Poll: Destination Bachelorette?
What you realistically go on a big trip for someone's bachelorette?
My friends want to go on a 3-4 day trip for a mutual friend's bachelorette.. Like Vegas or a cruise, so it would be like $600-$700 each if we get a great deal and cheap on the food. I think it would be fun, but I would just feel super guilty because I don't think DH would ever spend that kind of money on one of his friends. Since we share finances it's not like I could just take "my" money and do it. I probably would do it if I'm single, but I'm not. Would you do it, and why/why not?
Re: Poll: Destination Bachelorette?
Because we also share finances, I'd definitely check with DH.
If it were a family member or BFF, he'd make sure we'd find a way to finance it.
If it were an aquaintance, I'd have to really convince him. I probably wouldn't want to go if it were an aquaintance because I can make 600 bucks spread a long way (with me only working p/t, I've become pretty frugal).
I'd base the decision on my relationship with the person, for my sister or a good friend I'd be there in a heartbeat, for an acquaintance... not so much.
I would check with DH, and wouldn't do it if we couldn't afford it, but as long as we could swing it financially I'd go. I would expect that DH would do the same for a close buddy of his too.
If it wasn't someone I was close with I wouldn't consider it though. I've had acquaintances mention inviting us to their destination wedding before - it was odd (thankfully we never got the invite). I would have gone to a local wedding... but we were not close enough to give up a few thousand $$ and a week of vacation time. That's something else to consider - the vacation time. If you don't have much time off - those days can be more valuable than the cost of the trip itself!
It does sound super fun though! If it's a good friend I say go for it!
Thanks... Yeah I feel guilty for not wanting to go... but I think I would feel worse spending the money!
I would - Jer would go for one of his friends and he goes on boys trips when they come up. He would actually encourage me to go; since I don't have a lot of girlfriends.
