I'm a BM in an upcoming wedding and the girls are trying to nail down the details of the shower/bach party weekend. We'll do breakfast (just the BMs) at the bride's apt, then the shower at a BM's apt, mani/pedis after, then dinner and drinking for the bach party. There are two different invites going out, one for the shower and one for the bach party, and there will be some overlap.
The MOH is trying to figure out how to handle the mani/pedi situation though. Anyone is welcome to come if they like and knowing how many people can come would help us set up the appts. But if we invite the whole group, obviously we have to pay and that could get pricy in NYC. Would you even put it on the invite? Thoughts? Comments? Flames?
Re: Shower question
She eventually decided something along the lines of the following:
Please RSVP to XXXXX by Wednesday, April 7th. For those who are interested in getting manis and pedis, please contact me for further information. If you are not planning on attending the pampering session, we hope you will still be able to join us for the “Girls’ Night In” festivities.
When people contacted her, she could let them know the costs. It is tacky to specifically call out that they would have to pay on the invites, but for your own sake, I don't think you would want anyone assuming its covered.
But that's a good suggestion. Thanks!
