Hi ladies,
Another question for you. FI's four GMs are flying in from out of state for the wedding (we're paying for one to fly in ourselves, since he wouldn't have been able to make it othewise) and their paying for thier attire rentals for the day, which is just under $100, but includes everything they'll need for they day, except for undergarments of course. I'm sure that between the costs of travel and the suit rentals, they probably don't have a whole lot of money to spare for a bachelor party or anything of the sort (not that FI is expecting one, but I know he'd appreciate it, you know?) and the topic hasn't been brought up yet by his GMs, probably for that reason. I recently found out that my BMs are hosting a little bachelorette outing for me next weekend, and he was happy for me because I wasn't expecting one, but I know is probably feeling a little down that he may not get to have a similar experience with his guys at this point. My question is, would it be tacky if he just took them all out to a nice dinner or something (and maybe a few drinks), as kind of like a catch up / bachelor / GM outing as more of a "thank you for coming" instead of a typical bacehlor party? We're a bit ahead of our budget at this point, so we could afford to pay for it ourselves. Most importantly, FI would get to have an outing with them to catch up and have a little bit of fun. He hasn't seen most of them for quite some time, and hasn't seen the Best Man since high school. I think that something like that would make FI really happy, especially since we've barely been able to go out at all for the past year, while planning and paying for the wedding ourselves. What do you think?
Thank you!
So happy to be married to my best friend.
