The possibility has been mentioned that my FH's 2 BM and his friends might be planning his bachelor party in Costa Rica. I am not thrilled with this idea and neither are any of their gf's or wives. How would you ladies feel?
I just dont see any good reason why they should need to leave the country for a bachelor party. It's ridiculous, especially since we are having a destination wedding in Vegas, which is going to be expensive enough.
Just wondering if I am being irrational by asking them to keep it within the US?

I don't mind, FI is going to vegas for his bachelor party. I plan on doing the same for my bachelorette party.

I would not be happy at all. I feel that a Bachelor party should consist of one night to go out w/ friends and celebrate that your getting married.....not that it's your last night of freedom.. A VACATION TO COSTA RICA should not be a bachelor party.

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
I don't know I would be really upset if FI tried to tell me what I can or can't do for my bachelorette party. He knows he can trust me and has nothing to worry about. If he started saying I can't go to vegas I would get really upset because i would feel that he doesn't trust me.

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
FH's best friend is getting married 3 weeks before us so they are having a joint Bachelor Party. They are all going to Cancun. I really don't mind. I trust FH 110%. I think it will be nice for him to get away and relax with his friends for a little while. I don't have a problem with it.

honestly, for me, if they can AFFORD it without any difficulty, i don't think i would care. i actually have told my FH that i wished they could all afford to go to Vegas. they originally threw around the idea of going to Brazil for his bach. party, and realized it would be too expensive.
i just want him to have a great time. if you are worried about shady things going on, i really feel like it won't matter if the party animal friends take him down the street or across the globe....it can happen anywhere!
if they can do it, trust him and know that he will do the right thing, no matter where he is.
that's a very mature outlook and VERY true... but i'm not as mature as you and i'd HATE it

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
I do trust FH 100% eventhough his friends are shady when it comes to women. I know he would never cheat on me and has never loved anyone the way he loves me. I guess it's just the thought of him being in a place that he wont even be able to call home for the entire time he is there and his cell wont work or anything. That ***** and worries me, especially since he would be ziplining and rock climbing and doing slightly dangerous things...I guess we'll just have to see.

EH don't even worry about his friends, I am sure he'll know how to handle them. Also, costa rica has phones and they will have phones in their room, it's not that bad there

I think you girls should go with them and have a joint bachelor/bachelorette party.

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
My FH's best man is planning a Candian gettaway for the bachelor party. My only request was that it does NOT happen the night before the wedding, since I can't bear the thought of all the guys being hungover the day of. I will worry a bit, yes...not just about the trashiness that could be involved, but I'll also be paranoid that they might have an accident or end up in jail. But those are normal things to worry about. I trust him and want him to have a good time.
The thing about Costa Rica is that I doubt they would be able to go for an extended amount of time, and even if they go for a night or two they'd probably be doing the same things they could do locally!

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
FH and I just got into this over the weekend. Mine is being planned for Vegas and all of a sudden him and his cousins were also planning on Vegas too. I'm younger than FH, he has traveled more than I and I hated the idea of him also going to Vegas (at diff. times.) After a lil' fight he says that he really wants to go to Mexico. I too thought it was annoying that he would be going out of the country but then again another friend of ours is having a bachelor party in Cuba. FH, a law student, said no to this. Therefore, there isn't much I can say. Bachelor parties are one of those touchy wedding subjects for men. They want something fun with the guy's. In the end we'll all be ok.

I dont think I would be thrilled but at the same time if their wasnt an issue with $ than he could go. Id prefer for him to stay around NY than that far away but if its what they want to do its ok by me.

I think I'd be upset if he was going to Costa Rica and I wasn't going to someplace as exotic (that's just me!) More jealousy than anything. Also the $$$ thing.
I agree!

I agree. I'd have FH bring me some souviners! But then again he doesnt have the $$ to go to away other than our HM!

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
My FI wants to go to CUBA! Not only is it out of the country but its illegal!!!
I told him if he is in jail - he is still getting married live via sattelite!
Seriously though, I think Bachelor and Bachelorette Parties have gotten out of control! I went to Cali for one, FH went to vegas for another. It is supposed to be 1 night. And now a days - its not like you never party with your friends again!!!!

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
It's funny. My BM is putting together several possible plans, pricing them out and whatnot. Honestly, as I don't know how big my bachelor party is going to be, and I don't know who from my people dispersed around the country, to me, personally, i'm more concerned with making sure my boys can get there.
That said, if it's causing no financial difficulties in your joint budget... imo, I don't think it is that big a deal. Vegas can be just as sketchy; so can AC, hell, so can Long Island City in Queens or the strip clubs in hell's kitchen. Would you have an issue with him going to Montreal or Toronto?

Re: Speaking of Bachelor Party's, How would you feel?
I think it depends on why they are going to Costa Rica.
