Bachelorette Party Invitation

I did a search on here, and see that people think it's tacky to send out invitations for bachelorette parties? I had no idea.  I was planning on sending out invitations for my cousin's bachelorette party, at which we'll all be meeting up for dinner at a restaurant, then out for a night "on the town" (HATE that term, need some less-lame alternatives) bar-hopping.  It's a pay-your-way type deal.

So, it's tacky to send invites? I shouldn't do that?

    I've received invite to bach parties and never thought a thing about it. But then again there are a lot of things I didn't know were rude or considered so until I joined TK so...

    The threads I saw said something about it being rude to mention on the invitation that people need to pay their own way, or that it's rude in general to send formal invitations to events that you are not fully hosting, or something like that.

    Which, I guess I wouldn't want to say "you need to pay your own way" on the invitations, but I don't think I would need to do that, would I? Do people assume they're being paid for if they're invited out to a restaurant and bars for a bachelorette party?

    I don't want to risk offending people, especially since this isn't even my wedding that I'm doing this for- it's my cousin. Gotta do things right :)

    For a bachelorette party, I would assume I had to pay my own way for everything unless I was the bride.

    I don't see bachelorette parties as rude. I would, however, find it helpful if you could list some of the places the party is going to be, so that people can figure out some guess of how much it will cost (example, if I knew a bachelorette was going to start at a restaurant that was $100 a head, I would probably decline, and I wouldn't have to call the party planner first to see if I could get a rough point and have that embarrasment).

    Invites were sent out for my b-party, but sometimes I just receive a Facebook invite or an email for b-parties. The invites are definitely not rude, they help show everyone when, where, what time, etc...

    I've never been to a b-party where everyone didn't pay their own way and we all chipped in for the bride. So, it's usually expected that all the guests would pay their own way for dinners, drinks, club admissions, pole dancing classes, hotel nights, limos, etc.. whatever it is that the b-party is doing.
