Bachelorette Party Question

Bachelorette Party Question

Who usually pays for the expenses? (ie. alcohol, party favors, all of bride's expenses such as show tickets, attraction tickets, etc.)

Do the bridesmaid's usually pay for this, or do the bridesmaids plus anyone else coming to the party? TIA!!

I dont know for sure, but I would think everyone coming pays and covers the bride's expenses. Correct me if im wrong tho....

Re: Bachelorette Party Question

Everyone but the bride should chip in and split the cost of all expenses including the brides

In my experience everyone paid for themselves and chipped in for the bride.

My SIL had her bachelorette party in South Beach so we paid for everything but her flight and hotel. It was her choice to go and asking for people to go on a vacation for a party can be a bit expensive!!!!

Re: Bachelorette Party Question

Everyone usually chips in to pay for themselves and the bride. That is how it's worked whenever I've been to a bachelorette party!

In this case, yes, bride pays for her own hotel/flight, of course!

Last year for Fh's cousin's wedding, I was asked to pay for some of the bachelorette party and I was kinda upset..they planned a dinner at an aunt's house and I had to pay for it? If we are going out to eat, then fine, but I was mad that I had to pay for decorations and some catered and homemade food. That is just how I felt.

ETA: I was not in the bridal party

Hmm, yeah this doesn't sound so good. Like for a shower you wouldn't ask guests to help pay, if the bachelorette was at someone's home then... well, yeah, if going out then everyone chips in but the bride.
