    My OH's stag do has people who are going to the day and people who are going to the evening. A couple of people are going to the stag do but not the wedding - they were invited but can't make the wedding and he still wanted them at the stag do. I think you can do as you want.

    I think its all down to what you want to do. All of my OH stag attendees are coming all day to the wedding and all of my Hens are coming to the whole thing too.

    I have been on several hen parties and weekends where I have only been invited to the evening though, so don't think it matters either way.

    I'm slightly in the minority here but I think I would have felt weird having people on my hen do that I didn't consider a close enough friend to invite for the whole day. Having said that, we were lucky enough to have the space and funds to invite everyone we wanted for the whole day and had we not been in that situation, we may have felt differently, especially judging by the responses here.

    But you asked the question, and I can only say how I honestly feel and how my H2B feels and we both only invited day guests to our hen/stag parties.

    I really do hate this idea of a stag/hen night being your "last night of freedom". It just doesn't make sense to me. You aren't really "giving anything up" - except perhaps the ability to go and get laid with whoever you want, whenever you want - simply by getting married, and that sort of behaviour should have long since stopped by the time you've got engaged.

    Oh please give it up AJ - it is a figure of speech and we know you don't like it, it's boring now.

    The OP was asking a question about invitations to his stag do.

    MY OH went on a stag do of one of his friends from back home and he wasn't invited to either!! He didn't seem to fussed, but I thought it was a bit rude.
