Congratulations on being invited to be best man or groomsman by one of your closest friends! You’ll be an extension of the groom as part of the wedding party, and one of your first jobs will be to help arrange the bachelor party.
We’ve got your back when it comes to preparing the ultimate bachelor party with this playbook of bachelor party ideas that you can use to make sure you don’t forget anything and can get started planning the best party you’ve ever thrown.
Bachelor Party Ideas
Bachelor parties have gone a long way since then, and they’ve gotten a lot more innovative as a result. With the increased popularity of these parties, it’s easier to become overwhelmed when it comes to arranging the guys, deciding on a location and time, and ensuring that the groom has a memorable celebration.
It’s difficult enough to plan a golf trip without the extra stress of it being one of your friends’ final hurrah before he marries. It must be flawless.
In this article, we’ll go over everything you need to know about throwing the perfect golf bachelor party that will get you huge brownie points with your buddies.
Party Budget
The cost you have to work with is one of the most crucial things to consider when arranging a golf bachelor party.
You’ll want to be certain that everyone who has been invited will be able to attend. You should spend enough to have a good time, but not so much that any of the members of the group are financially strained.
Ask around before you start scheduling tee times and lodging to see how much each person is willing to spend.
The details of your trip (where to stay, which courses to play, how many days you’ll be gone for, special activities, etc.) will be determined by the average amount individuals are prepared to spend.
Invite Your Man
It’s possible that this will be difficult. You don’t want to forget anyone, but you also don’t want to invite that guy from work who can’t stop talking about himself.
The goal of a bachelor party is to provide the guy with a memorable experience before he marries. That’s why calling him before finalizing the guest list and sending out invites is an excellent idea.
It’s easier to schedule tee times and any activities you’ll play on the course if you invite guests in groups of four (4, 8, or 12) for a golf bachelor party.

When to Have a Bachelor Party?
The bachelor party is usually held between one and four months before the wedding. The “when” will be heavily influenced by the amount of planning required for activities over the weekend or for an all-day event. It’s also crucial to remember to make reservations and check the schedules of everyone who will be attending.
Keep in mind that some groomsmen may still be in college and have a more demanding schedule. Consider when these guys will be able to take time off from their busy schedules to join ahead of time.
You should also avoid booking a vacation on a holiday weekend. This could lead to disputes with other groomsmen’s preparations.
As a general rule, the larger the bachelor party, the more difficult it will be to coordinate everyone’s schedule.
You may have to sacrifice one member for the good of the whole group at some point.
Let’s say the majority of your group agrees that the first weekend in March is the finest time. Anthony, however, is unable to attend that weekend due to a job commitment.
Anthony may have to sit out this weekend if no other weekend works for everyone else.
You should also consider how long you intend to travel. The majority of bachelor parties last one night or a weekend.
Non-Golf Fun Activities
You can’t golf from nightfall until dawn, unfortunately. That’s why having a few suggestions for things to do after the round is always a good idea.
Your options will be determined by your location. Here are some non-golf activities to do at your golf bachelor party:
Poker Night
It’s impossible to top a night out with your pals, a few drinks, and the possibility to win a few money at a poker game.
Whisky Tasting
If you’re a whisky expert, perform a quick google search to discover whether your destination offers any whisky tastings.
Cigars Lounge
Visit a posh cigar bar and select from hundreds of the finest cigars.
Nightclub
Do you enjoy a good time? The dazzling lights and pricey drinks of a nightclub scream bachelor party like nothing else.
Gift Ideas
Having a gift fund for a golf bachelor party is the easiest way to go about purchasing gifts. This is where everyone contributes a few dollars, and the host purchases a gift for the groom and all guests.
Of course, in comparison to the regular guests, I would propose spending a little more on the groom.
It makes sense to acquire anything golf-related for a golf bachelor party. Buying a sleeve of golf balls and a few other comparable products for the attendees is always a good idea.
Obviously, the groom’s gift should be more personalized and require more consideration.
