On the San Francisco Bay in Northern, California lies the welcoming and unique city of Berkeley. While a smaller city, it has an “international reputation,” according to Visit Berkeley, and is known for its historic and artistic culture with lots of diversity. This modern city is bursting with culture, restaurants, cool neighborhoods, entertainment, hotels, shops, and more. It is also known for being home to the prestigious University of California, Berkeley, so it has a college vibe as well. Put it all together, and it is a great city to host your upcoming bachelor party on the water before your Berkeley wedding.
So, how do you plan a bachelor party? It might seem like there is a lot involved in putting everything together, but it doesn’t have to get overwhelming and crazy. According to The Knot, “The bachelor party is a rite of passage for any groom-to-be, and it’s an opportunity to spend quality time with his closest friends before starting a new chapter in life.” For starters, get the basic details together such as the number of attendees, potential theme, food and drinks, to name a few. Then take your ideas and add a luxury yacht on the water with City Cruises Berkeley!
