mil Attending Bachelorette Party?

If I missed it I'm sorry, is your FW going to be there? Like, you'll be partying with her mom without her there? That seems odd. Even if she is going, then she's at a bachelorette with her mom. Hm. I can't see any way of this being anything but awkward. UGH.

That's.....just odd. I'd let her know that won't be possible but offer some sort of event that she can be involved in.

Good call. Hope that appeases her a bit.

I think it's a little odd, not because of her age but because of her relationship to you! Even if you are close and you guys get along great, she is still the mother of the man you're marrying and I get how that could be uncomfortable! My bottom line for bachelorette parties: if you can't 100% be yourself around them, don't invite them.

I was shocked how many girls assumed they would be invited to my bach....I don't have a big circle of friends and I feel like a ton of my spouses friends wives were adamant about going, and I barely know them. I had to have a sit down convo with them and tell them I valued their friendship, however I wanted to keep my circle for the party very small so everyone was comfortable. I bet you MIL would be receptive to that since you guys are so close! Maybe you could suggest a fun night out to celebrate just you two?

I'm sorry - I should've been more careful with my pronouns, I knew your spouse was a woman from a prior post and I completely forgot!! I didn't mean to be insensitive!
