will ensure he makes it to the wedding. Check out this guide filled with unique bachelor party ideas the entire group will enjoy.
Ski trip
Weekend trip bachelor parties are rapidly growing in popularity. Take a road trip up to the mountains, rent a cabin, bring some of the groom’s favorite liquor, and get on the slopes. If he’s an avid skier, he will love it. If he’s the outdoors type but has never been skiing, it’s a great opportunity to learn a new hobby.
Yacht party
Most bachelor parties run the groomsmen quite a few dollars; save the money you would have spend on booze on a pub crawl or night at the club and use it to rent a yacht for the day or go luxury yachting. Bring your own drinks, set sail, and have a great time. The groom will feel special for having an entire boat dedicated to him for the day and the party can be as wild as you want—it’s your boat for the day!
Axe throwing
Take advantage of the new trend and plan a bachelor party at your local axe-throwing bar. What’s better than beers and chucking sharp objects? The groomsmen can let their competitive sides shine. The group is guaranteed to have a great time and it will be a night to remember.
High-class night
If the groom isn’t accustomed to living the high life, he may appreciate a night being treated like a king. Rent a limo, head to the most expensive steakhouse in town, and go to a cigar bar or whiskey bar after for a tasting. Just as with every bachelor party, don’t let the groom pay for anything. Remember, it’s his “last night” as one of the single guys.
