If something goes wrong and the groom doesn\u2019t make the wedding, it&#8217;s on you. Have fun, pick a few comically embarrassing things to do if that\u2019s your thing, but don\u2019t make the poor guy bungee jump off London Bridge in a mankini. Play nicely.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Budget, budget, budget<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Unless you\u2019re planning on being the <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"none\">best <\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"none\">best man ever and funding the whole thing, you\u2019re going to need a budget.\u00a0 So set one that everyone agrees to\u2014and stick to it. It will be a lot easier to come to a number if you have an idea already priced out. Be reasonable with your ideas but get creative. Make sure that you include the groom\u2019s cost in the budget.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Parents and soon-to-be in-laws often contribute to the cause so don\u2019t be afraid to approach them.

All the guys <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">invited to the wedding<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\"> are potential guests, but some family and older men might choose to opt-out. There might be a few friends that can\u2019t make the wedding but would be good candidates for the party. Once you\u2019ve got a list and phone numbers, the easiest way to plan, update and collate is to create a group chat on whatever phone app works for you. Make sure the groom approves the guest-list before you send out any invites.\u00a0 And don\u2019t add him to the group! It will ruin all the surprises.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>When do you throw a stag party?<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0The best time to throw a stag party is 1-2 months before the wedding. The old clich\u00e9 of the night before is just not smart planning and you\u2019re a smart guy so do better. One of the biggest challenges you\u2019ll probably run into at this point is finding a date that works. Sure, you cannot make it work for every single person but do your best to accommodate as many people as possible. Ultimately, it\u2019s on each guest to make the time to attend.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">One thing to keep in mind is that if it\u2019s summer and you\u2019re planning a stag party, you\u2019re not the only one. Plan far enough in advance to ensure you get the venue, location, or experience that you want. It is always fun to keep things a secret but don\u2019t sacrifice planning and organisation for the sake of it. Plan ahead, have a backup plan if you can\u2019t get your first option, and keep all guests informed of any changes.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Send invites<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4145 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"A guy texting on his phone\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-1536x768.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-1480x740.jpg 1480w, https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio-760x380.jpg 760w, https:\/\/www.themixer.com\/en-uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/381.-Bachelor-Party-Planning_Phone-Guy_Canva_Gpoint-Studio.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 100vw, 532px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Even if you have zero design skills, it\u2019s still easy to put together a simple invitation. There are tons of free design tools on the web these days so there\u2019s no excuse. The invite adds gravity to the occasion and, if written correctly, will serve as an information hub for guests. In a perfect world, you want to send out the invites as early as possible. This gives guests every chance to make the date workable so they can attend. Don\u2019t leave it to the last minute. Now read that last bit again. Then again. Okay, good.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>To theme or not to theme?<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">This is entirely up to you.

This saves you from eating out every meal and it means you can turn mealtimes into communal events. Everyone loves a barbecue so fire up the gas grill and throw a build-your-own burger evening. Another awesome thing you can do is host a food and cocktail pairing.
