Does FIL get invited to bachelor party?

AshelyJ., on March 10, 2017 at 9:39 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 14

My fiancé is wondering if he is supposed to invite my father to his bachelor party? The guys throwing it are a pretty crazy group. So he's torn on what to do.

    Traditionally, no. Are you inviting your MIL to your bachelorette?

    It's a personal choice. For my bachelorette, I did not invite my FMIL. I felt it was an evening to go out with my best friends, and I also didn't think FMIL needed to witness my alcohol intake limit. There are lots of other bonding activities with future in-laws that can be done pre-wedding without the bach events.

    That would be weird. Bachelor/bachelorette parties should be with the people you can let loose in front of

    I would think that would make him extremely uncomfortable.

    I wouldn't invite my FMIL (that would be a nightmare), so I would say no on inviting your father. If your FH feels like he needs to do something still, he can arrange a tamer day out.

    Also adding that my FH decided to do a baseball game with his dad and my dad for a day out together. Sooo something calm like that is an option.

    Yea no I don't think that's necessary at all. In fact it's a little weird. Maybe your dad and FI could do something together a little more low-key (lunch, fishing, shooting range, a hike, etc.). My 13 year old brother is a groomsmen. He won't be going to FI's bachelor party for obvious reasons so FI is going to do one of the above activities with him. I think it's sweet.

    I wouldn't think so unless your groom and his groomsmen were really close with your father and wanted him there. Your father will most likely understand as it's not a typical thing to invite your FIL to your bachelor party.

    Depends! FIL is throwing FH bachelor party, they are really close! Also FFIL is very young and a partier.
