Scheduling
Consider throwing the bachelor and bachelorette parties on the same day if it works out schedule-wise.

This is especially true if most of the guests are couples AND from out-of-town.
Everything In One Weekend

Wedding Weekend
Discuss whether throwing the bachelor and bachelorette weekends on the same day a good idea if most if not all of your guests are from out of town.
