Similar to many of you, the last few years have not been easy for us as travel was limited and people had other things on their mind than enjoying a weekend out of town. Since early 2019, were not able to do, or could only in a very limited fashion, what we enjoy the most–plan fun weekends and bachelor parties across Europe. While we were not able to see many smiling faces and people having a great time, we were preparing for the time when we can once again do what we love. WE ARE BACK!!!! We kicked off 2022 once again planning parties across Europe and are just getting started.
With fresh energy to organize the best stag parties ever and many new ideas, we wanted to start new tradition – that is how our newsletter was born. This is the first issue and we plan to keep sending them out monthly. Our goal is to introduce various stag do destinations across the world and provide few tips.
Thank you for all the support and we hope to help you plan an awesome stag do in the future! We look forward to your feedback regarding this newsletter – we hope you enjoy it and find value in it that you will then share with friends.
