Las Vegas Bachelor party on a budget
Posted on 1/13/15 at 4:46 pm

Figured I'd ask the money board instead of the OT because maybe yall can give me some budget friendly ideas.
I dont want to be a cheapass, but I also dont want to spend more than I need to to plan this whole thing out.
We are looking at about 8-10 people going in late August.
Should I book hotel and flight together? Where should we stay on the strip? Where should we go during the day/night? Etc.
TIA

You can't afford to have fun in Vegas. It costs money.
I've done vegas on a budget and it sucks

I've been to Vegas one time and it was for a bachelor party. I'll be honest, it's not going to be cheap. If you go for two nights, I'd plan to bring minimum $1500, not including hotel and flight.
I mean that is if you want to party hard, go to clubs, etc. Best thing I did was book our clubs with redcarpetvip.com. They can book all the clubs you want and get you vip service with all the bottles and everything and you pay in advance. They can split up the cost between everyone in the group and you can see who has paid and who hasn't. You need this because it's gonna be hard to get 8 dudes into a club at the same time. Good luck

lulz.
Not to mess with you but Vegas is very expensive and there is no real way to get the most out of without splurging. Others may have better ideas.
One suggestion I do have is to take a club tour. it only costs like $150 and gets you into several clubs with drinks and no waiting in lines.

It's not damn near impossible to get 8 dudes in the club at the same time. You just talk to the VIP host and get bottle service with a $3k-$10k minimum depending on the club and the DJ.
It is in fact impossible if you are trying to just pay cover and go in.
Just don't even try to do Vegas on a budget. It will suck and you will wish you did something else.
Rent a huge lake house for like $2-3k for a long weekend and get some strippers. Vastly cheaper and you'll have more fun.

I'd look at an all-inclusive stay in Cancun or Cabo as an alternative.

Well, if you had any friends who were gamblers, you could get the rooms comped.
You then use some strategic credit card applications to pay for the flights.
After that, you're on your own and still need some fat stacks.
Friend of mine is having his there in March and this is how its going down for the rooms at least. My wedding is two weeks later so I'm making an executive decision not to be there

Did this in Cabo for a friend's 3 years ago. Airfare, all-inlcusive, day offshore, and the backelor's portion was $900, We partied in town every night and the total was ~$1400 for everything including the airfare and hotel...

Yeah but rooms and flights are the cheapest things about going to vegas
Eta: cabo or Costa Rica are way more fun than vegas unless you're into clubs full of douchebags

Not my choice to go. I'm the best man and the groom wants to go. I realize it's going to be expensive, but I was just wondering if anyone had any tips to save money. I pretty much know nothing about Vegas

Hotels will be cheap in August cause it's 120 degrees and not many people want to deal with that
Maybe buy liquor and fix pool drinks in room I stead of buying there
Also get drunk before going out but you'll still have to buy bottles to sit
Don't waste time in strip club

Don't try and do too much in any given night. Pick a target location and limit yourselves to that place. This will keep transportation costs down, and you can use a single host to get you set up at both restaurants and clubs. This will save you on tips for the hosts which is not something you want to skimp. Taking care of the hosts is a better use of money than taking care of servers, but don't stiff your servers.
Do a little research as your trip approaches to find out if there are any special events happening that you would want to attend. You can get tickets for most in advance.

Dustin, give us a ballpark of what your budget is.

I dropped over 10k the last time I went to Vegas

Want to try and save money? Don't gamble, do one of those club tours instead of splurging at one place, be aware of where you eat, and try to be somewhat smart at the Rhino (which is hard because its like no place you have ever been). I am not necessarily recommending you do any of this but those are some ways to save money. Good luck

This.
I have never been in the "club scene" but it has no appeal to me. The idea of paying for bottle service for a table just seems so over the top to me. I have absolutely zero desire to spend that money.
I'm probably lame, tho....don't care
