The bachelor party

Posted: Monday, Mar. 30, 2009

When it comes to the bachelor’s last hoorah, the stereotypical “drink-’til-you-drop” nights are the stuff of old movies. But that doesn’t mean you and your buddies can’t have a great time celebrating your good fortune.

The best man is traditionally responsible for arranging the bachelor party, but you can be ready with some suggestions:

• A golf outing

• Dinner and smokes at a fine cigar bar

• A camping or fishing trip

• A poker night

• An evening of bowling or billiards

• A tailgate party at a ball game

The bachelor party is usually held sometime during the week prior to the wedding, but never, ever, the night before the ceremony. You’ll want to be in peak form, and there’s nothing better than good rest to help you look and feel your best.
