Many girlfriends have already started planning the brides' pre-wedding parties. Living in an age where one idea is better than another and the implementation of bachelorette and bachelorette parties is very diverse, there is only one pressing question: who will pay for it? In recent years, this question has become, so to speak, a hot topic in other parts of the world, especially because the program of pre-wedding parties has become richer and richer - in the literal and figurative sense of the word.

The bride can also participate in covering the costs

Wants to take girlfriend's bride to her pre-wedding party:

• on a trip;

• to SPA;

• take a yacht out all day;

• then take to dinner;

• maybe give a professional master class;

• and, of course, to give a valuable gift.

The costs of all these positions are far from low, so several important questions become relevant - how much will it cost and who will pay for it?

For a long time, world practice shows that the costs of the pre-wedding party are covered by girlfriends and bridesmaids, and the only person who does not cover her own expenses (because most often she does not know either the upcoming program or how much it will cost) is the bride.

This has already become a kind of unwritten law, especially in cases where the pre-wedding party is planned for one day, without leaving the country and a wider program for several days. However, this law no longer applies if the girlfriends have planned to go on a joint trip or a trip of several days together with the bride.

In such cases, part of the cost is covered by the bride herself, especially if plane tickets, hotel accommodation, several meals a day are included.

Wedding photographer Linda Lauva held her pre-wedding party several years ago with her friends in Spain and says that she covered part of the costs herself, but her friends took care of surprises and activities that she was not informed about beforehand.

"My closest girlfriends and I decided to turn my pre-wedding party into a pre-wedding week, so we planned a trip to Spain well in advance.

We each covered our own flight costs, as well as sharing the cost of accommodation, but my friends had arranged two days where I didn't have to think about anything - they had provided the same accessories and took me to dinner, but the biggest surprise was a "safari trip" together with a wine tasting, which perfectly corresponded to my wedding theme - Lion's Day," remembers Linda, who even got her official one the week before the wedding hashtag or hashtag - # lauvenesnedela .

Donation from the groom

One of the most important prerequisites for a successful bridal shower is for all the girls to feel comfortable. This means that when starting to plan the event, the girls involved should talk about how much financial investment they are willing to allocate.

However, it is important for the bride that all her closest friends are with her and it would be completely silly if someone could not participate only for financial reasons.

If, however, an activity more expensive in terms of money is planned, the groom can also be asked to participate with his, so to speak, donation. If the groom has such an opportunity, he will definitely not refuse and will be pleased to please his beloved in this way as well.

Thanks from the bride to her friends

Often, the brides themselves would gladly participate in covering the costs of their party, but their girlfriends categorically do not support it. In this case, the bride can think of another way to get involved, for example, by providing all her girlfriends with thank-you gifts, uniform accessories, or by inviting them all to a joint event after the party as a thank you.

Organizing a pre-wedding party also takes a lot of time, strength and energy, so, undoubtedly, girlfriends will feel even more appreciated that way.

Likewise, if you are going to dinner or to a bar as part of the party, the bride can offer to call her friends drinks or pay for the dinner. Whether the girlfriends will agree to this is up to them, but they will definitely feel appreciated because of the offer itself.
