Here are our favourite classy bucks night ideas to suit every groom:
Houseboat
Ever considered taking the squad out to the river onto a houseboat? You can take this opportunity to go fishing, go swimming or just cruise along and chill out with your best mates. Plus, this means your classy bucks night doesn’t just have to be one night- it could be two nights! Why not enjoy a whole weekend trip?
Festival
If you’re keen on any music festivals around the time you’re getting married, you could always get the guys to come with you on a little road trip to the festival, catch some sweet tunes and have some festival food and booze with you and soak up the festival vibes.
Quad biking
If you have a need for speed and would rather be out in the open than on an indoor track, quad biking could be a great way to gather the lads ahead of your big day. Kick up the dust behind you on an off-road bush or beach adventure to remember. Who says riding off into the sunset can’t be with your best mates?
Camping
Going camping is another great way to celebrate your impending marriage. There is so much to do, from swimming and fishing to singing songs around the campfire or hiking! This is awesome if you want a really low key bucks night without a whole lot of planning. Pack up the car and take your tent or swags and some food and drink and you’re good to go. Don’t forget the sunscreen and bug spray.

Poker

Head to a show
