So you’re the best man of your best mate, but not sure how to throw the best bucks party, and have a memorable stag weekend you will be talking about for months to come? Organise a party weekend that truly earns you the title of “best man”
Let’s start of with the “Money is no object” bucks night.
For some men, enough is never enough. So if you’ve got a millionaire mate, you’re going to have to sort out something special.
The wheels: Stretch Hummers when you’re on the ground. In the air, it’s first class all the way, or private jet for you super rich blokes.
The schedule: Head straight to the world capital of debauchery, and enjoy a week’s worth of partying, gambling, and womanising in Las Vegas? They even have curly fries at the buffet and complimentary shampoo in your hotel room.
The damage: It’s $10,000 return to Vegas, and about the same for a high-class escort. A report in Pommy rag The Guardian claimed the Pussycat Dolls will do private gigs for a lazy million. I think I’d rather stay in Edinburgh and eat a pizza than have to listen to them sing.
The highlight: Drinking expensive Cristal champagne as it cascades off a stripper’s boobs. And the curly fries of course.
Possible fallout: A cancelled wedding, after one of your mates forgets the golden rule of Vegas and spills the beans to his missus.
This next party idea is pretty nice, and becoming more standard, but it has stood the test of time:
The “Guys and Dolls” bucks night.
They may be spending the rest of their life together, but some “modern” couples are dragging their mates together to share their last night of freedom..
The wheels: Hire a few limos, with different rides for the women and men. It’ll give the ladies a chance to decide which blokes they have dibs on – and give the blokes a chance to discuss boobs.
The schedule: If you’re really desperate to see naked chicks, take a nude-drawing class. Trendy pubs put them on, so you can get pissed while you paint and perv. Throw in dinner, boozy karaoke and some bad dancing and you’ll have a night all can enjoy.
The damage: Any hope of a kebab during a boozy night can be dropped. If the women have their way, you’re dropping at least $70 on a feed before you’ve even had a beer.
The highlight: When you hook up with the bridesmaid, making for an awkward or beaut wedding – depending on how you perform.
Possible fallout Bugger all, which – in a time when Facebook photos can get you into sorts of trouble – this is a plus.
