Mothers at Bachelorette Party

pollackwed17, on December 7, 2016 at 12:16 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 25

So my bridesmaids have been planning my bachelorette party for me in Savannah, GA. Both my mom and future mother in law would like to attend the bachelorette festivities. I don't know if they would attend every event with us for the weekend or not. Is it weird to have your mother and mother in law attend? I mean I don't think my bridesmaids are planning anything crazy or risqué. Just curious!

    My mom is doing my bridal shower while my MOH is doing the bachelorette party. This way they both get to be involved and my friends can still do whatever crazy things they have planned.

    I would so take my mom and my future mother in law but they're super awesome and we always have a great time together. But it depends on your relationship with them; my mom is my best friend and my mother in law treats me like I was her own daughter.

    Just an idea but we did one of those wine and design deals for a friend of mines bachelorette party and it was a blast!

    Seeing as my bachelorette party is now focused around the million woman march on Jan 21, I would welcome my mother and FMIL. They could be two more nasty woman and huddle with us to keep us warm.

    If I was still having a traditional weekend or night bachelorette party with my friends I would still invite them.

    I can't drink because the universe hates me and gave me ulcerative colitis. That said, my bridal party is planning a group pedicure, brunch, and then cooking class with dessert following. I also don't want any penis things near me, so I am inviting my Mom and FMIL. What a great time to bond and connect and laugh.

    ETA: by penis things I mean pink, plastic, weird tiaras and shit. I am a full time dick enthusiast at home (of FH) LOL

    I wouldn't but it definitely isn't weird. I am not friends with my Mom or FMIL. I wouldn't feel like I could completely be myself with them around. I want to let loose and not feel like I'm being judged or watched.

    Thanks for yalls input (: I mean its a weekend trip so maybe they could participate in some of the activities but not all of them? I have a great relationship with both my mom & FMIL. Sometimes I feel like my FMIL could party harder than me though, lol. Also, I really dont want any penis things either but somehow I think its bound to happen! Lol

    I plan on drinking my face off during my bachelorette party so no way would I want my mom or FMIL around. They'll get the PG version of how it goes!

    Im not inviting my mom or FMIL just because they wouldn't really be into partying with us, but FH is taking his dad to NOLA with his group for his bach party. I don't think it's weird at all.

    A girl I know took her mom to her bachelorette party. I've never been to a bachelorette party with a mom in attendance. I think it depends on the party and the relationship.

    Its depends on your relationship, both of mine will be at my party but we do girls nights (me, my mom, and FMIL) all the time. My mother is my bestfriend, I tell her everything. The good, the bad and the ugly. And my FMIL is like one of my girlfriends. FH and I have been together for 7 years, FMIL has watched me give birth twice, nothing could embarrass me in front of her.

    My mom came to mine, and bought me shots. Smiley smile

    We didn't do anything too crazy though, but my mom and I have a really good relationship. Smiley smile

    I think if it was a weekend away I probably would not invite my mom. If it was an in town thing I would invite both my mom and FMIL to at least join us for dinner or some of the tamer activities. I don't know the plans for my bachelorette party but I think my maid of honor knows my feelings on this subject.

    I have been invited and always declined. I am no prude but this is not always the time or place.

    Now, friends and I have done a quick pop in, bought a round and bowed out Smiley smile

    If my mom and FMIL had asked I would have said absolutely not Smiley smile but it obviously depends on your relationship with your mom and FMIL! I'd also think about the plans you have for the weekend and the rest of your friends going. Would it be weird for them, or fun?

    At one bachelorette party I attended this year, the bride's "fun aunt" made a surprise appearance. It was awesome, the bride cried, and the aunt bought a bunch of rounds of shots for the group!

    I wouldn't do it. You want to be able to cut loose with your girls.

    I'm inviting both and specifically asked my MOH(s) to make it mom friendly lol. I'm not really a wild and crazy person to begin with (and my FSIL is in my BP) so I wanted to do something that would allow them to come.
