All these calls for divorce before the marriage is really getting me down.

I was the best man for someone in a similar position. All you have to do is to even the scores. That means that you are essentially planning for two parties, a bachelor party and a bachelorette party. Hire strippers to both. Smoke weed. I betcha the ***** won't complain anymore and nobody is gonna accuse no one that they are keeping all the fun to themselves.

Let's face it, even if you don't do it, you think that girl and/ or her girlfriends are going to be sitting at home reading novels? They will be likely be at a more rambunctious party while you and your friend are stuck at a lame 6th grade camping trip sharing what could've been.

Your friend sounds like he needs an intervention, not a bachelor party. First, he seems to be forgetting that the bachelor party is as much about the attendees as the guest of honor. What if they hate camping? A good bachelor party doesn't needs strippers, but it at minimum should have include steaks and booze. Second, I agree with everyone who said that it's the principle of standing on his own two feet that is at stake here. I give this marriage five years tops.

I will keep you guys updated.

And yeah, we are at full-blown "Saving Silverman" red alert here.

I am considering bailing. I cannot let my best man resume be tainted by this.

I don't even want a bachelor party if/when I ever get married. I agree with all the other posters though. There's a good chance he's making a mistake. Then again, maybe he's that lucky guy that finds the right woman in high school and never looks back (like kwilk).

Here's where things aren't looking too good:

1. Hes starting with the "Its my day so I say we are doing _______" crap. And that crap is "camping."

2. Hes never been allowed to smoke a cigar and will not do it just in case she ever would find out (also his finace's rule).

3. The fiance (and him) say "no drugs and no strippers."

4. Now I'm being told I need to book it a month in advance because the fiance says so (WTF?).

5. This is his first and only girlfriend (of 6 years now).

6. Hes totally the kind of guy who would tell his fiance what went down at the bachelor party.



What to do?

I almost want to politely decline. But I kinda want to fight the power.



Go camping and book it a month in advance. Bring lots of booze Hire strippers and have them come to the camp in role play (camping gear), whereby they pretend to befriend your friends and drunkingly (or play drunkingly) strip for them and hopefully the drunk groom. Take pictures as black mail so he never tells his fiance. Take drugs and cigars too and see if he drunkingly agrees to use them.

Which explains why he objects to drinking/strippers/drugs. But it doesn't explain his very strange thoughts on wives/girlfriends/fiances making rules for their men to follow, and the man being enough of a wuss to not stand up for himself.

aside from me pocket calling my wife, my design director had the greatest bachelor party of all time. i don;t even know where to start, but it ended with 4 strippers making a human centipede, albeit temporarily
