Girls (not strippers) at the bachelor party

Nattie, on September 1, 2015 at 3:12 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 56

So I found this out and I'm not sure how to react. This past weekend was my bachelorette and my FH's bachelor parties. Two of our female friends showed up to his bachelor party. Now that in itself sort of took me aback, but that's not the part that's making me miffed.

One of the girls, a bridesmaid of mine, said all along that she was coming to mine. The morning of, she texted my MOH and told her she wasn't coming because her uncle came in from Poland. BM's wedding is this Saturday. I'm annoyed she bailed.

The other girl, BM's cousin, told us upfront that she couldn't come because her father (BM's uncle) was coming in and she wanted to spend time with him.

Well, both girls showed up at FH's bachelor party. I haven't said anything to either, and I'm not sure that I will. Mostly because I don't want to cause drama before BM's wedding, but also because it already happened and saying something wouldn't do any good.

How would you react? This is weird right?

    I will add though that I am now less enthusiastic about attending any extra events this week for BM :/

    Did they really not think you would find out? That is just weird behavior.

    Man, I'd be pretty baffled by that. Are they good friends with your FH? Like, do they have a lot of prior relationship with him that they may not have with you, or something?

    Edited for clarity.

    WTF? That is really strange. Why did they show up there? Was his in town and yours a destination or something?? I'm so confused about this.

    That is weird. Was his more laid back perhaps? Less expensive? Closer to their homes?

    Not excuses just trying to figure out possible explanations.

    I do find that a bit strange. They say they can't show up at yours cause they're busy, but show up at your FH. And one of these ladies is your bridesmaid? I suspect their visit with their Uncle ended early that evening, but that doesn't explain why they wouldn't show up to your party.

    Without knowing these ladies, i would say it's rude and inconsiderate and not something i would forget about soon. Meaning, i would have a hard time trusting these ladies. Yes, just because of this incident. I would always wonder if they had a hidden agenda.

    Interesting...

    What did your FH say when they showed up?

    The only explanation I can think of is that they're better friends with your FH and wanted to party with him instead, but were too shy/embarrassed/awkward/rude (pick one) to simply tell you that.

    ^^ Staci, I'm thinking along the same lines as you. Not trying to excuse the behavior--just trying to understand.

    I would want to know more because something about this doesn't make sense. Something's up.

    Hmmm, I don't think it's weird to have members of the opposite sex at a bachelor/bachelorette party but I do think it's strange when YOUR BM's show up at the bachelor party instead of your bachelorette. That would rub me the wrong way. I'd be livid.

    ETA: Lauren, you always come in with the best memes.

    Why would they think the guys would want them there? Real question.

    That is super weird. I would have to confront them. Not to cause drama but because I would genuinely be curious why they took to them to go to his bach party and not yours.

    So mine was in Milwaukee (destination) his was Chicago ( home). BM was FH's friend for many years BUT over the past couple years we've gotten really close and she is my BM and I am hers.

    Even if the Uncle visit for the day ended early, wouldn't you think that they should not go to FH bachelor party but party with anyone else? A bunch of our girlfriends didn't go to my bachelorette for lots of reasons so its not as if there was no one else to party with

    And I can't imagine they wouldn't think of me finding out... its the first thing I heard about when I got home >_<

    I wouldn't be able to stay shut. I would do exactly what Lauren said.

    I find this very odd. I would be asking them what was up, but you can always do it in a calm way. I mean, at this point I would just be confused and curious.
