Planning a Bachelor Party

[The Drunken Actuary]

So I am planning a BP for a buddy and we are thinking of Vegas (of course) but there are a couple dudes that want to go that are real drips. They don't drink and have some kind of strange aversion to throwing dollar bills at naked 19-year-old girls. I'm not even sure if they gamble. I honestly think they may not know what a real BP is. How can I tell them what this trip is going to entail without making it seem like I don't want them to go (I don't) or would be unwilling to compromise my, er, I mean the Bachelor's good time by scheduling non-drinking/nudity/gambling events. One of them mentioned Hoover Dam when I mentioned Vegas. The other one said something about golf. Hoover Dam and Golf are decidedly not what I go to Vegas for, especially when it's a bacehlor party.

Oh, I forgot, it's a little sensitive because one of them is the groom's father and one of them is the bride's brother. (The brides father is not interested in going, thank god).

One possibility:
Two bachelor parties. One in Vegas, and a tamer one closer to home for the bride's family.
When my sister got married, my brothers and I attended the dinner but all begged off the "heading into the city" afterwards. I presume that's standard protocol, but I don't know.
Are the father and brother the ones talking about Hoover Dam?

The other thing you can tell the non-drinkers is that all they have to do is give the girls money and point to the groom and the girls will leave them alone.

BTW, what the hell is a "REAL" bachelor party? Guys are all over the spectrum on this one. Is it Strippers, or strippers who do "Extras"?

Simple, don't invite them at all. 2pac and I will gladly take their places

Oh.

Most of my close friends are guys. I always want to go to their various bachelor party functions, but they never let me. I've gone to strip clubs with them plenty of times, but they are so strict about the "No Girls" rule at the BPs - I don't get it. I think they worry that, even though I've been their friend for years and I really don't know their fiance other than through them, I'm going to lose my self-control and blurt out the BP goings-on to her just cuz I'm a chick. It sucks.

Nope. They just didn't want to risk seeing anything they'd be uncomfortable hiding from their sister(and the risk there was extremely low, my brother-in-law is about as lively as a piece of driftwood).
I didn't want to see anything I'd be uncomfortable seeing period.

i was just funnin' with ya. Regarding a REAL BP, eveyone's is different I suppose, but the bachelor and I (and the rest of us) don't want to spend time in vegas golfing or seeing red rock canyon or hoover dam. To me, a real bachelor party involves lots og naked women, lots of drinking, and when in vegas, lots of gambling. And no, i do not expect/want the girls to have sex with us. Just get naked and dance for us.

When I had to do this, I had two parties. One that was just a tame dinner with all the relatives, and then afterwards we had a party in a suite with strippers and lots of booze. I didn't even bother inviting her relatives or the more religious ones on his side.

Drinking and gambling are cool but frankly, I find the whole stripper thing to be rather tiresome. I can do without it.

I don't see anything wrong with playing 18 holes during the afternoon, then having a nice steak dinner followed by cards and/or gambling and more booze later on. That's my kind of BP.
