Making Everyone Welcome
A stag do is a time for the groom and his closest friends to celebrate and have fun together. However, it's important to make sure that everyone feels welcome and included, regardless of their background, interests, or personality. In this blog post, we will provide you with some tips on how to make everyone feel welcome and included on a stag do.
Get to Know Each Other Before the stag do, make sure that everyone has a chance to get to know each other. You can do this by organizing a pre-stag do event, like a dinner or drinks, where everyone can meet and chat. This will help to break the ice and create a comfortable atmosphere.
Consider Everyone's Interests When planning activities, consider everyone's interests and preferences. Make sure there's something for everyone, whether it's an adrenaline-fueled activity like bungee jumping or a more relaxed activity like wine tasting. It's also a good idea to mix up the activities so that everyone gets a chance to try something new.
Be Inclusive with the Planning Involve everyone in the planning process to ensure that everyone's ideas are taken into account. Encourage everyone to contribute ideas for activities, themes, and destinations. This will help to create a sense of ownership and inclusivity for everyone involved.
Be Mindful of Dietary Restrictions Make sure to ask about any dietary restrictions or preferences when planning meals and snacks. It's important to ensure that everyone has access to food that they can eat, whether it's due to religious, ethical, or health reasons. Don't assume that everyone eats meat or drinks alcohol.
Create a Safe and Respectful Environment It's important to create a safe and respectful environment for everyone on the stag do. Make it clear from the start that any kind of discrimination or harassment will not be tolerated. Encourage everyone to speak up if they feel uncomfortable or if they witness inappropriate behaviour.
Provide Some Alone Time While it's important to spend time together as a group, it's also important to provide some alone time for individuals to relax and recharge. This could be as simple as scheduling some downtime between activities or providing some quiet space at the accommodation.
