May 5, 2023 Wedding + So many questions!

Hi all!
I am here overwhelmed with wedding stuff (Lancaster, PA, 5-5-2023!) and figured posting here may help😅. We have booked: a venue/in-house caterer, a day-of planner, and a florist.
I am curious what other brides’ thoughts are for my Bachelorette weekend. I want to plan it (with my 2 MOHs) for either August 2022 orrr September 2022 because I really want to have a beach bach in NJ, my favorite place, and plus it will more affordable and easy to travel to for everyone involved. It’s way earlier than our wedding date but that doesn’t matter, right? Or does it? Just curious although I am pretty set on that decision.I’m also wondering about paying for bridesmaids hair and makeup. I don’t want to be cheap or come across as ungrateful but I also don’t necessarily think the bride paying for that is entirely necessary. I’d like to give them a nice gift or something, as well as give them some thoughtful gift baskets at bachelorette! Maybe just pay for wedding hair? Idk. I just don’t know if it’s necessary to have everyone get their hair AND makeup paid for. Thanks so much,Marie
