Sorry I am about to rant and really don;t wish to offend anyone it's just something that's bugging me so please no one take it seriously.
I am so bloody fed up with hen parties! Whatever happened to one night out with friends having some drinks, dressing up and then going home? Why does every hen do have t last 3 days, be miles away and include staying in a hotel & expensive activities! It's just too much.
My issue is my friend is getting married abroad which is costing a fortune, now one of her bridesmaids has organised a 2 night stay at the seaside (about 60 miles away) with a really slutty dress theme (consider that most of the party are either in serious relationships, overweight or old!) and lots of expensive activities like spa treatments, dinners, cocktail making etc. It's madness! I just feel the bride should have set some ground rules on the understanding that some people have spent a FORTUNE on attending the wedding! I would understand if she was having a cheapy wedding in a local area but even then is it really necessary to have such a big party!?
Ok maybe I am being unreasonable but I just don't think it's fair to expect people to pay out so much!
Rant over, what's everyone doing for their hen party? x
