Stag do weekend before the wedding?

mkw, 15 June, 2015 at 20:42 Posted on Planning 0 2

My OH mentioned the other day that he is considering having his stag do the weekend before the wedding and asked if I would mind. Assuming they don't shave his head or anything I'm perfectly fine with this - in fact it makes sense because his best man and one of his ushers both live abroad so hopefully this way they'll both be able to be there.

The only thing I wondered was whether we're going to have a tonne of stuff to do the weekend before the wedding. I can't possibly think what, although I imagine there must be stuff... lots of little things I haven't thought of! We're not planning on doing too much DIY stuff (and even if we were, it would be me doing it anyway)... Is this a really stupid scheduling decision or will it be okay?!

    It depends on your plans and work schedules really. For us, having one so close to the wedding wouldn't work due to work commitments, but others are able to work right up to the wedding and still fit everything in.

    Have a think about all that you still have to do and which things will need doing last minute- dresses/suits or other things being picked up maybe if you'll be at work the week before?

    My OH had his stag do on the weekend before our wedding, and as our wedding was on a Monday, it was very close! However, I just made sure that everything was done and ready to go before I left him happily with his mates and best man and headed off to my mums.

    it worked out absolutely fine for us, even though he was still a teensy bit drunk on the day itself ?

    It would have made no difference to me when OH had his stag do as I did most of the work for the wedding. All the DIY stuff was done by me as I'm a control freak and didn't trust anyone else to do a good enough job ?
