bachelor dinner

Pre-wedding male celebration

A bachelor dinner is a celebratory meal held for a man shortly before his wedding, typically attended by male friends and relatives.

The term is somewhat dated; the event is now more commonly called a bachelor party, which may or may not center on a formal dinner: His bachelor dinner was at the steakhouse where his father had held his own forty years earlier.
