My best friend’s sister is getting married and I’m invited to the bachelorette party which is like 2 hours away for a weekend. I’m really not close to her sister and I can’t stand her friends. I don’t want to go. Does it seem bad if I don’t go?

If u push yourself to go and just try and enjoy yourself making the most out of it I think you would have fun!

Offer an alternative? Anytime I don’t want to go to something if it’s hosted by someone I would feel bad canceling on I just offer to lunch with them within the week fr

Honestly, I say go. You only live once and you might be pleasantly surprised by how fun it is. And if you don’t have fun that’s okay, you showed up and you tried and that’s all that matters. And if you don’t go that’s also okay!

It’s an invite it doesn’t mean you have to go there is nothing wrong with not going and if you do go and can’t stand her friends then wouldn’t that make everyone feel awkward and you might not be able to enjoy it cause you don’t like people there

I’d say go, and if you really are having that horrible of a time you can always leave. It’s only a 2 hour drive

if you truly don’t want to go then don’t. i’m sure she doesn’t want people there who don’t wanna be there on her big day.

This was the case for me once, the main reason was so I could be there for my best friend since she too wasn’t close with most of her sisters friends. We were also the only ones underage but the brides sister (my bff) was the MOH so she wasn’t gonna not go. It ended up being a lot of fun, we ate all their snacks and drank all their booze and got to finish whatever drinks they didn’t like when the bartender wasn’t looking lol. Don’t speak to a single one of her sisters friends to this day!

i’d say go but if you’re really getting whipped out of shape about it then don’t go. I’m assuming your best friend will also be there, that seems like a fun time

That being said, just planned a Bach for my own best friend and I dropped out of the wedding because of the shit show it became from her shitty fiance and friends I don’t like. So do whatever you need to do in order to choose peace and have fun. I think the fortunate thing about not caring about the bride or bridal party is you can let it roll off your back instead of dreading the carry over drama at the wedding itself
