Fiance's Bachelor Party! Pic Heavy!

MrsD, on May 29, 2019 at 1:02 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 16

As I was looking through WW forums, I realized there are several discussions about questions regarding bachelor parties, but no posts on what was actually done with pictures!

His best man did a great job, but is one of my closest friends so he defaulted to me for a lot of help/decision making. I totally didn't mind at all, and neither did my fiance! I know some bride's want to be involved with planning to make it more fun. For me, it really worked out & I was able to help! I found them the house rental in Pacific Beach, booked my fiance's flights using my Southwest points, ordered koozies for favors for everyone, had groceries delivered to their house, helped with the custom snapchat filter, bought my groom a festive shirt, and paid for the first round of airplane bloody marys!

They ended up going to Pacific Beach for a weekend (Friday morning - Sunday evening). He flew out of Denver into San Diego with 4 of the guys (another 5 flew in on separate flights). In total, he had 14 guys attend not including him! He had an amazing time, and I'm so happy they put together such a nice weekend for him. I was worried because the group plans at the very last minute (like most men), but they did a great job and several made it even if they booked their flight the night before! He saw quite a few friends he hadn't seen for 5+ years since he got out of the military.

10 including my fiance went deep sea fishing for yellowtail tuna & bonito. They were very successful & grilled it up for dinner that night, then froze the rest & took it back on the plane! They loved the electric scooters & road those EVERYWHERE (I got lots of dangerous snapchats throughout the weekend LOL), they went bar hopping both nights & hung out at the beach where they played volleyball during the day.

Overall, he had an amazing time & they all drank like they were 21 again haha! It was very festive & I was so happy he was celebrated. He never has birthday parties, etc. for him and is always celebrating everyone else. His best man was a ball of nerves leading up to it, wanting it to be perfect. And it was! Out of his 10 groomsmen, 8 were able to attend, including my younger brother. Then another 6 of his closest friends joined them! They really enjoyed the entire weekend getting to know each other & the wedding will only be better now because of it.

My fiance was hesitant on asking people to fly to San Diego (or drive for a few), stay in a rental house for two nights, go deep sea fishing, etc. He thought it was a lot financially but all the guys stepped up (minus two groomsmen) and had an amazing time!

What did your groom do on his bachelor party? Post pics!

    He loved it! I paid for it on Etsy, for $10, and it was like $30 to have it around the house for the whole weekend. I thought it was just an extra festive touch since bachelor parties don't do the whole decorate the house & balloons & matching shirts like bachelorette parties do haha!

    That's so true. My FH is doing his Bachelor's in Vegas so I was going to call the hotel and see if they can have balloons waiting or fun food delivered. His groomsmen are great at planning but I wanted to have a surprise for him.

    They're staying local. We live in CT and grew up right on the water in a coastal town.

    So fun! I grew up in San Diego & my fiance was stationed there while he was in the USMC. So it was a great destination for them since Colorado doesn't have a lot of deep sea fishing Smiley winking !

    This is awesome! None of the GM are planners and I'm best friends with the best man too so I've been wanting to suggest things and help out but didn't want to seem overbearing. I really think they should go skydiving and possibly deep sea fishing.

    My FH is very nervous/too shy I think to ask his GM and friends to come somewhere for a weekend and hang out. He literally told his BM to just take him to a restaurant. I'm glad you felt good kind of jumping in a helping without having to plan the whole weekend out.
