Who pays? Bridesmaids

Jr, on August 18, 2020 at 3:59 AM Posted in Parties and Events 0 10
Ok I just had the best shower ever! I have 2 MOH one basically did everything. The other showed up but didnt help set up, clean or pay. It wasnt cheap... one BM disnt clme, she doesnt like the other girls for reasons i can understand. She did send some money to my MOH who bought and hosted.


Next thing is the Bachelorette party. I found a big place and paid for it and if the 16 girls went that said they would it would only be $75 for the air bnb for the weekend.plus they would money for food drinks ect. My closest friends have paid. I have some other friends that have not and are not responsible with money, not that they don’t have it... Im worried that some of them will try to show up without paying and thats not fair! I wont let that happen again. So what should I say?

    To reserve a space, you must pay $75. If you do not pay, you will not be able to attend.

    Though, really, your BP should handle that.

    Simply mention it to them! If you don’t pay you can’t come.

    I agree with this. Just tell them but your MOH should be doing all of this.

    I agree with the previous comments - I would tell them they must be paid ahead of time in order to attend. Otherwise, you will likely never get the money back from them.

    I agree with Rebecca, I'd say to reserve your spot, the fee is $75.

    What if they try to show up? One of the MOH is one I am concerned about.

    I would stay on top of it and a week before send those that haven’t laid a message saying “I’m sorry you are unable to join me” or something like that

    I completely agree with this.

    And your MOH (or whoever is in charge of planning) should not give them the address or any other details until they have paid.
