When to Have the Bachelor Party?

Typically, the bachelor party takes place between 1 and 4 months before the wedding. The “when” will greatly be impacted by how much planning needs to be done for activities during the weekend or all-day event. Making reservations and looking into the schedules of everyone who will be invited is also important to keep in mind.

Remember that some groomsmen might still be in college and have a tighter schedule. Take into account times when these guys would be able to get away from their schedules to join ahead of time.

You also should stray away from planning on a holiday weekend. Doing this might set you up for conflicts with plans that other groomsmen might have previously lined up. This is also undoubtedly a time when hotels and airlines spike their prices for the busier travel seasons.

Thousands of Satisfied Grooms and Groomsmen

Since 2008, we’ve been the go-to site for personalized, unique groomsmen gifts and wedding tips for men. We’re also proud to be the original groom’s gift registry.

I reached out to The Man Registry on a Saturday, just 7 days before my wedding, asking for help with my groomsmen gifts. I heard back within an hour and was able to get 8 personalized coolers in just 3 days. Ordering was easy and the quality was top notch. Would highly recommend The Man Registry!

The Man Registry is phenomenal. The customer service is exceptional - seriously. You send an e-mail and a person (a friendly one at that) actually responds within an hour. Also, gift options are diverse and plentiful so you'll be able to find what works best for you.
