Guys! This year has been a rough year for my family and I. I've been staying positive because I know I get to marry my best friend in 99 days but its been hard. The hits just kept coming I swear. We canceled the original bachelorette weekend idea because everyone kept bailing and it just became way too expensive. Then we found a great alternative that was going to cost us pretty much nothing (great! I'm 99 days out and still making a bunch of payments). It was my MOH's families beach house. Unfortunately that fell through because the family is having it remodeled.... womp, womp womp... Well I found a beautiful house on airbnb that I thought would be perfect. Right across from the beach and driving distance to downtown. For 6 of us it was going to be $110 a piece, which I was so cool with (compared to the 500 we were planning on spending on original plan). I just booked the house today and let all the girls know the deposit fee and when the remainder would be due (we are all in a group chat) my sister who is a bridesmaid responded back " I sent $216.46 to cover my full & you... you shouldn't be paying for yourself." I am so grateful because this has stressed me out in general just trying to coordinate with everyone and my sister is flying in from NY to be apart of this. one of our sisters passed away in January and since then this sister and I have grown pretty close ( we were close before but still an 8 year age difference) and I just felt so touched she paid my way for the party AND is flying down for it!
