8 Budget-Smart Tips for Planning a Bachelorette Party

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Valentine’s Day is around the corner and with the onslaught of engagements already after the holidays, everyone will be planning weddings…and bachelorette parties to go with ‘em. Be it your sister or best friend, planning a bachelorette party isn’t easy—especially when trying to consider the bride’s wishes and everyone’s wallet. Ultimately, money matters play a major role in where, when and who celebrates. That’s why it’s important to consider the financial obligations of such an event and look at ways to reduce spending. With a touch of savvy planning though, you can curb costs while creating a memorable last night out for the bride-to-be.

1. One-Day Bash

Though a weekend-filled bachelorette party is a great way to spend quality time with the girls, limiting the celebration to a single day will reduce costs for all. Pack the day with fun festivities to make the most it. Start with morning mimosas at a local spa while getting pampered with massages and manicures. Grab dinner and drinks at a trendy restaurant downtown and dance the night away at a nearby club for a memorable “last night out.”

    If part of the bachelorette day is a morning at the spa, does that mean the host will be paying for the bride-to-be’s spa treatments? Does the maid of honor ask the other bridesmaid to split the bill? What is the protocol?

    Instead of a destination party, bringing the destination to the party with a cute theme can be fun, but only if that’s what the bride to be wants, of course!

    As the soon to be MIL….What is expected of me for the bachelorette party? How do I know if the bride would prefer I skip this party and only attend the shower?
