Camping is one alternative to
the traditional bachelor party. You may choose to either rough it by backpacking
to a location with only the gear on your back to help you survive the elements
for a few days or you could choose to drive to a spa facility that offers well
appointed cabins and five star gourmet meals. Whichever option you choose, you
are bound to have a great deal of time relaxing and enjoying the company of the
rest of the participants in your bachelor party. A camping trip offers the groom
a quiet atmosphere to reflect with his friends on the journey he is about to
take.
Sporting events are another
great alternative to the usual bachelor party ideas. You may find that married
life does not offer you as much free time to spend with your friends as you used
to have so take this chance to enjoy a little bit of fun with your friends.
Whether you choose to partake in a sport of your choice or purchase tickets to
see your favorite professional athletes it is sure to be a great opportunity to
bond with your male friends in the last few days before your wedding.
It is wise to try choosing a
sport that all of your guests will be able to participate in especially if you
plan to include very young or very old guests. In this situation playing a game
of football may not be the best idea but taking everyone to play a round of golf
might be an activity that all of the guest can enjoy.
Still another activity that
translates well into a bachelor party idea is getting a group of friends
together to try an adrenaline pumping, activity geared for thrill seekers such
as sky diving or white water rafting. The exhilaration gained from these
activities coupled with the fear factor makes them a perfect activity for
bonding with your friends. These daredevil activities will cause you and your
friends to bond during the excitement leading up to the event as well as the
thrill of accomplishing a new activity. While these types of activities are
great for male bonding, it is important to remember that they are risky
activities and there is the danger that you might be hurt during these
activities. If this is your bachelor party idea of choice you might want to
consider holding your bachelor party well in advance of your wedding to avoid
last minute injuries that delay the wedding.
Another unique gift idea for a
bride to give to her bridesmaids is a gift certificate to a local restaurant.
Assisting in your wedding preparations was probably extremely stressful and time
consuming for the bridesmaids and they certainly deserve a night on the town and
the opportunity to not have to cook for a night. This simple gift lets your
bridesmaids know that you appreciate their efforts and that you want to thank
them for all that they have done to support you.
Unique gift ideas for the
bridesmaids can also stem from the wedding theme. For example if you are having
a beach themed wedding you might want to give your bridesmaids a gift of a tote
bag, a beach towel and a novel to enjoy on the beach. This unique gift idea
ensures that your bridesmaids will remember your wedding fondly the next time
they are at the beach. Traditional bridesmaid's gifts such as jewelry and
jewelry boxes are always welcomed but if you have a large group of friends and
most of them will be bridesmaids several more times as more of your friends get
married it might be nice to give your bridesmaids a gift that is unique. Unique
gift ideas convey your message of appreciation but also let the bridesmaids know
that you put a great deal of effort into choosing their gift.
