i want to have two bachelorette parties

Laramie, on February 18, 2019 at 12:26 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 6
My maid of honor is planning a weekend getaway for the bridal party at the beach however two of my bridal party are my FH sisters (older) with children who already said they couldn’t attend they could come down for a day. I thought I could do a muted party with like a taco bar and margaritas for our parents, the sisters, my aunt & cousins and then do the weekend trip with the rest of my maids & friends. Is this crazy?

    Ehhhh it seems like a bit much to me. I feel like if any bachelorette party happens its because someone else is throwing it for you. So if a second party were to happen it should be because someone else wants to throw it, not because you're asking for one.

    I think if you are paying for taco bar it is ok. I know I am getting togather with my sister and oldest niece who is over 21 we will get our own drinks. I plan to take my JR BM our to get her nails done. Others can come but I am paying for her.

    I agree with this. For my friend's bachelorette we planned OCMD as a surprise. In the beginning all the girls were on board, then one dropped out for cost reasons. She never offered to do something else for the bride. I think most people just figure well there's one, and if I can't make it or opt out I just miss it then. If they feel bad they might try to offer to do something else simple or like get mani-pedis on them ya know. I wouldn't have the time or mindspace to plan more than one bachelorette as a bride haha

    I don't think it is crazy, but I do feel like it is a bit much. Personally, I'd just let your MOH plan your bachelorette the way she is, and whoever can make it great. My MOH is planning a weekend getaway for mine, and I already know of a couple that can't make it. That is okay, and they are okay with missing it. I know you want to celebrate with everyone, but life is busy, and not everyone will be able to make every event. Plus, planning your own bachelorette...even if it is a second one, is sort of frowned upon because it is supposed to be a party thrown for you. Just enjoy your fun weekend with the ones that can make it, and know that the ones that can't still love you all the same and there are no hard feelings!

    I don't think it's crazy! When my cousin got married a bunch of us went to Miami (from NJ) for her Bach party. We also had a night out locally so that those that couldn't make it to Miami also had a chance to celebrate with her.

    I think what you have in mind is a great way to include everyone.

    This is exactly what I’m trying to get my MOH to do, but they act like it’s never been heard of.
