Stag and doe

When I was in wedding parties the bride a d grrom handled booze, Main door prize and the hall. The rest of the stag and doe was on us. We got all prizes, food, games, tickets. It was part of our gift to the bride and groom.

Bride and groom for sure should be putting this on and paying for it.

I would say bride and groom since it's really raising money for their wedding. If the bridal party can help with selling tickets, gathering prizes a d running the event itself that would help out a lot for sure. But since the bride and groom chose to have a stag and doe, I'd say they should be responsible for the brunt of it.

View quoted message Ok thanks guys !!! That’s exactly what I was thinking. Bride and groom cover it all other than a few donations. But I’ve been told other things so I wanted to make sure I wasn’t crazy

Hi Kelly, I think that the cost should mainly be covered by the bride and groom. I think the wedding party could help find items for prizes or perhaps even cover the cost of one prize/raffle item, just as Becky said.

We're paying for most of the cost of our's ourselves. My mom has picked up a lot of prizes for our raffle for us, but we didn;t ask her to or require her too. We may ask our wedding party members to each donate a gift card as a prize if they can. We'll need the help of our wedding party to set up and run games, collect tickets etc. the night of.

For us- we paid for it all and the wedding party had been asked to donate something for the raffle table either they would need to pay for it themselves or they would need to get a donation for a local business. This worked well for us- they also sold tickets for the buck and doe like they should as well.

For my Wedding Social it was a mix of both.

Bride & Groom - most prizes, booze, food, dj, community centre fee, social permit, tickets (raffle and entry ones)

Wedding party - filler items, stuff they can get from work, time (they are the ones to man the 50/50, door, texas mickey draw, sell tickets. For the most part we got a lot of help from those who could afford it but not everybody is able to so those who did chip in knew that it was purely out of the fact that they could afford to do so.

Was there anything in specific that you were wondering about?
