All your Wedding needs
Weddings wouldn't be complete without holding the traditional bucks and hens night as the bride and groom finally say goodbye to being single. They're normally held the night before the engaged couple exchange "I do's." But because so many distasteful things usually happen during these parties, future husbands and wives now want to hold the hens night and the bucks night way ahead of their scheduled wedding day.
Much like the wedding itself or the honeymoon that comes after, the celebration calls for cautious party planning. The best man or the bridesmaid are the ones who are usually in charge of arranging such parties. The soon-to-be married couple, though, may also suggest things to make the event more successful.
So, what are the things that must be observed when planning or organizing these parties? What should those involved do during the appointed night? If you're the one tasked to take of the preparations you need, you should keep in mind the different aspects of such traditions.
Although activities that are normally included in a bucks party have a slight difference from those involved in a hens party, the details are pretty much the same. So, what should you remember when planning for such parties?
1. Identify the different activities that you and the group will do during the entire night. All right, so visiting strip clubs, watching lap dancers or macho dancers, and getting served by topless waiters or waitresses are all part of the deal. However, you can still think of other exciting activities aside from these traditional ones.
For a Bucks Party, why not consider having a mini poker tournament right at the buck's place? Or, you may opt to go on a cruise instead. There are harbor, river, and dance cruises that you can choose from. You may opt to have a striptease show for the timid bucks and see how he reacts to naked sexy women dancing in front of him. If you want to tickle his funny bone, why not have a 60-year old or a 350-pound woman perform a lap dance for the groom?
For a Hens Party, you can have the hens pampered with a relaxing Thai or Swedish massage on a spa. Or, let her learn the art of lap or belly dancing through a private show featuring a professional lap or belly dancer. So, who says only guys may have all the fun?
Include a harbor cruise with a hot stripper to provide the entertainment and some gorgeous topless waiters to keep girls refreshed. Aside from that, you may also plan to bar hop the most popular bars and restaurants around the city.
2. List the games and dares you'll have for the party. No Bucks or Hens party is complete without the customary games and dares. They definitely add to the fun and excitement of these special events.
Suggested bucks party games include movies and cards drinking games such as "James Bond," "Pirates of the Carribean," "Roxanne," "Beerpool," and many more. These games will surely induce all those laughter and fun to most of the boys in the party. For extra entertainment, why not play some pranks on the buck?
For the bride, trying out these hens party games and dares will surely be fun:
Let the hen and the participants go on a scavenger hunt that will test their determination, endurance, and most importantly, their sheer guts. Divide them into groups, give them each a list of items to look for, and set a definite time limit. Make them find a strawberry-flavoured condom, a dildo, a Frank Sinatra LP, a hardbound Kama Sutra book, or a "Happy Meal" toy.
As for the hen alone, you may dare her to do the following: give her mom a ring and say the wedding is canceled, demonstrate her all-time favourite sex position, gobble down two pitchers of ice-cold beer, or grab the microphone and belt out an opera piece. These dares will surely make the hen sweat profusely and add more to the fun that you're all having.
3. Choose the place for the party. If you decide to have a private striptease show, having a private place is a must. This will assure you that you guys won't get messed up by pranksters like what you might encounter if the party is held in an open bar. Also, having your own place will give you a sense of privacy and security aside from ensuring that you can do everything that will please all you.
4. Shop for some cool and naughty items. The hen and the buck must receive some gifts from their friends. Although settling for the traditional ring gifts is not a bad idea, it would be better if you give the celebrants some extraordinary presents. For the hen, you may give her party hats, veil, sack, necklace, or a cake shaped like a penis. They'll surely make the hen elicit some sheepish smile and giggle. For the buck, why not give a boobie bow tie, a boobie apron, or some balloon that are shaped like a mammary? Wrap up these great naughty gifts and see the smile on the buck's face once he gets to open your little surprise.
Needless to say, Bucks and Hens Nights surely promise a whole lot of fun for the bride and groom and their friends. They're definitely great ways for the future husband and wife to enjoy their last night or weeks, as in some cases, of being a certified bachelor or bachelorette. You must remember that the success of the said activities depend on how you've planned their every facet and how those that will participate in them respond to the games and dares included. Keep in mind that you all should make the most out of the activities and just enjoy the sheer fun that goes with them.
