Ladies, please be honest with me. I just recieved an invite to a not so close friends bachelorette party...to be held in 6 months! It is requesting an answer now "so they can plan". Also, it is a weekend long event (in my hometown). When did the bachelorette party become such an event? And sending it so far in advance is coming off to me that I need to make sure to schedule my life around her wedding (but I am PMSing so maybe I'm just cranky). Since this person is not a close friend, would it be rude if I responded that my best friend is getting married the next weekend and I would like to hold off on responding until she has more plans in place for what help she may need or want or should I just RSVP "yes" and change it if necessary?
If it makes a difference, I'm probably not inviting that group (the wives/GF of my FI friends) to my b-party (they are mostly nice, but I'm just not 100% comfortable around them)
Thank you for your sage advice!
