A friend of mine is considering doing her Disney fairy tale wedding, and she'd like to do the bachelor/bachelorette parties in WDW a couple of nights before the wedding. I told her I'd open it up to you guys for advice and suggestions of places they can go to celebrate ("suitable for families" of course!)
Suggestions?
I'm a bit stumped on that one. I figured everyone goes to Downtown Disney for stuff like that, but what would you even do there?
Hmm..what do you mean by suitable for families? Would kids be there?
If it were me..I would have a really nice dinner somewhere fancy like the Yachtsman or Jiko or something..and then I would plan it on a night that MK is open late for EMH. That park is just so much fun after hours! DH and I have literally closed down the park at 3 a.m. and we are basically the only people there.
Of course, if they are getting married the next day that might not be ideal.

Only problem with the MK is the lack of booze. Maybe you go hang out in World Showcase and do a wine walk or something?
Well, I'll always vote for a bachelor party at Jellyrolls!

That's true..I wasn't sure how crazy Annie's friend wants to get since she said "suitable for families". 
If it were my Bachlorette party I'd take your idea for sure!

This is a good idea. Very interactive and it can get rowdy.
I shot machine guns for my bachelor party, so I don't think I'll be able to help on this one 
Even with the suitable for families aspect (though what does that mean, no strippers? I would assume that isn't an option anywhere in Disney).
For the women - have a nice dinner at her favorite restaurant in Epcot, have some drinks, watch Illuminations then head over to the Boardwalk. At the boardwalk, get dessert at Beaches and Cream and head to Jellyrolls.
OF course, those were just the ideas I settled on! If they don't like that, I have more!
Men- Go to Downtown Disney and eat at the House of Blues (best atmosphere for that kind of thing, but could go anywhere). Enjoy the food and a couple drinks, then...Disney Quest! Unlimited video games? Sounds like a pretty awesome bachelor party to me! Afterwards, I am sure they could head back to the House of Blues or somewhere else in DD and go to the bar.
How about a Spa Day at GF or SSR, followed by a fantastic dinner...maybe the Contemporary.

Good idea. You could go to Citricos and then you wouldn't even have to leave the GF. Although it's fun to ride the Monorail (at least when it's not packed)
Even with the suitable for families aspect (though what does that mean, no strippers? I would assume that isn't an option anywhere in Disney).
Ha! Yeah it's hard to find non-family entertainment in WDW.

That's an awesome idea! The spa treatments could be your "bridesmaid gift" to your wedding party.
You could get the spa treatment and then do a monorail crawl.
