Hey all! Sooo my finances little sister (age 16) is one of my bridesmaids, but because of her age I don't really feel super comfortable having her there as there will be alcohol and she wouldn't be able to go out with us.

Hey all!

Sooo my finances little sister (age 16) is one of my bridesmaids, but because of her age I don't really feel super comfortable having her there as there will be alcohol and she wouldn't be able to go out with us. Does anyone have any advice as to what I can tell her? I don't know if she is expecting to be invited to this but I have a feeling she would be. I love her but I just think this should not be something a 16 year old should be at. It's also out of town and she will be in school. Any advice on how to tell her? Thank you all ☺️

    Hi! I would suggest just telling her that unfortunately the bachelorette party is 21 and up due to alcohol but you would love for her to be at your shower as well as maybe a dinner for just the two of you.

    At 16- I could see how she could be really hurt you don’t want her there. She’s not a baby and she’ll probably feel left out. It’s not like 16 year olds don’t drink or have never seen other people drink. I mean come on- you people act like she’s never seen drunk people. I can tell you I’ve been watching my parents and their friends and family get smashed together since I was a little kid.

    If I were your 16 year old sister I’d be absolutely devastated.
