Unique Bachelor Party Ideas

If you’re tasked with coming up with the perfect bachelor party idea, you may be a little overwhelmed with the process, especially if you’re not interested in getting wasted and taking body shots off of strippers. Luckily, this list has compiled ten bachelor party ideas that don’t include stuffing one-dollar bills in some woman’s g-string.

10 Unique Bachelor Party Ideas (that are stripper-free)

1.     Camping. Who doesn’t like camping? Camping is a chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy nature. Beers, a crackling campfire, and a clear sky is the perfect way to prepare for the upcoming wedding.

2.    Private whiskey-tasting. If you’re looking for something a little more upscale for the groom, then schedule a private whiskey tasting. This option is a lot better than bar hopping all night like a collection of college students.

3.    Live or virtual gaming. Do you and your friends love a good round of Halo or picking up the paintball gun? Or do you miss the glory days of playing with nerf guns in the backyard? No matter what your gaming style, you can make it a feature of the bachelor party for a night of stress-relieving fun.

4.    Fishing. If you can’t get away long enough for a whole weekend of camping, plan a morning fishing trip instead. Whether you prefer catch-and-release fishing or you plan to cook whatever is caught for dinner, this can be the perfect bonding experience for the future groom and his friends.

5.    Golf. This is only a good option if the groom likes the sport or has at least expressed interest in learning it. If the groom likes to golf, then set up a day at the holes. If you plan to golf during the day, then you can easily pair this idea with a private whiskey-tasting or fancy steak dinner.

6.    Mountain climbing or hiking. Perfect for a spring or fall bachelor party, taking a hiking trip during the day and then kicking back around a firepit with a couple of beers is the perfect way to spend a night surrounded by friends and family.

7.    Poker (with real money). Looking for a cheap and low key bachelor party idea? This one only requires a deck of cards and a few cases of beer. Let the buy-in be $10-$100 and have fun. 

8.    Random road trip. Is the groom the type of friend with a thirst for spontaneity and adventure? If so, rent a vehicle, wrangle up some friends and start on a trip to nowhere. Enjoy the sites and eateries along the way!

9.    Steakhouse dinner. How often do you go to a nice dinner with your friends? Throw budget out the window and take the groom to the best steakhouse in the city, enjoy premier steaks and top-quality alcohol while bonding with the other groomsmen.

10. Vegas, of course. Even if you’re not much for gambling or ogling strippers, Vegas has plenty of things to get into, from museums, architecture, food, and shopping. If you are interested in having a little naughty fun, of course, Vegas can help you with that, too.

The wedding will be one of the best days of the groom’s life, so make the bachelor party one of the best nights of his life, too, with a party tailored to exactly what he will enjoy. Don’t be afraid to skip the drinking and the strippers for a more unique event.
