A bachelor party and a bachelorette party are not mandatory pre-wedding events, however, if you have a choice between whether to hold it or not, choose the former! Such a party allows you not only to once again communicate with your best friends and girlfriends, but also gives you the opportunity to relax a little before the wedding, at least for a while forgetting about the many worries that accompany preparation.
Scenario for a bachelor party
, and
a bachelorette party
depends only on your imagination and capabilities. There are currently no strict requirements. The main thing is that the event is memorable for you and your friends. Often, friends and girlfriends take on the entire organization, knowing that the bride and groom already have enough to do.
You shouldn't have a bachelor or bachelorette
on the eve of the wedding. The next day you won’t look your best, but you have a very busy and responsible day ahead of you. The most optimal thing is to organize a farewell to single life 3-5 days before the wedding celebration.
Bachelorette party - options
A hundred years ago, a bachelorette party was a sad event. During it, the bride and her bridesmaids sang sad songs about farewell to girlhood and their parents' home and burst into burning tears. Today, fortunately, such traditions have been forgotten and a bachelorette party is a pleasant evening in the company of best friends, filled with positivity and fun.
The most popular venues for a bachelorette party are a cafe or a club. Alternatively, you can go to a sushi or karaoke bar, bowling alley or even billiards. However, the greatest scope for imagination is provided by a bachelorette party organized at home. You can organize a party with children's games and amusements such as playing forfeits and Twister, arrange an evening photo shoot, cocktail party, or hold a makeup or body painting competition.
Gifts for a bachelor party
At the end of the party, each of the friends presented their gift, which is necessary in family life. The options were:
The first friend brought a diaper and onesies. Because in family life the most important thing is children.
The 2nd friend brought a flashlight and money. So that the family never strays from the right path in life and never needs material wealth.
The third friend brought a baby hat and socks. Because he believes that family life cannot be complete without continuation.
The 4th friend gave me vitamins, dollars and a condom. And he wished that the family would always have health, prosperity and crazy love.
It was interesting to compare the bridesmaids' gifts with the groomsmen's gifts.
What to give for a bachelorette party?
Almost anything is suitable as a gift - close friends usually know the bride well and can even give somewhat intimate things. A gift does not have to be expensive; you can give one from everyone. Bed linen, jewelry, stockings, a nightgown, books about sex life, sets of glasses, a subscription to your favorite publication, a sushi making kit, a subscription to a dance school, handmade soap, a gift certificate for a visit to a beauty salon - there are many options. You can give the bride beautiful underwear - in this situation such a gift is quite acceptable.
Bachelorette and bachelor parties 2-in-1: a new trend and its advantages
While some couples prefer to organize a traditional bachelorette and bachelor party, others support the new trend - a two-in-one party. What are the advantages of such a holiday and is it right for you?
Like any tradition, separate bachelorette and bachelor parties remain popular, but some couples prefer the new format. In the West, it has already been dubbed the words “bachelorette party” and “stag party.” This is a party that the bride and groom hold for all their friends of both genders. And the new format has its significant advantages.
You can invite all your friends at once, not just some.
Many couples have the same social circle and common friends, so it’s not surprising that at a bachelor party they want to see everyone at once. In the case of a bachelorette party, you don’t have to share your friends, but celebrate the end of your single life with everyone at once.
You can choose a more interesting location.
If traditional hen and bachelor parties are usually celebrated in classic locations (spa, bar, etc.), for a 2-in-1 party you can choose a multifunctional location and not be limited to one activity. For example, rent a villa on the seashore or go to a country hotel where all possible entertainment will be available to you. After all, it is very likely that some of your friends will prefer an evening at the bar to a pajama party, and some of your friends, on the contrary, will want to pamper themselves at the spa and swim in the pool.
You will have more party ideas.
When choosing a party theme, base it on your couple's interests and hobbies. Let it be travel, gastronomy, active sports, dancing or music - here you can easily move away from the traditional formats of a beauty day and relaxation in a cigar room.
You can have a competition.
Another advantage of a joint party is that it can be made even more exciting and emotionally rich by arranging competitions between the teams of the bride and groom. Dance battle, short distance swimming, card games or quizzes with spicy tasks and prizes - why not?
Mixed parties are much more romantic.
Unless you're tasked with doing something your fiancé wouldn't allow you to do (or your fiancé having fun in a way you wouldn't approve of), a general party with friends will definitely bring more positive emotions to you and them. Your girlfriends and friends will undoubtedly want to look their best, the atmosphere of love and romance will reign at the holiday, the evening will definitely end with dancing and, perhaps, this day will become the birthday of a new couple (and maybe more than one).
If you still want to retire with your friends, and your fiancé with his friends, no one is stopping you from thinking through the program so that it includes entertainment only for girls and only for young men. For example, while the men compete in target shooting or learn the basics of yachting, you and your friends can try on dresses, beautiful underwear, go for a manicure and pedicure, or organize a rehearsal of wedding makeup and hairstyles. How do you like this idea?

Bachelor party - how to spend it?
Unlike a bachelorette party, a bachelor party has never been a special ritual and it was carried out, as they say, according to whoever wants it. Today, many men's groups go to the bathhouse or sauna. There are frequent outings into nature, where, over barbecue, the groom is given farewells before an important step. Among men's favorite places one can also note restaurants, pubs, billiard rooms, and bowling clubs. Or you can go play paintball
– a dose of adrenaline and good mood is guaranteed!
Sometimes you can meet the desire of the groom, but more often his friends, to spend a bachelor party with a “spice” - a lot of booze is bought, strippers are invited, hot girls are called. If you are considering this option, first think about whether such a party will cost you too much - there have been cases when, after such entertainment, brides canceled their weddings.
Bachelor and bachelorette parties - history and modernity
The tradition of organizing a bachelor party on the eve of a wedding celebration has a long and interesting history. Those who believe that the tradition of holding bachelor or hen parties came to us from the West are deeply mistaken. For example, hen parties have been held in Rus' since about the 6th century AD. A bachelorette party in those days was the same for everyone.
The girls gathered at the bride's house to dance in circles, sew wedding gifts for guests, and sing and dance. The most important task of such a celebration was the bride’s awareness and acceptance of the end of her girlhood and preparation for her future family life. Just like today in those days, the bride's closest friends and relatives gathered for the bachelorette party - no male acquaintances. The bachelorette party was held for several days, and the bride cried for several days, uncontrollably and sincerely mourning her independence and youth. If things were going badly for the bride, and her friends were also unable to help, a professional mourner was invited to do this. The girls sang sad songs, said goodbye to their friend and gave the bride small paired gifts as a souvenir, symbolizing the newlyweds...
The bachelor party was previously called “youngster”. This word comes from the word “well done.” On the day of the “young man”, friends, relatives, and comrades gathered at the groom’s house. These were mostly get-togethers; there was no specific holiday scenario. But today everything is more fun...
Today you can rent a limousine: pink, white, black - jump in with your friends and rush towards the night and fun adventures. You don’t have to get out of the limousine, you can even arrange a disco in the salon until the morning with a sea of champagne and martinis. Or you can go to the sauna to steam and dive into the cold, simply icy water of the pool. And it’s even more unusual to hold a bachelorette party in a SPA salon, where you can have a pleasant and useful time and have a lot of fun. If you are having a bachelorette party in the form of a closed party, then why not carefully invite dancers, the main thing is to first discuss this with your chosen one...
Another obligatory tradition is a bachelor party. It is absolutely not necessary that the groom should not get drunk. To make a row or do anything like that, no! A bachelor party is simply a moment when his friends gather and support him in his desire to get married, and also help him survive the moment of parting with independence, which, at least deep in his soul, is appreciated by every man.
There are a lot of options for holding a bachelor party: a trip to the bathhouse, an outing into nature, or better yet, fishing with an overnight stay, or maybe hunting, going to a strip club, or, finally, a home party! Choose and fantasize! Although traditionally one of the groom’s close friends is responsible for the bachelor party.
However, there are certain “NOTs” that both the bride when organizing a bachelorette party and the groom at a bachelor party must adhere to:
• Don't have a bachelor/bachelorette party the night before your wedding. Even if you decide to limit yourself in the amount of alcohol consumed, the fun can drag on for a long time and you can’t look tired at your own wedding! • Don't invite each other's relatives to your party. You and your friends speak the “same language,” but the relatives of your chosen one may misinterpret or understand something. And believe me, a bachelor and bachelorette party in itself is a very compromising event for those. who is looking for some tricks. • Do not forget that strippers only dance with strippers, so you should not create scandals and quarrel in vain if one of you wants to invite him/her. • Do not spend your bachelor/bachelorette party in a place with a large number of strangers; ideally, this is exclusively your limited circle of people. If you want a disco, go to a closed club. You can generally rent a small club for the whole evening, night.
Trust each other, be tolerant and let no bachelor or bachelorette parties let you doubt the most beautiful feelings on earth!
Yours!
