Need Ideas for Jack and Jill Party and/or Separate Party

Help!

Wedding is around the corner and we are just know talking about doing a bachlor/bachlorette party or a combined Jack and Jill Party next weekend.

Atlantic City/NYC! You can all have a nice dinner together and then go out to a bar/lounge/club or gambling if AC with either just the girls or as couples. Or, for a more subdued experience, enjoy wineries on LI. get a limo and go for a private tour/tasting. enjoy!

I am definitely doing separate parties..The wedding is really all about the bride so the bachelor party is like the one thing that the groom can be the center of attention and go all out. If you trust your FH it will be fine. And I promised myself i will not act all crazy when he is at his and call him off the hook. IF he spent all that money on the ring and stayed around during the planning, you have nothing to worry about!!!

I am having my bachlorette party the same weekend as his too. But he is going to AC and mine is in the city.
Good luck!!!!!!

Opinions... LOL. Anyway, Are you looking to do something overnight, for the weekend or just a few hours in the evening? You can do a night cruise out of the city, or go overnight to Mohegan Sun or one of those type of places- where you can separate to gamble, meet back up to all have dinner together, etc. Overnight to Montauk or some place out East could be nice too- ladies could have a spa day, guys can play golf, everyone can do dinner and dancing after. I also know theres a one night cruise out of manhattan, may be a Royal Carribean ship- it goes no place but offers all sorts of dining and entertainment.
Hope this helps!

we did a jack and jill in vegas and it was so much fun. Even if you want to stay local, you can do similar things we did which was

first night, the entire group did a party bus and club hopping. Second night girls and guys split up and had separate dinners and night altho we kept running into eachother randomly

third night we did guys and girls again. the fun thing spread out thru the weekend was a scavenger hunt boys against girls! girls won and boys had to buy breakfast

I planned my brother and sister-in laws combined bachelor/bachelorette party. During the day the Guys went to a Hockey game in NYC and the girls went to a spa in LOng Island. Then we met up at a bar/resturant at 6ish and had dinner/drinks then went out to a bar and all had a great time!

Few hours on Sat night. We love the water so we are looking for a place that has live music right on the water. Thanks for the ideas!
