A friend suggested I do a Pure Romance party for my sisters bachelorette party...has anyone ever been to one before? Is that a good idea, or would it not be too much fun.
Re: Pure Romance Party?
I was invited to a bridal shower for one of the girls I used to work with, and it was hosted by another coworker. They invited everyone from our work, including the old ladies, and then when we got there we found out it was one of these parties. I am completely shy and I thought I was going to die if I had to sit through one more minute of it. They made us come up with like "play names" and I just wanted to run out of that place, esp. infront of all my coworkers!!! It scarred me for life lol
I personally would never go to one again, but I am a complete goody goody. The other people at the party were VERY uncomfortable. My advice is to just make sure people know what they are getting into before they come and it's not some kind of surprise! That way, the people that don't like that kind of stuff can just decline.
My Blog!
Thank you, good advice! I planned to put the agenda on the invite - dinner first, pure romance party next, bars after - if I did it, just so everyone knows exactly what would be going on.
P.S. One of my other friends was invited to one by a coworker at an internship she had just started, not wantint to be rude she accepted, and they were told to show with their hands how tight they think their vaginas are. WHAT? With all these woman she didn't know at internship she had just started, I would be mortifed!
Luckily our group would be a very small, close group of friends.
Good idea about the non-type party, but luckily around here, it's pretty uncommon to invite the mothers/mils to the b-party. At least in our group for sure, the mothers never come.
