Are your fathers being invited to your FH's bachelor party?
My FH's groomsman were planning a weekend in Miami for FH's bachelor party and they weren't planning on inviting my dad. Apparently my mom thinks my dad should be invited...
Thoughts???

FHs bachelor party should be some what local or in the city so our fathers were going to be invited. I think FH even wants my dad there. Hes alot of fun to hang and drink with lol
if It was OOT then no he probably wouldnt be going

ahhh, my BIL did NOT invite my father, but FBIL DID invite his fiance's father when he got married.
I think a big part of it is - is FH's father invited? If so, I think it would be nice to invite yours too.
If not, I think its obvious that its only friends and he would understand.
ETA: if FH has his bach party in AC like he is planning, I doubt the Dads will go at all.

Hmm... I havent even thought about it. I'll have to ask FH about it. I know my brother would feel more comfy going if my dad was there.

FH is having 2 Bachelor parties. One was away, he already had that one. Neither dad was invited.
His 'local' one is the weekend before the wedding. Don't even get me started. Anyway.....my dad is not invited (I don't want my brother invited either but it's too late for that) and it's better that way. FH's friends can be....well let's just say that I don't need my dad to know what they're like in that kind of atmosphere......

I think it depends on the type of party and the crowd. There are no rules so whatever makes FH happy.

I always thought the bachelor party was more for FH and his GM and friends. But I know that Dads do come along sometimes too. I think it really all depends on his relationship with FFIL and where they're going. DH went to Vegas for his bachelor party so he only brought a few close friends.

With all due respect to your mother, she has no say in the matter. I don't know how you can say that to her, but that's what I would say to my mom.

Ladies,
Are your fathers being invited to your FH's bachelor party?
My FH's groomsman were planning a weekend in Miami for FH's bachelor party and they weren't planning on inviting my dad. Apparently my mom thinks my dad should be invited...
Thoughts???
would your dad want to go to Miami... ?
FH is leaving on the 17th of this month for his and he is also going to MIami
Maybe then can do something in NY with teh dads and possibly uncles when they get back.., that is what FH is doing

pretty sure neither dad will be invited....FH is planning to do something with both dads, like a baseball game, just him and my dad and his dad....so maybe something like that would be nice for the dads to do!
ETS: FH will not have strippers he doesn't want them....probably just guys time at a house on the Jersey Shore somewhere....but still no dads

Re: Weddings = stress! Bachelor Party Help!
We talked about it and FH said that he would feel so weird with my dad there but he is more than welcome to come, especially since my older brother and possibly younger brother will be there... So he has no problem with it... However, my father turned around and said NOOOOOO he wasnt going LOL... He said thats personal for him and his friends only... My father would feel weird as well so he wont go no matter what... And I already told his best man that I want strippers at FH's so I think it will save alot of embarassment by my father not going.

don't even concern yourself with this. This is a part of the planning that can be left up to somebody else. When fh first started planning his, i started looking up flights for them and stuff but then i just stopped, i don't need to add more things to do
