figuratively) that the stag and hen parties can throw up. So what should you bear inmind? First, it’s about the bride or groom: Choose the sort of party you know they will enjoy and involve them in the planning. Second, consider everybody’s budget: You may have money to burn, but other potential attendees may be on limited budgets for any number of reasons. If you ask them to spend more than they can afford, itwill ruin their enjoyment and consequently that of the rest of the party. Third, set your date and location far enough in advance to ensure the maximum chance of attendees having the date free. David Down, who runs Weston Lodge Shooting Ground just 20 minutes from Bristol city centre, has been providing activity-packed hen and stag parties for 21 years. You can try your hand at clay pigeon shooting, off road karting or quad biking - in any combination you like. There are experienced staff to help you get themost out of the day and competitions with Olympic-stylemedals for the winners. David said: ‘We’re in a beautifulwoodland setting which is part of a working 200 acre farm and have 12 karts, six quad bikes and highly experienced clay pigeon instructors. ‘We have around 500 groups every year, but we never mix the groups, so all our parties have exclusive use of the facilities they book.

‘I think we’re so popular because Bristol is so easily accessible from all corners of
the country, there’s lots of
accommodation, tons of nightlife - and wemake sure everyone has a great time.’ There’s food on site, but many parties choose to do one or two activities in the morning, head off to one of eight lovely country pubs within easy reach for lunch and return in the afternoon for another activity.
David said: ‘Lots of the groups get right into the spirit of the day by dressing up as country ladies or gentlemen and, even if they’ve never tried any of the activities before,
they always have an
action-packed day, which everyone really enjoys.’ Formore information, call 01275 842 225 or 07770 688 918 or visit the website at
