    I gave ideas of what I would like to do and what not to have under any circumstances. I do not want a stripper. Apart from that I know nothing. My BM is organising the lot. I know where it is as had to organise flights but she would not let me help at all. Quite excited about it now. x

    I am organising my own but only because my CBM has a 2 yr old and has enough to do with making the bridesmaid dresses.

    I've organised my own. My bridesmaids have been kept in the loop but I found it easier this way. We have booked a spa weekend for 10 people which is me, 2 big bridesmaids, mum, my Grandma, OH's mum, OH's step mum, OH's nan, my aunt and my bridesmaids mum! We're thinking of a piss up night about 2 weeks after the spa weekend as we'll be up my parents part of the country where my school friends will be for dress fittings anyway. Undecided so far! I will be having a playzone party, just me, my niece (4.5) who is my bridesmaid and my cousins son (14m) (who if walking well on his own, will be pageboy!) as I don't want my little CBM to miss out! (Yes, my CBM is 4!)

    I have sorted both my hen weekend and my hen night because I have no adult bridemaids!

    My CBM arranged my "main" hen do - which is a weekend away in Marbella (wasn't meant to actually know this but long story short, CBM's mum slipped up and blurted it out by accident ?)

    Then I'm arranging another one which will be for the older family members and others who won't be coming on the weekend away. It's just much easier for me to organise that one because of members of OH's family that my CBM doesn't know, etc. It will just be a cheap and cheerful thing I think - dinner and a disco or something.

    Hope that helps!

    It's entirely up to you. Mine is being organised for me - I don't know anything about it other than a date...

    If you want to arrange it yourself, go ahead and do it! If you want your bridesmaid to do it and they've not mentioned it yet, ask them if they'd be willing to sort it out for you.

    I've organised part of it myself - going to Dublin for a weekend. Only having one bridesmaid and she's 10 so would've ended up at a High School Musical party ;-))

    Got 20 girlies coming - I booked the flights and that's all I've had to do. Someone's booked the hotel and I know they have lots planned for me but won't tell me what;-(( Am a little bit scared ;-))

    I've arranged most of mine as CBM has no internet at home n lives about 80 miles away.

    5 of us are going to Go Ape during the day then we're going round town at night. CBM is sorting things out for the night tho, i've just invited people.

    I think it's up to yourself, the BM doesn't have to do it, you could arrange it all yourself but with all the rest of the wedding details to organise then it might be quite nice to have your BM do it. If she is organising it and you are quite fussy about what you would want and don't want then it might be an idea to have some input into it though, make sure she knows things like if you would hate to have a stripper or something like that. xx
