Planning and organising tips
Organising a stag do can be a lot of fun, but it can also be overwhelming. One of the most important aspects of planning a stag do is organizing and scheduling the events for the weekend. In this blog post, we will provide you with some tips on how to organize and schedule events on a stag do to ensure that everyone has a great time.
Start Early - The earlier you start planning, the better. This will give you more time to research and book activities, and will also give the attendees enough notice to book time off work and make travel arrangements. Start planning at least three months in advance, or longer if you plan on going abroad.
Create a Schedule Once you have a list of activities, create a schedule for the weekend. Consider the time it will take to travel between activities and plan for some downtime. Make sure the schedule is flexible and can be adjusted if needed. Provide the schedule to all attendees in advance so they know what to expect and can plan accordingly.
Choose a Theme Choosing a theme can add some extra fun and excitement to the stag do. The theme can be incorporated into the activities and even the dress code. Some popular themes include:
• Sports
• Retro
• Superheroes
• Beach or tropical
• Casino or James Bond
• Country or western
Mix it Up Don't schedule too many similar activities in a row. Mix up the activities to keep everyone engaged and excited. For example, if you have a morning activity like go-karting, schedule a relaxing afternoon activity like a spa day or beach day. Consider the interests and preferences of the group and make sure there's something for everyone.
Consider Budget Make sure to consider the budget of the attendees when planning activities. If the group is on a tight budget, consider free or low-cost activities like hiking or exploring the local area. If the budget allows, splurge on a once-in-a-lifetime experience like skydiving or a private yacht rental.
Plan for Surprises To make the stag do extra special, plan a surprise activity or event. This could be anything from a private dinner at a fancy restaurant to a special performance by a comedian or musician. Make sure to keep the surprise a secret until the event to add some extra excitement.
