Mom @ Bachelorette?

My mom asked me if she is invited to my bachelorette party... is this normal? I was under the impression that your bachelorette is something that your MOH and bridesmaids throw for you. We don't have any other older women in our family, so it would be just my mom with a bunch of young girls all day,...
My mom asked me if she is invited to my bachelorette party... is this normal? I was under the impression that your bachelorette is something that your MOH and bridesmaids throw for you. We don't have any other older women in our family, so it would be just my mom with a bunch of young girls all day, and I feel like she would probably feel awkward or left out. My mom and I are close and I feel really bad because when I told her that it was just bridesmaids for the bachelorette, she got offended. Are you guys inviting your mom to your bachelorette? Do you think I should invite her?

    It is completely your choice! If you want to invite your mom, do it.

    Personal preference. My mom does not drink & doesn’t like it when anyone else drinks - especially me, so she did not join.

    I’m inviting my mom because she’s more of a partier than me lol. I can’t wait to hang with my mom and my girls since I live far away. My mom was also disappointed that someone else threw my bridal shower so this can be her thing.

    My mom asked me the same thing and I felt super awkward about telling her no too 😅 I’ve seen some girls include their mothers and even FMIL, but ultimately it’s up to you and definitely depends on what kind of bach party you’re having. My mom is definitely not coming over next Friday night for all the penis themed snacks and activities 😅 but I did end up inviting her to the paint night the next day, along with her friend and my aunt (but they bailed which is another story 🙄).

    It really all depends on you, if you want her there or not. The type of vibe you're going for, if she's easily offended with dry/sexual humor, assuming there is anything like that that is.

    My mom was a cool lady as she got older my mom when i was young your typical strict mom so if my mom was alive today i deff would invite her bc you only have one mom make as many memories as you possibly can with her. My mom died at age 54 and wont get to see me get married so its up to you if she feels out of place or something she can always leave early but at least you tried and made some memories with her ...thats my thoughts though...just have fun its your day

    My mom will be invited to my bachelorette. I’m an older bride and I don’t think they’ll be planning anything outlandish that would embarrass me so I don’t care. If I were younger I might feel differently but my mom is fun most of the time.

    My moms my best friend so she'll be at mine but that's just our relationship. If you don't think it's for the best I would just tell her.

    I’m really close with my mom but she wouldn’t think of going specially not by herself. I had a destination bachelorette so she didn’t go but if it was local I don’t think she’ll go either way. I guess you can incorporate her somehow at dinner or morning activities and then she’ll probably go home afterwards.

    My mom and my aunties are coming to my bachelorette party. To each their own though. We’re all very close, and they know how to have fun!

    My mom is my MOH and my grandmother is my braidmaid. These two ladies are going to be the ones that throw my briadal shower and my bachelorette party for me. I'm not really going by traditional stuff. I'm making my own

    I love my mom but I definitely didn’t invite her/want her there! We get along great but also don’t have the kind of relationship where I would’ve felt comfortable....drinking out of the penis straws that my girls bought....around her 😳

    I’m kind of surprised reading how many moms went in these comments! I just did not see my “last hurrah” as a place for my mom! 🤣

    If you want your mom at your bachelorette, that's totally fine for her to come!

    My mom will not be coming. I’m doing an incredibly small paint pottery & dinner affair. She wouldn’t be able to get lost in the crowd, she’d try to take over the conversation. So, big no. But I also don’t think it would ever occur to her to want to go.
    But hey, whatever works for ya.
