My first bachelor party: what to expect? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Jesus Pimp · 08-29-2003, 05:52 AM

I'm going to my first bachelor party in a few weeks. I've never been to one before. What should I expect?

absorbentishe · 08-29-2003, 06:04 AM

A night of all out debauchery! It probably won't be what you expect, more than a night full of drinking, looking at neeked ladies. People tend to not do as much as they say they are. Make your friend carry around an inflatable doll (Not the pleasuring yourself type) and you can have a lot of fun with it.

It depends on who's throwing it. Some bachelor parties (like Rat's) are just guys playing poker and drinking beer - others stop just short (or don't) of orgies. Ask the best man, or whoever's throwing it, where you're going and what you'll be doing. And on behalf of brides everywhere, please do your best to keep the groom from making a complete ass of himself. Or at least make sure anything that happens at the party NEVER gets back to the bride. And make sure he drinks lots of water after he's done drinking everything else. I've seen videos of guys too hungover to stand up at the altar - not pretty.

I thought the days of having bachelor parties the night before the wedding were over? (Well, if they're not, they SHOULD be. What a dumb idea.)

Lurkette has it right - just ask if you're curious as to what's going to happen. If they're done properly, they should be somewhat representative of the groom's lifestyle - i.e. if he's not a drinker and doesn't like naked women, you're probably not going to be going to a strip club. Go with the flow and make sure somebody gets the groom home safe. Oh, and be sure to post back and let us know how it was!

Yup,

It's just another type of party, so what happens depends on who's throwing it.

I've been to 2 in my life, both rather silly.

The first was in my friend's family room (think split tri-level). They got this girl stripper (she was early 20's) and she danced to this hokey music while her boyfriend stayed upstairs with the parents of my friend.

Kinda hard to get worked up in that situation, if you know what I mean.

The second wasn't much better.

It was at a rather upscale strip club down town (Denver residents will no doubt know what club I'm talking about) and we had a rather expensive (and good) steak dinner while the strippers tried to bleed our wallets.

Just remember -- It is your job to help the groom make a total ass out of himself. Get him sloppy drunk and have five strippers give him a dance at once. At the end of the night he shoudn't remember his wife-to-be's name.

Just kind of ageeing with what's already been posted - it depends on who's throwing it...

I've been to all kinds - from innocent poker games to all-out sexfests with dancers/prostitutes where anything goes. It's kind of surreal to be dipping chips at the salsa bowl watching the groom-to-be and best man DP'ing a stripper on the couch.

In the second situation - they were divorced within a month, because the whole party was videotaped, and the tape was given to the groom as a wedding present - <i>and the fool kept it</i>! Only took his wife a couple weeks to find it.

Cynthetiq · 08-30-2003, 02:07 PM

mine was just drinking with some friends... there was supposed to be plenty of strippers... but life happened and it just wasn't possible as I had a job interview that evening suddenly.

I have been to debaucherous ones, and tame ones. The tamest was my best friends. We called in for Thai food, played playstation on a 56" screen (it was brand new then... Metal Gear Solid was still a playable demo) and we watched The Thing.

One thing to note about bachelor parties: what happens at a bachelor party, stays at the bachelor party. I don't care what he did, how funny or bad it was, nobody who wasn't at the party ever finds out about it.

Sorry, that just struck me funny.

Oooh yeah.

Just have fun and don't disgrace the guy too much.

Feel free to let him fall asleep and place objects on his head though.

We want the pics too.

dtheriault · 08-31-2003, 09:17 PM

1. don't tell you wife or girlfriend about what happened... don't tell anyone unless it was tame.

2. make sure no one is taking pictures or video. i've seen that turn out just bad bad bad. if someone is taking pictures or video pull a sean penn and rip out the film and smash into pieces and say real loud.

3. no one talks about fight club!
