Batchelorette Party disaster

Cancel the out of town party and do something local. Even a sleepover with the just the girls, wine, snacks, movies etc would be fun.

So I'm in a similar situation. My MOH is going through health issues so she passed the baton to me to plan everything. We were going to do a trip to Chicago for around $200pp. After she passed the baton, we switched gears to make it more local and I was able to bring it down to $100pp.

My sister is almost 16 so we had to consider her in all this. So we ended up booking the community room at humane society I volunteer at so we can hang out with dogs and cats for a few hours and give them socialization. We'll have a couple games to play there.

Then we'll just go back to my house (was going to be my other MOHs house but her FIL is now living with them so it would be awkward lol) and have a game night with the option to stay the night afterwards!

Lowkey and honestly way more fun (IMO) than Chicago would have been. With my MOHs health issues, she would have had a miserable time so it's a blessing in disguise!

I JUST got back from an out of town bachelorette party and it was an expensive disaster. I would stay home and do a girls night locally if you really want to keep costs down. Unless you are super organized it is difficult to keep expenses down that low. I have experienced weekends away with an air bnb, food, drinks and activities were less than $250 but that group (my main friends group) do it all the time and are professionals. This last week which wasn't supposed to be more than $300 per person is going to be closer to $500-600 each.
