Dear Poll: Would You Have a Joint Bachelor/Bachelorette Party?

DearSugar — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 11:00:00 -0800

Living it up with your closest friends one last time before taking the trip down the aisle is a big part of getting married. Most brides and grooms plan their bachelor/bachelorette parties months in advance, and they're usually events that are talked about years later.

While it's customary to have single sex soirees, some couples - Fergie and Josh for example who partied it up together last night in LA - opt to have a joint bachelor/bachelorette party. I've never been to one myself, but I think it'd be a blast to join forces like that - the more the merrier! Since the choice is yours, tell me . . .

Dear Poll: Would You Want to Know?

DearSugar — Fri, 16 May 2008 08:00:49 -0700

Bachelor parties are known for their wild and crazy antics. It's a time for boys to be boys and for good friends to let loose and revert to their partying ways. But when you add in the code of secrecy that so many bachelor parties abide by, it can leave the women curious and worried about what really happened.

I'm all for guys having alone time with their friends, and while I'd like to think I wouldn't be a controlling girlfriend who needs to know all the details, I just don't know if I could resist asking! Since I'm torn on the subject, tell me, would you want to know the specifics of your fiance's bachelor party, or are some things better left unsaid?

Bachelor Party Has No "Happy Ending"

GiggleSugar — Wed, 14 May 2008 03:00:00 -0700

We posted this a couple months ago, but felt that it was too funny not to bring back for the wedding party week. The tradition of hiring strippers - aka "exotic dancers" - for a bachelor party goes way back, but what does the "exotic" in exotic dancing really mean? These guys find out that it can mean a feminist interpretive dance about childbirth and child loss, complete with a dramatic reading of the lines: "Babies, babies, babies! Mama's milk makes baby better. . ." Now that's how you celebrate your last night as a bachelor! Whoo hoo!

Now That's an Exotic Dancer!

These guys get more than they bargain for when they hire an exotic dancer for a bachelor party. Girlfriend here is what I think they call a "modern dancer." Her interpretive theme for the evening? Childbirth, child loss, and other libido-killing topics! Hey, it's "exotic" compared to the usual stripping and grinding! I bet his fiancée picked this one out.

Do you Really Want to Know?

Bachelor parties were made for boys to be boys, a time for friends to party it up one last time before sending off one of their own to wedding bliss. Most of the time, men use this opportunity to revert back to their wild and crazy years of bachelorhood, most often being more outrageous than ever before. While we think we know what goes on during those male weekends away, the guys tend to abide by a code of secrecy.

So ladies, do you think it is a good idea or a bad idea to ask what really happened at your fiancé’s bachelor party? Do you even really want to know?

Bachelor Parties

Wed, 27 Dec 2006 13:03:08 -0800

If your husband had a bachelor party [ which most say it is their chance for one more last stand before they get committed] Well if they had one, and had a one night stand. Wouldn't that be called cheating. I've read stuff about it on here, and well some girls say they wouldn't care. How could you not care about youre future husband having sex, or getting blow jobs, making out with other girls? I think it would be hard to watch your husband have a bachelor party. I wouldn't want to get married not knowing if my husband cheated on me the night before. Do you "have" to have a bachelor/bachelorette party?

Bachelor Parties- Are they innocent?

Mon, 18 Dec 2006 03:23:58 -0800

Ok this may be a really dumb question but as the idea of a wedding in my future quickly approaches me Im left with one thought.....What really goes on at a bachelor party??? Sometimes with egotistic males its hard to tell whats the truth and what is just an attention getter, egoboosting fairytale. Is the bachelor party's true intentions for the Groom to have his last chance for the final "One night stand" before he gets hitched?

Hotel Offers a Hangover-Themed Bachelor Party Package

TresSugar — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 14:00:00 -0700

I don't know if you've seen The Hangover, but I can't imagine aspiring to replicate the weekend those guys have, what with a live tiger in the bathroom, a live baby of mysterious origin, and a missing groom. But apparently, Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas thinks this pop culture reference will resonate with bachelors.

It's offering a Hangover-themed hotel package called Ultimate Hangover. Here's the sales pitch:

Some guys just can't handle Vegas, as demonstrated in the new motion picture The Hangover. But this town's easier to handle if you've got the tools to recover from a hangover of your own.

Forum Tower Royal suite? Check. (Also, checked for tigers.) Food to take the edge off? Check. Use your $50 Serendipity 3 food credit for the Hangover Omelet, loaded with bacon, French fries, mushrooms and cheddar. Hair of the dog? Check – use your $50 pool credit for a round of bloody Marys at the Garden of the Gods pool complex.

I'm not gonna argue with the power of a hangover omelet, but if that uses up the entire $50 food credit, those mushrooms had better be truffles. Still, I have to give them points for creativity. What amenities would you want after a wild weekend in Vegas?

The Hangover Gets Its Laughs From Dubious Places

TresSugar — Wed, 20 May 2009 06:00:00 -0700

If you watch TV, I'm sure you've seen the trailer for the new bro-centric comedy The Hangover. The movie follows a group of best-dudes on a wild bachelor party weekend in Vegas where they get so messed up they can't remember anything that happens. I have to admit the preview garnered a few reflexive chuckles out of me, but after reading some more critical reactions to the movie, I see some troubling references. Child abuse, violence, nagging women, the Holocaust, a cameo by a convicted rapist (Mike Tyson), overweight people, and extreme alcoholism are all used to inspire laughter from the audience. Do you take issue with these types of "bro" movies, or do outraged viewers need to lighten up?

Do Tell: Is Super Bowl Sunday a Good Time to Meet Guys?

DearSugar — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 13:30:00 -0800

When a guy is totally into the game, chances are he'll be oblivious to the girls around him, but fair weather fans might take notice! The Super Bowl is not only one of the biggest sporting events of the year, but it's also a day to overindulge, which means parties will be plentiful. And while it's not typically considered a day to meet guys, I happen to think it's a perfect time to stumble upon an eligible bachelor, and in his element to boot! What do you think -are you with me on this one?
