Bachelorette Party

Although the bride shouldn't spend a dime on this night, how much did you spend being in the bridal party?

Re: Bachelorette Party

  • my sister is in my bridal party, but is not going to my bachelorette party.. neither is my cousin.. but my cousin is prego and we're going to the beach for my party.. and my sister is already spending enough to actually fly to ohio for my wedding.. so really i dont think it should matter if you can't participate in an extravagant bach party...
  • Thanks all,
    I took down the original post after I realized my name was posted with it, ( I was hoping to have an anonymous post) I don't want to upset my friend, it's her wedding after all,, but I am a little concerned that she's getting swept along with the whole commercial wedding experience and might not realize how much this means her friends are having to invest as well.

    I meant I would change your username to something other than Cait Thody if your name is Cait Thody. We don't have anonymous posts here.

  • It turns out you can't change your user name. Buggar!
  • Although, my name isn't Cait Thody anymore. GO married names!
  • It's fun to say the name Cait Thody.
  • Nebb, I've never figured out how people have done it before but then you said "I cant go back to get it" and I remembered how wonderful my back button is! I'll have to remember it for the future.
  • Yeah, but you only have 4 posts. You could just make a new one. Just saying. People could still figure out who you are.

  • I'm curious to know how you think it's pronounced ;)

    I tried pressing back and it just kept refreshing to the new page :(
  • Just like it looks, but I'm assuming from your post that I'm wrong, so how am I supposed to be pronouncing it?
  • It's funny, for most people "just how it looks" is "Th-awd-ee"
    But I've have Tah-dee too. Or Toe-dee

    It's "Th-oh-dee". I was glad to take my husband's name and get something people can spell and say. It never made me mad, and usually made me giggle!
  • Kate Toe-Dee? Is that the right pronunciation?
  • I got it right!  I totally thought it was Th-oh-dee!

  • I would have said Thody. It looks like it rhymes with Brody

  • I kept singing "Go tell Cait Thody" to the tune of "Go tell Aunt Rhody," so I guess I got it right, too.  I feel a small thrill of accomplishment.
