Your best friend is tying the knot in a few months. As his best man, it’s your job to plan a killer guy’s night out that everyone will remember for the rest of their lives. No pressure, right?
You could go for the basic bar scene, but that’s cliché. You want to do something a little more adventurous. Well, not too adventurous.
You don’t want him to walk down the aisle in a sling or let him do something that he’ll regret later. We’ve got a few ideas that can help you out. Check out this party guide to learn more.
Start New Traditions and Embrace Old Ones
Bachelor parties date back hundreds of years. There are certain traditions in place that almost everyone adheres to. That doesn’t mean you have to stick to a certain formula.
It’s all about bonding and celebrating a rite of passage of sorts. As long as you keep this in mind, you can do whatever you want.
Set the Right Budget
You don’t want to exclude your friend’s best buddy from college because they can’t afford to attend the party. You’ve got to consider everyone’s budget.
If you don’t think everyone is up for a trip to Vegas, bring the casino into your home with a themed night. Order out food and keep the price to a minimum.
Creating the Right Mood
Many people decide to set a certain theme for the last night out party. We’ll go back to the Vegas idea above. You can set up a few tables, grab some poker chips, and deck out the entire place in card-related decor.
Looking for bachelor party decorations isn’t too hard. You can even make some of the stuff yourself using tutorials online.
Enlist in Some Help
Yes, you’re the best man. Does that mean you have to plan the entire boys’ night out by yourself? No.
That can be incredibly stressful. Get a team together to help tackle all the tasks at hand. Otherwise, you may forget something during all the planning stress.
Don’t Let Your Buddy Do Anything Dumb
You want to have the best guys’ night out, but don’t do anything that’s downright stupid. You don’t want your buddy to have to walk down the aisle with a cast on his arm or be late for his wedding because he’s in jail.
You should also prevent him from doing something that he’s going to regret. You don’t want him to get married on a guilty conscience.
Make sure that you arrange some type of transportation as well. Driving after everyone has been drinking is more than irresponsible. It’s dangerous.
Planning the Perfect Guy’s Night Out
As the best man, it’s up to you to plan the best guy’s night out to send your friend off into his married life. You don’t have to do it alone.
Enlist in a little help to set the right mood, talk to everyone to set the budget for the celebration, and work together to make sure he doesn’t do anything stupid. Above all else, have a good time.
