Bachelorette Trip

Ashley, on June 25, 2021 at 5:18 PM Posted in Parties and Events 1 10
Hello I need advice on how to feel. I chose 5 ladies to be my bridesmaid and one is my MOH. One of my bridesmaids was upset that I don’t choose her so on the trip she decided not to help with decor and following the plan they had set in place. I didn’t have my pajama party or my room decorated. We also did not do the games they set in place. We went to Montego Bay. I still had fun, we stayed on an all inclusive resort. But it just felt like another girls trip. My MOH felt overwhelmed and just gave up because everyone was drunk and we ended up just going with the flow. Mind you, I didn’t know the plan until we can back home. Am I wrong for being disappointed? These are girls I have known since I was 11 and I just hate that they let a title get to them. It shouldn’t matter who I appointed to be my MOH, everyone should work as a team. Should I say something to my bridesmaids or just keep everything between me and my MOH. Am I being childish crying about things that did not turn out as I pictured?

    It stinks when friends can't put their feelings aside sometimes but you had a good time at an all inclusive resort in Montego Bay and are upset because your room wasn't decorated? Focus on the fun you had and memories you made with your long time friends.

    This reminds me of the post earlier in the week of the bride-to-be who was upset because she didn't get a tiara from her BMs to wear for her Bachelorette even though they planned a perfect getaway trip for her. All I can say is how I am sorry you're disappointed but to put things in perspective the thousands of brides who did not even get a bachelorette, shower, or even wedding due to the pandemic and you're upset because you didn't get a room decorated at an all inclusive resort in Montego Bay?! I get that you're also upset that one of your BMs was being difficult but I'm having a hard time empathizing on this one.

    I just had my bachelorette weekend trip and it didn't have anything bride/bridesmaid/wedding related at all, except Bride Tribe sashes we wore on the first day. Sounds like I would have loved your trip! I'm sorry that it wasn't as bridal and wedding-esque as you wanted it, and you could have told them a few things that you really wanted to have. And maybe a conversation with the girls that its JUST A TITLE - my FH has 3 brothers and had to pick between the three of them for his best man, and the other two were upset even though we told them it's just the "title". And it's your choice who your MoH is - you chose who you chose for a reason, and the girls need to respect the relationship. Hope the drama settles down!

    If you hadn’t known about the plans that didn’t happen, would you have been upset about your weekend?

    Hi Anais I will address the issue with your bridal party and let them know how you felt after hearing everything. And they are supposed to be team bride and should be helping each other. I don't know why ladies get mad about a title they said yes to help make and celebrate you and your new husband day. I've had some crying sessions myself my oldest daughter and oldest granddaughter dropped out of my wedding for issues that would have been resolved. So with that being said I replace her and moving on with the planning hoping to see them there. We always trying to make others happy but aren't they supposed to make us happy

    Part 2 Once that you speak with them that will understand that they should not ruin your day over a title and some things that will be over in a hr 1 1/2. Then it's over enjoy your day let no one bring it down

    To be honest I knew they had plans I just didn’t know what they were. They had been meeting for weeks without me and to come out the country to not do any of them was wasted time and money on their end.
