My MOH

May 22nd, 2007 @ 1:02 pm by Mrs. Plum

<an email to the bridesmaids>

Hey ladies!

Okay, I know that y’all (myself included) have been crazy busy these past few weeks, what with finals and all (not talking to you grown-ups who have real jobs =P), but now that school is out, we can finally get the ball rolling on this bachelorette party business.

So here’s the game plan: We’re not doing the <insert $650 per night hotel here> or Ghost Bar anymore… we decided that we wanna get drunk and we wanna get crunk on a dance floor and do it all for an amount of money that won’t break the bank… so that’s why that hotel and Ghost Bar are out. Instead, we’re going to do it all in <city>-I’ve already booked an Executive hotel room (top floor) at the <Hotel> (BMs, the cost split between the 4 of us who are attending is gonna be around $XX bucks each-still waaaaay cheaper than the other hotel). The Bride wants to pre-drink cuz apparently it takes a lot for her to even get a buzz these days (…) so we will have some alcohol in the room before we go out. We have mixers (watermelon martini, mango margarita, appletinis, etc.) and vodka so far. Any other requests should be emailed to me ASAP. Check in is <insert date> at 3pm and checkout is the next day at noon.

We’ll do dinner that night somewhere in <insert City here>-let’s get some suggestions, people! We’ll probably hit up a few of the area bars before we go to <a club> to get our dance on… I’m thinking fun places like <ghetto frat bar>, or maybe we’ll be super Asian and go to <insert overly-Asian bar here>. Either way, we’re gonna have a crunky good time =)

Oh yeah, and dress code: The Bride wants us to look classy. So that means everyone in a cocktail dress (black) and she’s going to wear this satiny red HOT dress, with a veil!

As for bachelorette party games, I think I have a special bachelorette deck of cards with dares for people on it somewhere… and I have a booty pincher thingy… and a shot glass on a necklace. I’m thinking we need to invest in a tiara or a sash for her, but I don’t know what kind of stores sell those things. Someone please enlighten me! We can order online if necessary, but everything I’ve seen online so far is fugs. Oh yeah, and no penis things, please, those are just gross.

Any questions? Please please PLEASE email me back with suggestions on dinner venues or bar ideas or any other suggestions… and remember if you don’t say something, you can’t bitch about it later! =P Okay, I think that’s it for now, hope to hear from y’all soon!

I wish. It’s like pulling teeth to get my maid of honor to have an opinion. She was all about Chicago and now that it’s this Friday, she acts like she can care less. My other bridesmaids are pulling all the weight and I’m feeling guilty. I tried to clear the air with her, cause I don’t want my anger to fester, and she said it’s money related that makes me feel REALLY GUILTY. Though I went above and beyond for her wedding when I was 19 and broke!

I know - I think my situation is exactly opposite - the others are either backing out and/or trying to make me feel guilty about it! But it’s not like I was even demanding anything of them , right? bleh - if I had to do it all over again, I wouldve eloped and that’d be that :-p live and learn though i suppose.

I love how she signed her name “CEO of Kicking Your Ass if You Don’t Reply.” If only we could do that on our wedding invites!

You know, after reading this is think it would be better to not have my sister as my MOH…we’re not big partiers, but I know she’s got SOMETHING up her sleeve…

dictating what your friends should wear (classy black cocktail dress) seems a bit too much for me. it’s like micromanaging an event they’re supposed to be throwing for you, but if they’re all cool with it then i guess more power to you! =)

yeah - it was actuall my MOH’s idea. It doesn’t really matter to me what they wear, honestly. I just told her what I planned on wearing and she went with a whole idea :)

So the dressing up thing in black was my idea. I happen to think it’s cute when bachelorette parties coordinate and have the bride wear a color that stands out– and what better color than red to make an impression? I picked black for the rest of us because it’s easy (everyone owns a little black dress) and because it’s perfect for a night out.

So no, Sarah, my sister is not trying to micromanage her own bachelorette– it was MY idea and she thought it was cute so she went with it. I didn’t think that’d be too much to ask of everyone since we all love getting dressed up and we’re going to nice loungey “see-and-be-seen” type places.

Didn’t think I would really need to defend myself on this one…
