I just found out that a friend of mine from college (finally) got engaged to her long time boyfriend recently. I am absolutely thrilled for her! I got an invitation to their "Stag & Drag" party which would be in mid-June. This got me thinking about the concept of the "Stag & Drag" party (also sometimes knows as Stag & Doe party.)
I know this is not very common and can be a regional thing, so I''m wondering how many people have heard of them? Anyone been to one? Thrown one?
For anyone who hasn''t heard of it before, a Stag & Drag party is like a fundraiser thrown by the engaged couple, or their friends. It''s like a big party that they sell tickets to with a "donation." There is food and music and some of them will have a 50/50 raffles and door prizes. You open it to anyone, not just those invited to the wedding.
I know some peple think it''s tacky and rude, so I''m expecting some of those feedbacks, but has anyone thought of having one to help off set wedding costs? I''m curious for opinions. I never thought about doing one, but it may not be that bad of an idea!
