Top Tips For Planning Stag Weekends in the UK

Posted on 25th November 2022

So, the time has finally come when your best mate has asked you to be his Best Man for the wedding. Now comes the responsibility of planning one of the best stag weekends in the UK so he can enjoy his last night of freedom. No pressure then!

Don’t worry though, at Hangover Weekends we have been organising stag weekends in the UK for over 10 years, so we know a thing or two to give you a helping hand.

We offer a wide range of exciting stag party packages to give the Best Man an all-guns-blazing weekend he’ll never forget. Alternatively, we can plan bespoke packages if you have something specific in mind. Get in touch and we’ll see what we can do!

Get details from the groom

Next time you’re down the pub with him enjoying the match and a pint, pin him down and get the all-important details.

Find out when he is available and which dates are a suitable distance from the wedding. After all, remember that eyebrows take some time to grow back!

You will also need to know how long he wants the stag weekend to be, any ideas he has in mind, the sort of activities he might like to do, and who he would like to invite.

While keeping some details a secret is always part of the fun, knowing this information will help you to plan one of the most exciting stag weekends in the UK.

Make a guest list

It’s now time to fire off a message in the WhatsApp group to find out who’s coming and who isn’t. Once you have some firm commitment, moving on to the planning and organising stage is much easier.

To avoid “maybe” answers, be as clear as possible in your message and state a date in which you need to know by to get things moving forward.

Identify time constraints, budget and destination

You will need to consider everyone’s constraints on time, budget and also destination. Without sacrificing too much of what the groom wants, working to suit the majority will hopefully mean that more people can make it.

Pick your package

Without worrying about accommodation and activities separately and trying to get everything to join up, why not consider one of our killer stag weekend packages that covers it all?

Covering Bath to York, we offer epic party nights filled with good food and plenty of shots to clay pigeon shooting and bubble football, if you fancy something a bit different to kick-start the weekend of a lifetime.

Alternatively, if none of our packages fit the bill you can make your own bespoke package by hand-picking accommodation and activities you know the groom will love!
