The 4 Biggest Mistakes When Booking A Stag Do

The 4 Biggest Stag Do Mistakes

Putting in no effort - Mr Can't Be A***d
Doing it last minute - Mr I'll Do It Tomorrow
Thinking it'll sort itself out - Mr Hit & Hope
Booking it solo - Mr DIY

Arranging a stag do is easy...
But arranging a bad stag do is even easier. The difference?

Planning.

Poor planning (or no planning at all) is a surefire way to spoil the groom's big weekend away. If you think you can just turn up and 'see what happens,' your event will unravel faster than you can say, 'I should've booked with StagWeb!'

Less effort

The 4 Biggest Stag Do Planning Mistakes

1. Putting in no effort

Who: Mr Can't-Be-A***d

Attitude: Doesn't really want the hassle, so just books something cheap and easy: 'Yeah, that'll do!'

Outcome:

You miss a great chance to do something memorable
The groom won't be happy his big weekend has been ruined
All the lads feel let down and annoyed that their hard-earned cash was wasted
You keep having to buy drinks to appease the growing anger
And, eventually, you find yourself strapped naked to a lamppost and never invited down the boozer again

"StagWeb made the whole process a lot less stressful"

StagWeb made the whole process a lot less stressful and so much quicker. The suggestions around location and activities gave us all the options to make for a perfect stag do.

2. Doing it last minute

Who: Mr I'll Do It Tomorrow

Attitude: Has good intentions, but he's about as organised as a drunk toddler. He will inevitably leave everything until the last minute with dire consequences.

Outcome:

While more organised stags are partying in Prague, you and the guys are camping in a field just off the M25 as you try to convince them it's a 'Bear Grylls weekend'
As well as making like a bear and having to s*** in the woods, the groom will also point out (repeatedly) what a s*** time he's having
All the lads feel let down and annoyed that their hard-earned cash was wasted
You keep having to buy drinks to appease the growing anger
And, eventually, you find yourself strapped naked to a lamppost and never invited down the boozer again

"definitely use this company again in the future"

Made the whole process of sorting the stag do easy, everyone we dealt with was brilliant, will definitely use this company again in the future.

3. Thinking it'll sort itself out

Who: Mr Hit & Hope

Attitude: Works on the assumption that as long as everyone brings their passport, toothbrush and wallet, then it'll all work itself out.

Outcome:

It absolutely doesn't work itself out
You're all walking round a random city none of you know, trying to find something interesting to do
You finally find something interesting to do, turns out it's a scam, and you spend the rest of the afternoon being chased by a mob of angry stags

"saves everyone a lot of hassle"

It's easy, quick and saves everyone a lot of hassle booking and planning the perfect stag weekend!

4. Booking it solo

Who: Mr DIY

Attitude: I'll sort it all out on my own, how hard can it be?

Outcome:

Goes solo and books everything without the safety net of using a company
A few of the guys flake out at the last minute and you're unable to get your money back
Arrive at the accommodation only to find out they don't accept stag dos
Didn't consider how far the activities were from each other and there's no way you're doing them all
Didn't plan anywhere to eat and now you're desperately trying to find a restaurant that can accept a group of 16 hungry stags on a busy Saturday night at no notice
Finally get to the front of the line at the club only to be turned away at the door because they don't allow stag dos

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

"I wouldn't book a stag do any other way now"

Great weekend in Dublin, from the booking of the event to all the fine details during, StagWeb were a pleasure to deal with. I wouldn't book a stag do any other way now.
