I know how pressuring it might be hosting the Bucks party as the best man, especially if you’re on a budget with the lads! But don’t worry, as there are many ways you can make that Bucks party a fun one, especially with the right food. This coming Christmas, you can even create holiday-themed treats that will surely get the party started (with a few drinks and good company, of course).

But the question is: What can you whip up with just a few bucks? Here are a few fun ideas you can try to make to impress and satisfy your friends, and the groom!

Awesome Christmas Treats for a Bucks Party

Are you having a difficult time figuring out what to do for food in the upcoming Bucks party in Sydney happening this holiday season? Here are some Christmas treats you can try doing or purchasing:

1. Pizza

Now, what guy doesn’t want a good pizza? Not only are they delicious, but they’re inexpensive and can feed a lot of hungry guys! You can order and deliver a good pizza, opting for the party size, and requesting various toppings for more of a variety.

Plus, you can include some good side dishes, like cheese sticks, garlic bread, and many more! This is perfect for those on a budget and if you’re unable to prepare food beforehand.

But if you can, you can even create your own pizza to serve. Or, have a time during the Bucks party where you can all make your own DIY pizza, with the ingredients laid out. That way, everyone has fun and gets the pizza with toppings they love.

2. Barbecued Food

If the Bucks party will be held in a backyard or by the beach, then you should consider having a whole barbecue, with the smoke and meaty smell adding to the overall party atmosphere. It’s no Christmas treat, but a whole meal that will definitely make everyone stuffed like Christmas day.

Plus, the act of barbecuing does well in male bonding. Rent a grill if you need to and purchase meat like hotdogs, sausages, hamburgers, and prepare various side dishes like mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, French fries, and more. Everyone will be SO full and satisfied, and you didn’t have to spend hundreds of dollars per person!

3. Finger Foods

Now here’s something you can make a Christmas treat out of!

Before serving the huge meals, you can whip up finger foods, which are easy to eat, have more variety, and will allow some snacking along the night while enjoying other activities (with a bottle of beer or two).

You can make various finger foods look more festive in time for Christmas, too. Here are some ideas for finger food:

● Chicken wings

● Cheese balls or sticks

● Jalapeno poppers

● Pigs in a blanket

● Spring rolls

● Mini corn dogs

● Pizza bagels

● Veggies with a good dip

● Chips such as pretzels, nachos, and more!

Prepare these yourself and save a few bucks (chips are cheap, too!) while still keeping everyone filled up and happy.

4. Get Ready for Dessert

You can’t have full meals without dessert! Plus, this is the perfect treat you can make more Christmas-y. After all, Santa loves his cookies, so why not whip up some delicious sweets to cap off the night and sumptuous food?

You can find awesome holiday-themed Christmas treats and dessert recipes you can bake yourself very easily, using ingredients you may already have at home. If not, don’t worry, as the ingredients are fairly cheap, or you can purchase readymade holiday desserts in your local bakery.

I recommend making chocolate peppermint flavored cookies, chocolate bark, or bringing out candy canes and delicious cake for the happy groom!

5. Ready the Drinks

You can’t have a Bucks party without the drinks, and it doesn’t need to be just plain beer! Kick it up a notch this holiday season and prepare Christmas cocktails to get in on the spirit.

Make spiked eggnogs and hot chocolate, tea and cider punch, cranberry gin cocktails, or even pumpkin spice white Russians, the choice is yours! There are many recipes you can follow online.

Not a fan of alcohol? Not to worry, you can make these drinks non-alcoholic as well!

Wrapping It Up

Everyone loves a good party, especially when it’s the Bucks party for the lads and a lucky groom. This holiday season, you don’t need to go all out and spend too much on food and treats. Fortunately, there are Christmas treats you can make on your own without emptying your pockets.

Try any of these treats out and let me know what you think in the comments section below. Good luck and have a great time planning and partying it up with the groom and his lads!
