Stag do: ideas for an unforgettable day
Tips for activities and personalised details
Before the bride and groom tie the knot, their friends traditionally bid them a fond farewell to their single lives. It could be a soothing day in the spa, simply relaxing at home, or a day trip full of action – either way, a bachelorette/bachelor party is an unforgettable event when the stag and hen are happy. This special day is usually planned by the best man and maid of honour because they know exactly what the bride and groom are interested in and what will be a big hit.
We give you inspiration tips for some great party activities and also a few ideas on how you can integrate photo products into the bachelorette/bachelor party.
Create a look for your stag party with Photo stickers
It’s easy to add a personal touch to things like cups, backpacks, T-shirts etc - with homemade Photo stickers. Everyone will be able to see who belongs to ‘Team Hen’ or ‘Team Stag’. You could either design some stickers with photos of the bride or groom or the wedding logo or perhaps personalise a cup for each guest. The cool Photo stickers are either round or square and you can design each sticker individually using one photo per sheet.
Start the fun with a Photo puzzle
Often the stag/hen do is thrown as a surprise for the bride or groom. Add some more excitement with a personalised Photo puzzle. The puzzle could provide an itinerary of the day’s events and the hen or stag must complete it to find out what is going to happen. The ifolor Photo puzzle with 50 pieces is perfect for this. With a well-chosen photo and/or a short text on the puzzle, you can make a perfect start to the bachelor/bachelorette party.
Note: ifolor Photo puzzles are sent in a box that contains a copy of the picture that the puzzle is based on. Don’t forget to remove this from the box beforehand, so the surprise is not spoiled.

Perfect for the party at home, in the garden, or a picnic. Create a personalised Photo Coaster for each guest at your stag party. Personalise a coaster for each friend with their picture or add your own logo with their initials. At picnics, Photo Coasters are ideal for covering keeping flies out of your cups. And the best thing is the customised Photo Coasters make great gifts to take home after the stag party.
A drinking bottle with your own photo
Especially for trips, hikes, or action-packed stag parties, the SIGG-Bottle is the perfect companion anyone: you can personalise drinking bottles with a photo of each guest and, of course, for the stag and hen. Made of leak-proof, extra-light material, the SIGG-Bottle is perfect for your stag party – and of course, it is safe for carbonated drinks. What's more, you will be saving plastic by using a more sustainable reusable bottle.
A Booklet as a great souvenir
You can use our ifolor smartphone app to put the day's snapshots directly into a small booklet. Simply download the ifolor app, upload the photos and add any finishing touches like comments and small edits and the booklet is ready to order. It makes a unique souvenir of your stag party for the stag and hen or even the friends who shared the day with them.
Stag party planning: making individual save-the-date cards
You can create and send personalised save-the-date card to share details of the stag/hen do to your guests. The classic ifolor greetings cards are ideal for this. Choose from a variety of designs and order them in sets of 10. Design the front of the cards with your slogan or logo or simply add a suitable photo. Then on the back add some information including the date, time, meeting place, programme and what the guests should bring along (bathing suit, sturdy shoes, a change of clothes, etc.). You can also add the names of the guests by hand on the back.
