A bachelor or bachelorette party is a celebratory rite of passage held for someone shortly before their wedding. Traditionally thrown by the maid of honor and best man, along with the wedding party and close friends, it’s a final celebration of the individual's single life and an opportunity to honor their upcoming marriage.

These events have evolved far beyond a simple night out. While some parties are still known for wild nights filled with bar-hopping and humorous gifts, modern celebrations are incredibly diverse. They can range from a relaxed weekend getaway at a beach or cabin to an adventurous trip involving activities like hiking, wine tasting, or spa days. The core purpose remains the same: to create lasting memories with your closest friends, share stories, and offer support and well-wishes for the new chapter ahead. Ultimately, it’s a heartfelt and fun tribute to friendship and the journey into marriage
