Our Story

Your Story

This isn't our story. This is your story. This is a story which will ring true with any best man who has been tasked with organising a stag do for one of his closest pals.

The pressure, the stress, the hassle, the planning! Who has time for all that?!

Sound familiar?

In 1999, StagWeb's founder, Simon Denning, found himself on the wrong end of a stag party invitation. Having been appointed best man it was up to him to pull the party together, but the trouble was, he didn't know where to begin. All the companies he spoke to wanted to charge too much and give too little. It was a major faff trying to arrange everything solo...

That set Simon on a mission to help other guys on their quest to become Stag Heroes, by taking the pain out of the planning process so they could arrange an epic weekend with ease.

Now, a fair few years/parties/hangovers later, we've helped over half a million people celebrate their pre-wedding party in style by working with the best man to create that epic weekend - saving him time, money and hassle.

Painless Stag Planning: You're in Control, We Handle the Hassle.

You'll Save

  • Time - 13 hours
  • Money - £70 per person
  • Hassle - A boatload!

Our Beliefs

We believe in doing things the right way, that's why all our groups get complete financial protection (we're ABTA bonded), that means your hard-earned cash is safe and secure with us. It's also why there are certain things you can't do with StagWeb - you can't watch bullfighting (did anyone ask the bull if he wants to fight?), you can't be chained to anyone of restricted height (we did ask LPUK's advice), but you can have a great weekend! We'll even plant a tree for you to offset your carbon emissions if you wish.

1 X Person = 1 X Tree Planted

StagWeb (Groupia) are proud to announce that we have teamed up with the wonderful folks over at Ecologi to do our bit for the planet and help combat climate change.

From now on, for every person who attends a Groupia event, we promise to plant one tree! For more info see our Groupia plant a tree page.

Making Headlines

Yeah, you probably read about us. We're kind of a big deal...

Our Customers

If you really want to know about StagWeb don't listen to us going on about ourselves like that bloke at the stag do who's just been dumped by his girlfriend.

We're Different

We're proud to be different. We constantly push the boundaries of stag party planning for all our stag do organisers. We were the first stag company to become ABTA bonded, all our destinations have a dedicated Destination Specialist who regularly visit our locations to ensure you're talking to someone with real knowledge. We believe in cutting prices, not corners, so while we strive to save you money, we never compromise on safety or quality because the groom is only going to have this weekend once.

Drop By...

Unlike our calm, cool and collected team of stag do organisers, Event Managers and Destination Specialists, the water here is always at boiling point.

Bring cake.
