Plan Ahead
Try to gently talk your guy and his friends out of planning the bachelor party the night – or weekend-before the wedding. An event well in advance of the big day will give the guys ample time to recover and ensure his bachelor party doesn’t land on your list of final wedding worries.
Two Can Play
Why should you sit home and knit while he’s partying with his friends? You’re saying goodbye to your single self too, you know. Even if your traditional bachelorette bash doesn’t fall on the same night, make sure you’re sufficiently distracted by your own good time to worry about his.
Go Co-Ed
Believe it or not - co-ed showers are fast becoming the norm, and bachelor and bachelorette parties are following suit. This is a great idea, especially if you and your man share a close circle of male and female friends. Even if your co-ed party does get a little wild, you’ll both feel much more comfortable knowing that you’re together - and can keep an eye on each other.
Talk it Over
Don’t be afraid to express any of your concerns to your fiancé. You may find that your worries are unfounded. Believe it or not, modern bachelor parties don’t always involve sweaty lap dances with buxom blondes named Barbi. Just as many consist of fishing, hiking and wine tasting. Your guy may even feel pressured by his buddies to partake in traditional debauchery, and he might welcome your dialogue to the contrary. Regardless – remember that you cannot force him to forgo the party (he’ll resent you if you try), so be open to listening and talking about his bachelor party plans.
Have a Little Faith
Even if your man’s crew goes the traditional g-string route, most bachelor parties really are innocent fun. If your guy cares about you and loves you, he won’t commit any transgressions. And if you find that you simply cannot trust him around a few scantily clad women – you may need to investigate whether this guy is even worth marrying in the first place.
Remember ladies, his bachelor party isn’t the end of the world. And if he seems just a little starry eyed at the concept of a night in a strip club, give him a little lap dance of your own. That’s sure to return his focus to you!

I agree with the "Two Can Play" scenario. Why not have your own party there are plenty of great bachelorette party games available today. Some of these games are great for coed too.
I love the co-ed idea! I see more and more couples doing this and having a great final night as "singles" Whoop it up together!
