Bachelorette Party

I too think there might be too much time btwn the bachelorette party and the wedding but if it works for you then that's great. I think you need to talk to your bridal party and come up with a guest list and a detailed cost projection so that everyone knows what is expected of them cost wise. Even though you give them a year to save, you have to be prepared for some of the girls to opt out.

View quoted message Hey! Thank you

I don’t live close to home right now so I’d be flying back and forth for planning so it would be hard to do it too close to the wedding...

Congrats on the engagement!!
I would say it's too early for a bachelorette - but never too early to start saving money!! I get why you want to have it a whole year in advance though, weddings are SO EXPENSIVE! With that being said; if your bachelorette party people are okay with it.. why not?

I think it's too early, but I like how you want to give your friends time to save up money. You could have the bachelorette May 2022 and that would be a good distance from your wedding.

View quoted message Thanks! It’s tough because I live far from
home at the moment. Would have to fly back and forth for planning the wedding and all the parties

I mean sometimes it is good to plan things in advance, but for a bachelorette, you normally do it a month or so before the wedding as a final party being single.

You can let people know when you are looking to do it, but I wouldn't book it.

I think the bachelorette should be closer to the wedding! Like within 3 months before the wedding. My bachelorette was the weekend before our wedding which I think was TOO CLOSE but as others have said the party is a celebration and send off! So too far in advance just seems weird to me?

Honestly, i think it’s way too early. The bachelorette is a time to celebrate before the wedding, and as someone who will have a 25 month engagement, it’s not worth it to rush things. By all means, take a girls trip next year but save the bachelorette for closer to!

View quoted message If you’re booking now I’d be prepared for the hosts of the Airbnb to cancel - my friends have booked places 3-6 months ahead and have the hosts cancel so that’s the only thing I’d be weary about.

View quoted message My bachelorette party would be in May 2020 and my wedding year is 2021. Sorry for the confusion!

View quoted message We would be booking a house in Arizona through Airbnb for May 2021. The dates are available to book via the app. I was just curious what the time frame is between a bachelorette party and the wedding!

I think so. Some places won’t even book that far in advance for a bachelorette.
