Bridal Shower and Bachelorette Party

Brittany, on July 12, 2020 at 12:04 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 3
So, I only have 2 bridesmaids and the closest one lives more than 3 hours away. The other lives 16 hours away. I grew up in Michigan and spent time in the military but live in Texas now, so my family/friends are spread all over and the ones I’d invite to a bachelorette party can’t come. My bridesmaids are trying to convince me to do both a bachelorette party and a bridal shower, but separate people are planning each. They’ve discussed it with me and they want to do the same things in the same month for both. I told them to try to just do one, but my bridesmaids seem to think I really need a bachelorette party, but I feel like it’s a waste of money for 4 people (including me) to do the same thing we’ll be doing again.


Should I stick to one, or just let them throw me both even though I’m not comfortable with it?

    Hi Brittany! I'd stick to your guns and ask for one event, especially if the timeline and guest list would have a lot of overlap! Smiley heart

    Thanks for the response. I went ahead and told them I only want one and to coordinate with each other.
