When it comes to weddings, the groom-to-be is entitled to his own celebration, which is where the traditional bachelor party comes in. These days, bachelor parties have evolved from old-style hitting a bar or \u201cgentleman\u2019s club\u201d to something more sophisticated. However, a great event doesn\u2019t just happen; it takes a little thought and planning. Birkat Elyon<\/a> has decades of experience providing smart couples with dazzling, high-quality cubic zirconia engagement and wedding rings<\/a>. So here are their helpful tips for planning the perfect bachelor party (pass these on to the Best Man, who\u2019s traditionally in charge\u2026).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DECIDE THE \u201cWHERE\u201d AND \u201cWHEN\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make a list of three different destinations (or local options)\nbased on the Bachelor\u2019s interests.  Let\nhim pick his favorite.  Keep in mind that\ninternational destinations may limit how many people can participate; it\u2019s\nprobably best to plan for somewhere that provides access to a lot of available\nactivities, one that\u2019s not cost-prohibitive and isn\u2019t too far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then pick a date, one about six weeks in the future. Keep in\nmind things like holidays or popular vacation weekends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHERE WILL YOU STAY?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two basic options: renting a private home or booking a hotel. A house has the advantages of allowing the guys to hang out together, has access to a grill or a pool and is usually cheaper.\u00a0 A hotel gives guests a chance to \u201cescape\u201d from each other for a bit, is usually in a central location to let you easily hit\u00a0local sites and has quick access to a restaurant and bar. Which set-up will be best for your guest list?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE GUESTLIST<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A good size for a bachelor party\/weekend is around 10 people. More than that and it’s tough to hang out together (especially in a restaurant where table sizes are limited). Also, keep in mind those \u201cawkward\u201d invites \u2013 like a male cousin your bride-to-be doesn\u2019t really like. Instead of adding potential issues to the party, consider a separate one-night event, like a dinner or a trip to a cigar bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MAKE A PLAN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not all of your guests will want to do whatever is on the\nagenda for the weekend, so make sure that most events are \u201copt in.\u201d Another\nhelpful tip to keep the peace? Let guests know approximate costs beforehand. On\na similar note, don\u2019t over-book. There will be plenty of guys who just want to\nrelax and not be forced into this or that activity. So leave plenty of\n\u201cdowntime\u201d for the guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CREATE AN EFFICIENT EMAIL MESSAGE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve picked your place, date and who will be on the\ninvite list, get organized. Send a brief email that breaks down basic details\nof the event and any expected costs (keep in mind that the bachelor himself\ntends to be off the hook for most everything but his airfare). Get everyone to\ndownload PayPal or Venmo so that expenses can be easily handled between you.\nFinally, get all contact info like cell numbers and prospective flight\ninformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planning a great Bachelor Party with these helpful tips from Birkat Elyon will result in lots of fun memories. Of course, another way to honor life\u2019s big moments is with a handsome piece of high-quality CZ jewelry<\/a>.
