So I have a large bridal party. There are 8 of them. 1 Man of Honor, 2 Brosmaids, and 5 bridesmaids. 2 of my party members live out of state, one in Cali, and one in New York. My wedding is still a couple years away. I was wondering how I should go about planning my bridal shower and the bachelorette party. I don't want the two who travel to have to come to me 3 different times, but I'm also not sure about having the 2 gatherings too close to the wedding day. I've been thinking about having them early, like the summer before or something similar. Is that a good idea? Are there any suggestions? I'm really at a loss right now.
