who throws a bachelor party on a THURSDAY night?

Jennifer, on August 5, 2011 at 3:05 PM Posted in Planning 0 14

Wow....who does that? Go ahead and bash me but I have to rant about this.

hubby went to a bachelor party and of coarse he drank WAY too much and came home drunk as a skunk 2:30am. Ended up waking me up, pissed me off, and I still had to go to work at 7 am.

So.....consider when you are throwing a bacherlor/bachelorette party.....think of those who have to work the next day and especially to those who cant control themselves at a party (like a my hubby) who ended up tkaing the day off. cause he woke up drunk.

    It's not even about guests who can't control themselves. It's kind of normal and accepted to get totally sloshed a t a bachelor/bachelorette party. However- by having it on a Thursday- they kind of forced everyone attending to take that Friday off. Sorry- but your guests have to take time out of their lives to attend your party, and attend your wedding. It costs their time and money to buy you gifts, or buy you drinks or whatever... Now, they have to take one of their vacation days to attend your party... Kind of rude and presumptuous...

    It IS about guests who can't control themselves.....I mean really....maybe it was the host's intention not to have a drunken mash.

    I'm not a big fan of "let's go out and get stupid drunk to celebrate our friend's wedding" parties.

    YES Meghan! I think that is why Im so ticked. I really like this couple and after this, Im jaded now. Tomorrow is their wedding and now I will see them in a different light. Sucks.

    And Im SO mad at my hubby and he knows it. I told him before he left for this party to PLEASE consider those around you (aka me who is 3 months pregnant). Coming home and waking up someone who is already having a hard time sleeping is inconsiderate and selfish.

    Celia: actually the host of the party IS a raving drunk. :-) And whe my hubby and him get together...well, all bets are off and forget that its a schoolnight.. ugh.

    When I had my bachelorette party, I wanted to have a good time and I new alcohol was going to be consumed. I also planned it for a Saturday night about month prior to the wedding.

    A friend had GREAT party that NO alcohol was consumed. I sorta wished I went that route.

    Celia- I'm certainly not condoning the drunken behavior. That is it's own issue...

    But expecting guests to take an additional day off work is quite inconsiderate... Even if the drunken bash wasn't in the plans, expecting them to stay out that late on a work night is not okay. If they wanted something lower key- that's fine- and could have ended it at a reasonable hour.

    That does stink, however where i live Thurday nights are a HUGE night downtown, all the bars do specials and the clubs have promotions for reduced cover so i could see but, but not if you had to work the next morning, maybe he could have gotten a hotel with his boys.

    I'm sorry your hubby was so rude though and woke you up! Not cool

    Ours will probably be on a thursday..but thats because of the whole BP being from out of town and it will be thursday before wedding or nada. Unless everyone wants to fly or drive back and forth to Florida another weekend which is doubtful lol

    In my area usually the younger crowd "College Students" party on Thursdays so like Danielle said bars have specials. I'm not sure you should be mad at the couple though.

    Your husband is an adult and he choose to go out and get trashed. Just because it is a bachelor party does not mean you have to stay out all night and drink irresponsibly.

    My FH was invited to a bachelor party on a Wednesday night in Vegas. The reasoning for this was that the groom is in the military and only had a small amount of time off for his wedding. He flew out on Wednesday for the party, drove to his parents house on Friday, rehearsed and got married on that Saturday. FH didn't go because he couldn't get the time off and the groom understood that.

    While yes, it is somewhat rude, no one forces anyone to go to party. Your FH could have said no.

    I understand the whole pissed off wife thing. One time, my ex and I were supposed to go camping with his cousins. He was going to pick me and all our stuff up after work (which would have been around midnight). 12:15 rolls around... no ex. 12:45... no ex. 1:00... no ex. This was before either of us had cell phones. I didn't want to call his house and wake up his parents but I was so worried about him. He finally shows up around 1:30 high as a kite. He had spent that time smoking pot with his co-workers. I was so effing pissed off and he thought it was hilarious. I didn't talk to him that night, the whole drive to camping (about 6 hours) and even a few hours after that.

    You mean he can't go out without getting raving drunk, even though he knows that he has to go to work the next day? That's no one's fault but his own......
