Bridal Party Accommodation invites

Erin, on October 8, 2020 at 5:53 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 5

So I know my Fiance and I are not required to pick up the cost for bridal party accommodations. However, our venue includes full use of the on-site farmhouse, guest cabins and a honeymoon suite (sleeps 28-30) as part of our venue rental. Instead of trying to charge individual guests/couples as part of the bridal party we figured it would be a nice gesture to offer our bridal party (and SOs) to stay with us on-site and we would pick up the tab since most of them are traveling in.

What I'm looking for some advice on is how to word the invite to the bridal party. I want to include an additional card in the invitation only for our bridal party members. This would be to let them know we want to invite them to stay with use the night before and night of the wedding on-site. I can't really find many (or any) examples of this type of card or message being included. I look at it as another way to say thank you to the most important people in our lives.

Thanks!

    I would probably just tell them this info in person or via text rather than spending money on the extra insert especially because the heavier the invite the more you will spend on stamps.

    I would just tell them in person or in an email. I was in one wedding where my accommodation was paid for because the bride and groom wanted us to all stay in the same Airbnb for the weekend, and they sent a separate email to the bridal party with the info

    I agree with telling them in person or via email so that the information isn't overlooked, lost, or misunderstood! I've had a few friends do this or something similar, and they sent out a group email with all the details.

    Also I always book my accommodations wayyy before RSVP time, so I'd want to let them all know before they book elsewhere!

    Ask them via word of mouth (call/text/email)
