Bachelorette Party if you only have one out-of-town MOH?

Okay, so my sister is the only person in my bridal party because we wanted it to just be family. The problem is, usually the MOH and bridesmaids chip in and throw a bachelorette party.





1. Can I expect my sister to pay for the bachelorette party on her own?





2. Is there a way to recruit others to help chip in?





I don't want anything fancy. Just a fun evening at someone's house would be great....but it can't be my place because I live with my fiance and it can't be my sister's because she doesn't live around here and will be staying with relatives when she's in town for my wedding. Should we get a hotel room? Could i ask one of my local friends if they could host the party at their place?

maybe get a couple hotel rooms and have a mini spa day, drinks, sit in a hot tub, watch movies, go to dinner, whatever. i would not expect your sister to pay for it. you could do it yourself, or split the cost.
Reply:good grief.....you don't get to EXPECT anyone to have a party for you; if they want to they will, if they don't they won't; if you want to have a party have a party
Reply:How about a night out on the town? Start at a nice restaurant and then hit a bar or two. Your sister shouldn't have to pay for everything - make it buy your own. As the bride, you'll probably get a fair share of free drinks and the cost will be spread around.
Reply:My sisters , friends and I went to the lake for the weekend we all pitched in and just had a girls weekend. It was a lot of fun.
Reply:Hi. Sorry...NO...you cannot ask anyone else to host a party for your or to "chip in."





Why not have a little "pampering party" with you and your sister. Can your fiance go to someone else's place for the night? Set out candles....do a pampering party with a manicure and pedicure....watch a "chick flick"...order takeout. It can all work if you want it to. OR...you and your sis go to a hotel room for the night and do all of the above.





OR...have others come (to the hotel)...and possibly order pizza or something cheap. Perhaps they will bring a bottle of wine or something...but do not expect them to or be disappointed if they don't.
Reply:I wouldn't ask a friend... try asking a close family member instead. My mom and FMIL both offered to throw me a shower. I told my MOH not to throw me another one because 2 is more than enough.
Reply:I would recommend you have the party at a club house or hotel (depending on how many people you want to attend). But I def. wouldn't expect your sister to pay for it on her own. You choose to only have family in the bridal party. I would chip in some w/her and make sure that it's nothing big/fancy. If you just want friends to hang out, drink and have a good time...it'll happen! Congrats!
Reply:ur not suposed to organise and plan whos paying for ur bachelorette party its something thats offerd by the females or a suprize why not just gett all the girls your close to to head down to the pub 1 night and just have a few drinks (and if U want the party pay for the damn thing)
