The main task of any bachelor party is to arrange a fun and memorable evening farewell to single life before the wedding. After all, when else will the groom, who is about to become a husband, fool around with his friends like the good old days?
And so that the company doesn’t get bored, you need to think through the scenario in advance and include fun and even spicy competitions for the groom’s bachelor party. get together with friends in a bathhouse, a club, outdoors, in a sauna, in a country house or even at home. Actually, the venue does not matter if you create a relaxed atmosphere, diluted with funny entertainment.
Friendly relay race
In this competition, the male bachelor party group is divided into two equal teams. At a certain distance you need to place two small tables (or stools). Place a bottle of strong alcohol (determine the volume yourself), a glass and a snack on each one. The competitions are as follows:
- The first team member runs up to the table, pours alcohol into a glass and runs away.
- The second one runs up and drinks it.
- The third takes the baton and runs to have a snack.
- The fourth participant performs all previous operations at once.
The game continues in this order until the entire bottle is drunk by one of the teams. Accordingly, she will be considered the winner at the bachelor party.
Part two. Information component of the bachelor party
Of course, there should be no secrets between future spouses, but not today. The bride has absolutely no need to know where, when and with whom you will spend your last single day. You, of course, can discuss your bachelor party scenario with her, but the bride is unlikely to appreciate it.
This also applies to relatives from the bride’s side, even if her brother or godfather is very cheerful and mischievous, it is better to forget to invite him to your night show. The most trusted and loyal friends are present at the bachelor party.
Another condition for a cool bachelor party: there should be no photo or video cameras, so as not to compromise the imagination of women’s minds. Even if someone wants to show everyone on social networks how much fun they had at a friend’s party, it is better to discuss this in advance and make everyone agree to confidentiality.
Cash reward
Everyone gathered needs to chip in a certain amount of money. The total quantity must contain different bills. Each participant in the competition, blindfolded, takes turns pulling one bill and, without seeing it, tries to guess the denomination. If he guesses right, he takes it for himself. If not, put it back. This should continue for several rounds. The money remaining after the end of the game is divided among all participants of the bachelor party or given to the one who guessed correctly and received the largest number of bills during the competition.
Why arrange it and who is responsible
There are several reasons why organizing a men's holiday is mandatory.
The main thing is to relax before the upcoming wedding, relax in the pleasant company of trusted friends, and relieve stress. That is why organizing a bachelor party for the groom has recently become more relevant. But there are other reasons:
- The hero of the occasion himself wants to go into the lead. They remember that the future husband has medical contraindications to drinking, religious beliefs, and personal preferences.
- The desire to create a holiday for a group of friends. Going to a paintball site, fishing for big fish, or sporting competitions is an excellent reason to make one more holiday in life. The ideas of the organization depend on the interests of those invited.
- If the newlyweds are planning a modest painting or a family dinner instead of a wedding, then the bachelor party must take place! This transition into family life will definitely be unforgettable.
But organizing an event may have other prerequisites: from a simple “I want” to more exotic ones. This is an opportunity to make peace with friends, repay a debt to the groom, or collect dirt on your future husband.
The organization of such a popular celebration has long been undertaken by a friend, or a witness. Today it could be the groom himself, his father or even his father-in-law. Sometimes ideas on how to spend a bachelor party are suggested by the bride.

Games with a glass, but not alcoholic
The competition requires two or four participants. They need to be seated at the table opposite each other. Place an empty glass (not made of thick glass) upside down in the middle of the table. It should be located between the two intended boundaries. The presenter gives a signal, after which the men begin to blow on the glass with all their might so that it eventually crosses the opponent’s line. To make the “wind” stronger, you can team up in pairs.
The winner is the one who is the first to move the glass over the border line. And to make the bachelor party even more fun, suggest playing blindfolded. But replace the glasses with containers with flour. Funny faces and laughter from those present are guaranteed.
Bachelor party traditions in different countries
Ideas for a bachelor party: traditions from the past
It’s quite difficult to decide on an idea for a bachelor party. If you still haven’t figured out how to throw a fun party for a friend, you can find out the traditions of celebrating a cool bachelor party in different countries :
- The ancient Romans enjoyed diluted wine and fought with wooden swords, with the groom being the winner in any outcome. Hetaeras were invited to accompany the holiday.
- In Turkey, participants still compete in military skills. Most often, men organize horse races and throw wooden darts.
- But in Ancient Rus', a bachelor party had a completely different meaning. Members of the squads usually lived in the same house with their comrades, but after marriage, each went to his own home. The evening before the wedding was considered a farewell to friends. Later, men began to visit the bathhouse, but did so completely alone. Fortunately, the grooms' friends realized in time the injustice of what was happening and began going to the sauna with the future newlyweds.
- In China, bachelor parties are taken with great seriousness. On this day, the groom very painfully plucks all the hair on his face and gets a special haircut. At the end of the holiday, the man receives a hat as a gift and treats the guests to millet porridge and meat.
- In Germany, there is no clear division between bachelor and bachelorette parties; farewell to bachelorhood is celebrated by all participants in the upcoming ceremony. A special feature of the party is breaking dishes “for good luck.”
Some traditions are scary, but even from ancient peoples you can borrow interesting options for a bachelor party. The organizers of the holiday just need to use their imagination, stock up on fun competitions and order an unusual cake.
In the video you can borrow interesting ideas for organizing a bachelor party and the distribution of roles at the party:
Pissing boy
It is better to hold this competition when the bachelor party company is already somewhat depressed, but is still on its feet. Select 3-4 people, give them equipment: each a large glass (or beer glass) and a bottle of beer. Players must hold the beer firmly between their legs, holding it at an angle with the neck facing up. The glass is placed in front of the participant, and the hands are removed behind the back. The essence of the competition is this: you need to pour beer into a standing container the fastest. The winner is congratulated and offered to drink the contents of the glass.
How to have fun
One of the mandatory competitions is a test of readiness for family life, proper handling of the child: swaddling a doll, feeding, changing diapers, etc.
These are the most harmless entertainments, but very funny, which look especially cool from the outside.
Of course, the games can be more adult:
- checkers, where instead of checkers there are glasses of vodka;
- a bowl of vodka, where you need to drink a glass 100 times and hold out, etc.
And this does not mean that the bachelor party should have all such entertainment. There is a place for harmless competitions, which also perfectly lift the mood, and you don’t need to be in a certain state of alcohol for this.
And the guys must, in an awkward position, collect them all, each in their own box.
Military formation
This bachelor party game is team-based. Here you need to come up with cool tasks so that the participants, when completing them, each time line up from largest to smallest (or vice versa). For example: by height, by the number of letters in the first or last name, by foot size, weight, floor on which you live, etc. The host’s imagination is not limited, you can even compete on vulgar topics. After each such task, the team that completes it faster wins.
And finally, you need to check whether the groom is ready to become a husband. This competition at the bachelor party will show his masculine endurance and nervous system, which is very important in family life. To do this, friends need to prepare a sheet of paper with dots drawn on it in random order.
The groom must, standing in front of the mirror and looking into it (and who said it would be easy?), circle all the dots in turn. Friends record the words spoken by the young man during the competition. After this, everyone sits down, and the presenter announces that the phrases that the future husband will say on his first wedding night will now be read out.
Examples of these games can be taken as a basis for the evening, but it is advisable for the groom to come up with the most original bachelor party competitions on his own. Take into account the characteristics of those present in the company, the hero of the occasion, connect tasks with memories from past years. And it certainly needs to be fun and cheerful, and perhaps so that in the morning the company will not remember even half of the past evening.
Bachelor party competitions
The responsibilities of the bachelor party organizers include purchasing food and drinks and decorating the premises. And also inventing a variety of jokes so that the groom’s friends and groom don’t get bored. The bachelor party will be remembered for a long time if you organize many witty competitions.
Preparing competitions for a bachelor party is not that difficult. The main thing is that they are cheerful and funny. An example would be similar entertainment from a kindergarten or school. Here are, for example, a few competitions that you can take as a basis. Of course, to organize these competitions and come up with new ones, you must also use your creative thinking.
Portrait of the bride It is advisable to start this comic event with the groom.
In this competition, the groom, blindfolded, must draw a portrait of his beloved on a piece of paper. It is advisable that he sees his “creation” at the wedding, where the framed portrait will be presented to his wife. Ask, I answer
The groom is given a list of questions on a piece of paper to which he must give written answers. But on a different sheet. Questions and answers are announced to friends at the bachelor party, as well as to guests and the bride at the wedding. The funny thing is that the questions are later replaced by others. For example:
Question. What do you love most about borscht? Replacement. What does your beloved's nose remind you of? Answer. Beetroot.
Question. What's your favorite drink? Substitution. Do you love your fiancée like...Answer. Cold beer.
Kiss me This fun, original competition can be organized if the bachelor party is taking place in the hall of a restaurant or bar, where there are other visitors, or rather female visitors. Several of the groom's friends, participants in the competition, disperse around the hall in search of kisses. Their number should be recorded on the face with lip prints in lipstick. The one who “brings” the most kisses wins.
We came from a monkey A simple but fun relay competition. The guests are divided into two teams. Two ropes are laid across the hall, at the end of the “route” a stool or chair is placed, and the rope wraps around it and returns back. The task is to walk only on the rope, and also hold on to it with your hands. Having completed the route with a monkey gait, the participant passes the baton to the next one. The team whose players become the fastest monkeys wins.
Groom competition Another team game.
The purpose of the competition is to draw a horse. Two sheets of whatman paper are attached to the wall or board. The competition participants are divided into two teams. Players take turns going to the sheet and drawing some detail of the horse. You should approach one by one, observing the relay. The team with the most realistic and original drawing will win. Toast opener The competition invites you to open a bottle of beer using... a toast.
There can be as many participants in the competition as you like. The winner and happy owner of an open bottle of beer will be the one who proclaims the most original beer toast. For example: Brothers, let's drink a glass of beer to our cheerful girlfriend!
In the beer there is a hop taste, and in the foam... a wonderful taste of hepabene!
Of course, toasts can also be in prose.
Wobblers The competition is similar to the previous one, only there are only two participants. The prize (1 liter of beer) is awarded to the one who cleans the dried roach the fastest. As a result, however, the winner will have to share with the loser, but it’s not for nothing that he still cleaned his roach. Friendship wins!
Of course, you can’t list all the competitions. Be smart and creative, add a twist of fun originality, and may your bachelor party be a success!
We wish you a happy bachelor party!

A practical gift for the groom
Modern gadget
If you want to remind your friend that now he will not live alone, but with the woman he loves, give the future newlywed a huge umbrella for leisurely walks with his wife or double headphones for listening to his favorite music together. An equally original gift is a bottle of expensive wine given to the groom, with a humorous recommendation instructing him to drink it during his honeymoon or on the first wedding anniversary.
Contrary to popular belief, it is not at all necessary to somehow connect the gift with the upcoming marriage. It is also a perfect gift that will be useful to a friend in his everyday life. The groom will certainly be pleased:
- an accessory for his car or computer, which you accompany with a verbal wish not to forget your hobbies;
- when giving professional headphones to a friend, you can note that you can’t hear your wife’s comments;
- a modern tablet, smartphone or any other modern gadget will become a reminder to always be in touch with friends.
Party options and locations: let your imagination run wild
Bachelor party in sports style
• Sports complex
If the company loves new experiences and active recreation, the party can be organized on the territory of the sports complex. Such entertainment will bring a lot of positive emotions, and at the same time it will be a great vacation for real men. As a rule, the complex provides the opportunity to swim in the pool, play football, basketball, bowling, and other sports. In such large sports establishments there is a large selection of games to suit all tastes. After a friendly match, you can relax your body and soul in the sauna. In addition, there is always a bar where you can sit and chat during the game or after it. The advantage of this bachelor party option is also that you don’t have to worry about the weather and time of year.
• Paintball
For young people who prefer tougher competitions, a great option is going to a paintball club. Also, a “make-believe” war, safe but exciting, can be laser tag, the essence of which is similar to paintball, but instead of hitting opponents with paint balls, laser beams are used. After running, shooting, feeling like super heroes, you can continue the holiday with more relaxing entertainment.
• For extreme sports enthusiasts
If there is a parachute club in your city, on this day it is quite possible to fulfill your old dream - to jump with a parachute. In this case, it is important to take into account the wishes of all invitees: some friends will want to join the groom, others will refuse the jump for health reasons, others will just want to watch from the sidelines and film the jump on a video camera. Extreme entertainment also includes motorbike riding, quad biking, and go-karting. After these entertainments, everyone can go together to continue the party, for example, to a bar or club.
• Bicycle and horse riding
For those who like to walk in the fresh air, cycling or horseback riding are suitable. If bicycle competitions are not so difficult to organize, then horseback riding can only be done if there is an equestrian club in your city that offers such a service. These bachelor party options are well suited for the warm season, especially since you can periodically relax and snack on something tasty, like on a picnic. It is important to note that alcohol should not be present during horseback riding, since a wayward horse may not like the smell of it.
Visiting the bathhouse and sauna: an opportunity to relax and have a heart-to-heart talk
Bathhouses or saunas are considered popular venues for bachelor parties, because often they are not just a steam room, but a complex that includes a swimming pool, billiards, bar, karaoke, and other entertainment. In addition, you can organize a party here at any time of the year. The standard steam room program can be supplemented with a men's spa, which will not only allow you to relax and enjoy the procedures, but also get a well-groomed appearance, which will not hurt any man.
Going to a club, bar, restaurant - all the conditions for fun
It is not surprising that a nightclub is often chosen for a bachelor party. After all, in such establishments all conditions have been created for maximum pleasure. At any time of the year, here you can enjoy delicious drinks, dance, lose excess energy while playing billiards and bowling, see a colorful show, striptease, etc. Quite often, going to a club is a continuation of more relaxed options for a bachelor party, for example, home gatherings.
If you are planning to go out to a bar, restaurant or nightclub, you should reserve a table in advance and get acquainted with the entertainment program. You can give preference to a karaoke bar, a sports bar, or bars that organize certain kinds of parties with show programs, competitions, and entertainment.
The restaurant option is also considered quite common. However, in this case it is worth considering that it is better to give preference to original, unusual establishments, different from the one in which the wedding celebration will take place.
A trip to the countryside: taking into account weather conditions
A bachelor party organized in nature will allow you to take a break from the bustle of the city and wedding preparations, breathe fresh air and enjoy barbecue, fishing and hunting. There can be many options for a bachelor party outside the city, the main thing when choosing them is to take into account the peculiarities of the season and weather conditions.
• During the cold season
In winter, it is better to go to ski resorts, which provide warm accommodation and various entertainment appropriate for the season. Also, during the cold season, you can go to the dacha, where you can organize competitions with prizes on the street, build a fortress, have snowball fights, go ice skating and skiing. After that, go to a warm house to warm up with mulled wine, have a snack and chat in a cozy atmosphere.
• During the warm season
By organizing a trip to a pond with tents, you can swim to your heart’s content, sunbathe, barbecue, cook fish soup, and sing songs around the fire with a guitar. Fans of fishing or hunting will be able to enjoy doing what they love. Camping in tents will require preparation, so if you want to get rid of unnecessary hassle, you can choose a recreation center that has a barbecue, drinking water, and places for cooking and comfortable overnight accommodation. You can choose a base that provides the opportunity to play billiards, golf, go boating, and select other interesting entertainment.
A fun bachelor party at home
A cozy home environment may be suitable for a bachelor party. Only in this case, you need to take into account that the neighbors may not like a noisy late celebration. Therefore, you can try to finish the too-fun holiday before 23:00, then move to a nightclub, or think about how to celebrate farewell to single life so as not to disturb your neighbors. The cultural program should be such that your friends will remember the evening not for the amount of drink, but in terms of fun and entertainment.
• Evening of games and memories
You can spend an evening of games: come up with fun competitions, hold comic lotteries, play Twister, board games Monopoly and Mafia, compete in playing cards, computer games. After the games, you can chat, discuss important moments of the upcoming wedding, watch photos and films. It would be good if one of the groom’s friends prepared in advance a presentation of photos that would beautifully reflect the most interesting moments of his life. Beer, dried fish, chips, nuts, pizza will be a great addition to a men's evening.
• Unconventional ideas are the highlight of the evening
A non-standard solution for a home party would be to hold a master class, for example, on making cocktails, pizza, sushi, etc. This will not only be fun entertainment for real men, but also an opportunity to surprise your bride with your culinary skills.
A costume and themed party can be very fun: in Latin rhythms, a cowboy party, a super-men's evening, an alien gathering, a beer party, etc. The attributes of such a holiday will be costumes, as well as appropriate decoration, decorations, music, cocktails, and competitions. Incredible fun will be caused by the proposal in this form to go for a walk along the street or visit a bar or club.
