Jack and Jill Party

stefaniewattie

So FI's BM and a couple other WP members have talked to us about a jack and jill party for our stag/stagettes, rather than doing seperate ones, Im thinking it is a good idea, but Ive never been to one and I dont know anyone who has, So I was just wondering what any experiences anyone has had? good or bad. so we can decide whether or not wed like to do it that way!

Thanks!

Jack and Jill as in fundraiser for the wedding?  Or just a joint bach party?  A boys and girls bachelor(ette) party is fine, but don't have a fundraiser for your wedding.  Super tacky.

oh god no, never a fundraiser...ive never even heard of that. Just a joint stag/ette party.
Just wondering if anyone has done this and what their experiences were.

We had a semi-joint bachelor/bachelorette party. We were still living in CT at the time, and my MOH and DH's best man rented a party bus that took us up to Mohegan Sun for the evening. The party bus was co-ed, but once we got there, I went with the girls to a club while DH and the guys went to other various bars and hit the tables to play cards and stuff.

We had a blast, and a lot of people mentioned how much fun it was to have the guys on the bus and vice versa. I've also attended a joint bachelor/bachelorette party for one of my best friends a few years before mine. Her's was co-ed the entire time. A party bus took us to New York City for the night to go to a club and we had a lot of fun at that party as well. Sometimes it can be more fun when everyone's involved especially if you have a big group of friends that's co-ed.
