Bride wants bridesmaids to pay for her solo bachelorette getaway
A bride-to-be is coming under fire for how she wants to go about her bachelorette party weekend.
The kicker is that she does not even want any of her friends to come—but she still expects them to give her money. Here’s her story.
A Bride Was Thinking About Her Bachelorette Party
A bride-to-be was thinking about all of the things that go into planning a wedding.
One of those is the bachelorette party. When she sat back and thought about it, she realized something.
Didn’t Want A Girls’ Weekend
She realized that she did not want to have a traditional bachelorette party weekend.
She thought that it might be easier if she did something else instead of a weekend away.
She Wanted A Spa Weekend
She had the idea of going on a solo bachelorette party.
She was thinking of asking all of the women in her bridal party to pitch in the amount that they would have spent on flights for a bachelorette party to instead go toward her spa weekend.
It Would Be Easier
She felt that a weekend pampering herself would be a lot easier.
She loved her friends who would be coming but they all live in different places and have children. To her this would be a less stressful weekend.
How Fancy Is The Spa?
The people of Reddit were mostly against this idea that she had.
This person wondered how fancy of a spa it was she wanted to go to that it would be equal to a group of people’s plane tickets.
Rather Keep The Money
This person was also against the idea of having her friends pay for her spa weekend.
She doesn’t like going to bachelorette parties and to her she would rather just keep the money than have to contribute to a spa weekend she wouldn’t be going to.
You Want A Vacation
This person felt that the bride was missing the mark on what a bachelorette party really is.
She thinks that what she is suggesting is wrong and what she really wants is a vacation.
Should Know Better
This person can see where the bride is coming from when thinking about this option.
She does, however, think that she should know better than to think it would be okay to ask her friends to do this.
Crazy She Can’t See It
This person thinks that the bride is crazy to expect her friends to pay for her.
They also think it is a little crazy that the bride can’t realize how crazy that request would be.
She Would Pitch In
This person thought that they would absolutely pitch in for that idea.
She thinks that it would end up being less expensive than a full bachelorette party weekend so she would be all for it.
