The Bachelor Party

August 29th, 2010 @ 11:15 am by Mrs. Starfish

When it came time to plan Mr. Starfish’s bachelor party, he wanted it to be a fun weekend with the guys. He doesn’t get a lot of time off from work, so when it came time to plan a bachelor party, he asked his Best Man, BIL Starfish, to turn their annual Saco trip into his bachelor party.

So, what is the annual Saco Trip? Well, a while back, Brother Starfish and his friends planned a weekend trip on the Saco River in New Hampshire. They went canoeing and camping  and did outdoorsy things. Every year they repeat the trip—with just guys only. When Sister Starfish started dating BIL Starfish, he was included in the trip, so Mr. Starfish started going as well. It’s become an annual weekend for the guys, and Mr. Starfish didn’t want to miss it, so he combined his bachelor party with the annual Saco Trip.

Here are a few images from the weekend:

BIL Starfish is quite the planner. Every year they have some odd boat that someone goes on, and this year he got Mr. Starfish a giant rubber ducky.

It looks like it was put to good use. Oh, and there were also sailor hats. Apparently both sides of the wedding party went with the nautical vibe.

The Saco has turned into a woodside spring break-style destination. There are people and canoes everywhere.

While the Starfish girls were enjoying the city, the boys were enjoying the great outdoors.

I’ve had so much fun on the Saco River! Spent a summer in Maine and loved it. I even have a pretty rock on my windowsill that I bring with me wherever I move to, my Saco River rock! Make sure he takes you too sometime :)

My fiance wants to play paintball with his buddies. Then later that night, he wants to rent one of those massive blow-up screens and play video games in the back yard. Of course, this will also include beer and BBQ… Boys will be boys; they never grow up. Lol

My FH is going skeet shooting, to a cigar bar and possibly sky diving. All activities he knows I’m not interested in (strong dislike of loud noises, asthmatic and afraid of heights) so he wants to get those out of the way before we’re married. I think his guys’ day will balance out my Disney movie sleepover plan.

Sounds like my kind of party! I wish Mr. SD would go hunting or something like this, it seems so affordable. He’s going to Louisiana to gamble, fingers crossed we don’t end up like The Hangover!

You.Are.Shitting.ME! Starfish, you need to get on this trip! I look forward to my Saco trip for 51 weeks a year. I totally wanted to do a Bachelor/Bachelorette party on Saco, but it’s prob not going to be as awesome when frozen. You totally hit the nail on the head with the mini spring break description.
