whatever happened to local bachelorette parties where you just go out for a night close to the wedding? why does everything have to be a long weekend out of state? IN THIS ECONOMY ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

It was really weird to me. We rented a house in a neighboring town and just hung out by the pool doing girly things. It was so relaxing to me! But when the one girl got married they did A WEEK in Vegas
Dude. This. I just went on one out of town and have another to Napa soon and it’ll be easily $2.5k. Let alone I’m in the wedding so add more. I’m too old for this.
This!!!! I’m starting to think about planning mine and society/social media makes me feel silly for thinking about something local but how can I afford a bach trip and a wedding all at once?!
I swear everyone is going on like week long vacations in Mexico or on a cruise or something these days 😠and then the brides get so mad when the girls complain about how expensive it is.
i definitely don’t want to make it the bride’s problem but half of her other bridesmaids are either DINKs or single with good jobs and talk of this trip is stressing me out because i’m just in a completely different life stage ðŸ˜
If it's genuinely something you can't swing, I would be open with her about it ASAP so she can decide to either help you, change it, or rebook the same trip with fewer rooms if needed so everyone else's tab doesn't go up. I know it sucks but it's better to be open vs backing out last minute
And hopefully she will completely understand and not be upset!! As a bride I'm trying to hard to not hold unrealistic expectations of my bridesmaids, especially financially, but it's never perfect.
i’ll definitely tell her if it won’t work, she just asked us this weekend and the trip is still 7 months away so i don’t have enough information to know for sure but it sent me into a panic lol
There is absolutely no way I would ever ask people to basically go on vacation to celebrate ME 😅 I could barely do an overnight without feeling guilty.
