Bachelor party etiquette?
Is it in bad taste to exclude the grooms' brother from the festivities? I'm trying to plan things from a few states away and his little brother continues to be the biggest problem. He's only 20 (every strip club and bar in the area is 21 just to get in the door, has no drivers' license and is a *little bit*odd (he got us kicked out of a bar 2 years ago because he kept staring at the bouncer. They aren't all that close (hadn't spoken in almost a year when the wedding was announced)
I'd like to include him, but short of going to ******* chucky cheese, I just can't think of a good way. Input please!!!! |

In situations like that (underage sibling--not odd sibling), I've seen a two-stage bachelor party. Stage one is usually a barbecue or something. Stage two is bars and strip clubs.
What does the groom want? That's most important.

The only bachelor party etiquette i've heard of is to let the groom have first dip in the stripper.
As far as the little bro, if he seems out of control, just have him removed from the party.

Have the strippers come to you. If the little bro gets out of hand, you can beat him like a drum. That makes for a complete bachelor party. Never seen much etiquette at one. Except for the first dip rule.

The number one rule is do not allow any cameras. Turn off all cell phones and lock them together in one box. Do not write anything down, and pay with cash, no credit card receipts.

The groom is a bit of a pushover, so asking him is pointless. The two stage idea sounds viable.

Yup, been to a couple with two stages, where the more risque stage excluded brothers or other family member of the bride (at least the ones who couldn't handle seeing the groom doin' "stuff"). Sounds like just the thing for the li'l bro.

I've been to bachelor parties at strip clubs and even the girls wondered why we didn't hire them to go to a party somewhere else.

The number one rule at my bachelor party was that NO ONE mention it was a bachelor party to the "ladies". If you've ever been to a strip club for a bachelor party, you know why.
The no camera thing was well understood. There was an incident during spring break in college with the same group of guys that made that rule well understood.

Go North to Canada for a good time, Toronto or Montreal. Ask anyone who's gone.

Do they have strip bars in Jacksonville AR? And if they do, how is the talent? I like the two stage idea and exclude bride family members unless on super secret lip lockdown. I did not boink the stripper at my BP. I wonder what percentage of Pelicans did? Maybe a poll is in order.

There's one strip club that shows up when googling and then several in Little Rock, which is nearby. I'm not terribly worried about him boinking the stripper (that was always been my job in our duo), but the last few times we've gotten togethor for big bashes, someone has ended up hospitalized. I have this nagging suspicion the bride would be less than pleased if he's attached to an IV when he says 'I Do'. Myself, his father, his brother and a small handful of his friends are the grand total of the grooms party, so renting out a hall somewhere is a little overkill.
I'm probably going to call his dad tomorrow and see if we can't work out some ideas. |

Rent a chick. Or two. At somebody's house that is trustworthy.
Is the bro just goofy? Maybe he has never gotten it.  Sending him out on a goose chase will only PO him if he finds out what went on w/o him. Make him more likely to spill the beans to the wifey 2B

Probably will end up staying away from the commercial establishments and just doing things at someone's house. I've got flex cuffs somewhere around here and I'm about 2x the lil bro's size.
What's weird is lil bro, by all rights, should be a freaking chick magnet. The kid is a pro ballet dancer and has better muscle definition than guys at body building competitions. |
