Staggering Stags Advantages: VH for the planning of hen & stag parties Disadvantages: none I live in Germany, a country with as many traditions and customs as any other. Yet, hen and stag parties are not among them. We have the Polterabend (poltern = make a racket, Abend = evening). Relatives and friends meet in front of the couple's abode in t ...
