Anyone else doing a Jack & Jill party in lieu of bachelor/ette?

Sounds nice - but I'm doing good ol' Vegas with the ladies. ;-)

My MOH did a jack and jill in AC. But we didn't hang out with the guys - they did their own thing, we did ours for a weekend, but ended up having dinner all together one night.

Vegas & AC sound fun. Unfortunately, we bought a house before the wedding, plus I still have to pay the mortgage/maintenance on the apt I own, so our funds were pretty limited & precluded a weekend trip.

I am doing both. Myself, FH and many of our friends are having an extended weekend in Vegas. Friday night is a big party for everyone with the party bus and Saturday night we will be going out separately.

Heather, jealous. I just got back from Vegas yesterday. I love that place

My friend did that. actually, us girls did our own thing first (pottery painting) then we went to the place where she first met her man. He surprised her by showing up and we spent the rest of the night partying.

It was really fun but I think I'm going to let my guy have his guy time. But if you do do that, it'd be nice for guys to go do something and the girls do somethin then meet up at the end.

We are going to do that, the guys and ladies will start out on their own and then all meet up somewhere. My sister (MOH) and cousin (BM) are planning it, so I have yet to know what we are doing.

We're kind of doing both. The day before the wedding the boys are going on a deep sea fishing trip and the girls are going to brunch and the spa. After siesta and dinner the adults are going out to the club.

I really want to go to vegas with the girls! But my FH isn't really confortable with the idea so I'm thinking in order to get want I want we are going to have to go co-ed but like split up the strip they can have the left side friday and we'll take the right, and swap on saturday.. then a hangover group brunch on sunday before we fly back..

Yes, we'll probably segregate my gender after the party bus brings us back, w/each group going somewhere local.

I'm doing Miami with the girls, and FH is likely doing Vegas with the guys!

We just had a few of our friends go to Game Works in Columbus. We didn't really want to make a big deal of it. Everyone had fun though.

We are doing a jack/jill party as well. Surprisingly, Hunny bun did NOT want a bachelor party. He says he's not that interested in paying strippers what he gets for free lol. So were gonna do it up in Miami. The girls will do the naughty gift giving and stuff and we will all preset, get in a limo and go to dinner, then club then strip club for the guys. But since all the girls will be there it will be super fun. I think your wine tasting is a fabulous idea, How sophisticated!

We are doing a combined bach party. Everyone in our wedding party are friends, so it just seemed to be better that way. We are going to have strippers, alcohol, and juts have a good time. we are even thinking about doing some Jello wrestling. lol. I know it seems a bit much, but, thats how we are. We like to party with our friends.

I like the idea! And wow... a bride from my area! Which wineries are you going to? I've been to a few in the hudson Valley.

Hi Jessica! I'm not sure which ones as our best man arranged this for us (he is covering the cost of everyone's tastings, party bus w/hostess & snacks, so all guests have to do is pay for their own dinner). I do know there should be live music and dinner at the last winery and that Brotherhood Winery won't be one of them, lol.

We are each having a seperate party but we are also going to get together with all our mutal friends for one night out.

The girls and I are doing dinner and a baseball game and the guys are doing a typical guys party. (Best if I don't know all the details)

Then we are going to go out bowling with our friends another night.

Oh and bonus for me, my girls and I are hanging out in the hotel room the night before.

Kinda but not exactly. I am having a co-ed bachelorette party as in both guys and girls are invited. FS will not be there though. He is having his bach party separate (all guys).
