my husband's best man had called me a couple weeks before and i knew that they woudln't be able to do anything until the weekend of (we got married on sunday). i told him that i didn't really care what they did as long as they were all sober and on time for the wedding, and that it didn't conflict with other plans (we had a big rehearsal dinner, and a party the night before that).
the guys are all relatively low key, and my hubby was uncomfortable w/ the strip club idea - his BM actually came up with a good idea to go to a winery nearby. unfortunately they didn't have too much time so i still feel bad since my girls took me to nyc for a weekend.
i think if you're comfortable with whatever they do, that's great. but you also have a right to tell the best man (and your fiance) that they need to be home by a certain time AT THE LATEST for you to feel comfortable that they will be on time the next day. after all, it is one of the biggest days of your life (and his life for that matter) and the last thing you want is hungover new husband and groomsmen!!

So sorry to hijack the original thread, smt.
