Bachelorette Party & Evite
Hi all -
A few BMs are sending out an evite to about 15 ladies for a Bachelorette party. We're going to meet at the bride-to-be's house for a few pre-party drinks and snacks and then we're taking a big limo to a few bars. All of this info is being included in the invite. The only thing guests will have to pay for is a big tip for the limo driver (we're getting it for really cheap through a hook-up) and their own drinks. It's all pretty casual and most of the guests have been to similar parties previously.
Question #1: Should the costs involved be included in the invite somehow? (We don't have the limo cost yet, but we know it'll be cheap once split amongst 15 ladies, if I had to guess, I would say about $10pp)
Question #2: Does the bride get sent the evite? I'm thinking she does, the same way we sent her an actual paper invite to her shower.
Question #3: Am I forgetting anything else?
TIA!
Re: Bachelorette Party & Evite
1- yes I would put the cost of what people would pay per person for the limo(even if you say that it should be approximatly $10pp)...knowing that I'd only have to pay about $10 instead of not saying anything and assuming that it's going to cost me $50+ is going to have me more excited to go.
2- Yes I would send the bride the invite but you don't HAVE to, I'd send it as a "FYI this is what your invite looks like!"
3- If people can sleep over at the brides place or anything like that I'd put it in the invite (or what time the limo will be back so they know what time they can be picked up).
Other than that I think you have it!
I would put it at the bottom of the evite.
All costs are covered except for a limo tip (~$10 each) and your drinks
yes, send the bride the evite - it's fun for her to see who is coming and what you're doing unless it's a surprise.
