Help how to keep the Bachelorette Party PG!

beccainalaska

I am really not a prude but my little (under 18 year old) sisters are coming to my Bachrlorette party and i have a feeling my maid of honor is going to try and pull a varry adult themed night. How do I ask her to keep it pg without hurting her feelings? I am really not interested in having two partys one for family and one for the girls. I am to young to drink so i don't see the point in clubing and am christain so stripers are a no no. I just have this feeling that if i don't say somthing i going to end up with phallus shaped cups, candys, and board games. Any help is welcome

Mention your concerns to your MOH. Focus on keeping the early part of the party PG. Go to a spa, bowling, or dinner. Afterwards your sister can leave and then you guys can go bar-hopping or whatever your MOH's got planned.

In our group of friends, BP are always PG...well...maybe PG-13.  For our group of friends, it's more like a girls' weekend away.  We rent a house for the weekend (vrbo.com) and just lounge around the pool, sip cold drinks etc.  May want to think about that option.

We usually go out one night, dancing at a gay bar in Palm Springs (so much fun and no one hits on you!).  But considering you have youngin's that won't work.

I really don't think it's a problem here to just say hey, my little sisters are coming, can you please keep it PG? PS. A friend who tries to get you to participate in sexual things you're not comfortable with isn't a very good friend.

I am going to a bachelorette party that is based around a scavenger hunt durring the day followed by dinner at one of the BM's homes. 


Planning a day time activity followed by a low key get together is a great way to keep it PG.  I'm sure if you voice your concerns to the MOH she will keep that in mind when planning.

just talk to your MOH about it. if you are friends, she would totally understand - in the first place, it's your bachelorette party and I don't think she would  insist on what she wants and I don't think she wants you to be unhappy on your bachelorette party.

i just told my friends what kind of party i'd like (sleepver with girly movies!!  so lame, i know) and they offered other ideas.  we decided a spa day might be fun, follwed a little photoshoot and  then going out for desserts.  we will also do a sleepover with girly movies:)

Is this her first time as MOH?  Maybe she's been watching too many chick flicks.  Once you mention your family coming along, she might realize that penis gummies, phallic straws, and strippers are stereotypes but not required for the bach party.

An easy explanation is to tell her that your little sisters can't stay out too late. Daytime bachelorette parties are fun: spa, mani/pedis, brunch, etc.
