Dress code - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

dualman7 · 08-20-2005, 12:55 PM

My cousin is getting married next month, and tonight is his bachelor party. The plan is to go to a bar, and then a strip club. I have never been to a bachelor party before, and not really sure what to wear. I'd love to be comfortable, but I will dress up its normal for these settings. So what do you say, Jeans and a t-shirt okay?

depends on where it is... I'd call the place you are going to to find out what the dress code is... or ask someone else who's going.

Some places (more upscale gentlemen's clubs) jeans and tshirts are not acceptable attire - but other's as long as you are wearing clothes... that's all that matters.

Yeah, I'd say you'll most likely be ok with Jeans and a T-shirt for most places, unless (as Maleficent said) it's some kind of upscale club. More than likely it'll be just the average kind though, so I'd say you'll be good with what you're thinking. Hope you have some money ready!

any advice for a first time strip club goer? I am taking about 200 bucks with me. Maybe I'll get myself a lap dance, and one for the groom.

Follow the groom's dress. We used to go up a notch for these things but you don't want to look like perfect paul if he's sporting jeans & tshirt.

$200 should be plenty. The best man should call ahead, maybe check performers & rates & bachelor party shows. Go in as a group for the main stuff.

Or so I've heard.

Let them know the guy's getting married. In a lot of places, they'll put him up on the stage and have all of the strippers dance around/on him.

At least that's what they tell me.

Depends on the club. I've been in clubs that allowed some pretty crappy dressers in, and others that wouldn't let respectible looking guys with jeans in. Safe bet is to call ahead (definitely advise of the groom-to-be and see if they can do anything special for him).

I remember one night I was working security at a grocery store. A group from a bachelor's party had come by, after hitting the bar pretty hard, and they made the groom-to-be go in a buy all sorts of weird combinations. One time they sent him in to by sausage and vasaline. Then they would send him in for something else equally funny. They made sure that the only items he bought looked really weird together. I think a couple of guys in the party pissed their pants watching the guy stagger through the store buying the items.
