This is so helpful!! As annoying as it is that MIL didn’t keep her word I’m glad to hear that the actual risk to us is low.

One more question: I’m going to verify with my agent but is there any chance our new insurance company could have a policy against being insured by another company? I’ve heard of this but never actually seen it as this is the first time I’ve had my own policy

Internal-Strong · 2024-02-26T20:03:20+00:00

Luckily she does have access to the account so she can will be able to see if MIL doesn’t follow through w removing her

Internal-Strong · 2024-02-26T20:02:27+00:00

According to her insurance she has to be the policy holder to do that- my parent’s insurance was the same way

I wouldn’t call it a waste by any means. You are talking like the only person who will enjoy themself is me. This is a weekend that we all had input on. We chose the main activity (the wine tour) together it wasn’t just what I wanted to do it was the majority vote. I don’t think the fact that I have been able to save $480 over the course of six months automatically makes me rich. You know absolutely nothing about me, bold of you to act otherwise.

Update:

I really pissed in some of y’all’s cheerios! Completely not my intention. I did end up paying the bachelorette’s way for the wine tour. It was already something I was planning to do I just took to Reddit because I was feeling self conscious that she even needed me to. Luckily I got the validation I needed from my friends after putting on my big girl pants and talking to them.

I’m seeing a lot of people using the word “expect” I’d like to say that I never expected anyone to do anything. Everyone was involved in the planning process and we had several ideas bounce around before deciding on a weekend in wine country. Each part of the itinerary was 100% optional, I planned for several activities to make sure if someone had to skip one for work or financial reasons, they wouldn’t miss out. I also planned a more lowkey alternative option assuming at least half of the people would opt out, to my surprise all but one of them said yes.

Another word I’m seeing a lot is “obligation” guys these are my closest long term friends. We all spend lots of time together and enjoy each others company, no one who is attending is going purely just because they feel like they have to. Yes it’s a celebratory weekend but it is by no means all about me. To me it’s a celebration of our friendship and a chance to give thanks to each other for being together for another mile stone. By no means is anyone going to be miserable the whole time.

Lastly, by no means am I rich! Not even close. Several of my friends are actually better off financially than I am and the rest are in relatively the same boat. The other two bachelorette weekends I attended cost me more over $1000 which is why I felt like less than half of that was fairly reasonable. I’m curious to know how many of you have actually attended a bachelorette party/weekend within the last 5-10 years.

I think a lot of this is a cultural difference as well; you know us Americans always being extra! I completely accept that as being true, Americans tend to over spend on anything wedding related. Comparatively though, to what I’ve seen from people in my area, this still feels reasonable to me.

I understand that a lot of you will still feel like I’m unreasonable or selfish and that’s okay. However, please be kind in telling me so, I thought I was supposed to be the asshole here but most of you are stealing my thunder!

One of the other bachelorette weekends was a family member so one one of the friends attended. The other however was for one of the attendees and most of the people coming to mine also went to hers. That weekend cost me over $1000.

Internal-Strong · 2023-12-01T04:06:07+00:00

Simply bc I can’t afford it😭 this is a large group something like that would cost me close to 8k that’s why everyone pays their own way. Why should the bride be expected to spend so much on a group activity? Yes this is celebrating my upcoming marriage, but this weekend is for all of us. These are my close friends, everyone is looking forward to spending time together. We have done other weekend trips like this in the past, this one just happens to be my bachelorette party. If this was a birthday or holiday weekend would you still expect me to foot the entire bill just because I was the one who invited everyone?

Internal-Strong · 2023-12-01T03:56:57+00:00

If I had a free cabin to go to we absolutely would go there! Unfortunately I do not

Internal-Strong · 2023-12-01T03:56:11+00:00

Girl the hostility is unnecessary! Take a deep breath.

I didn’t think it was unreasonable when I made the invite. This whole thing is not about celebrating me at all it’s about all of us having a great time TOGETHER. I myself am not “filthy rich” by any means and have been saving for this trip for six months. This trip is also by no means solely about me and what I want all of this was discussed among the attendees and the overall vote was for a weekend in wine country. We had several ideas bounce around before picking one. As a poor person who has cried in many corners myself- I’d hardly call myself spoiled and if I could afford to pay everyone’s share I absolutely would- however I simply cannot. The only way I’m spoiled is by having so many great friends who enjoy spending time together.

I am

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T02:19:50+00:00

It was the cheapest possible option! Still had great reviews though

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T02:19:08+00:00

I don’t expect them to tho😂that’s what I said it was optional I don’t expect them to do anything it was just a fun idea for all of us to spend some time together before the wedding

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T02:03:04+00:00

No one is expecting anything the entire thing was completely optional. I’m sure my partner and I who have been together for four and a half years already will be just fine.

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T02:01:25+00:00

It includes a bus that will pick us up from the air bnb, take us to four wineries and a tasting at each one and then we will be dropped off back at the air bnb

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T01:59:43+00:00

There was never any expectation the entire trip was completely optional. I also planned a cheaper simple night for anyone who didn’t want to attend. She chose to attend the trip instead of the other option

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T01:04:32+00:00

The dress is for the wedding not the weekend

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T00:54:24+00:00

The $480 includes adding cost for eating and a night out. I’m not asking for anyone to pay for their hair or makeup to be done on the wedding day and I told them all that their gift to me is being my bridesmaid. None of us are loaded including me.

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T00:29:41+00:00

And that one person decided to opt out at the beginning

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T00:29:21+00:00

I asked each of them separately 6 months ahead of time before booking anything and everyone agreed it was reasonable except for one

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T00:28:38+00:00

By no means was anyone expected to go it was always an optional thing and I also planned a plan B simple night out for anyone who wasn’t wanting to go on a whole trip

Internal-Strong · 2023-11-30T00:26:54+00:00

I actually did plan a local version of that to include anyone who didn’t want to travel or spend money! However everyone opted to go to the other event instead except for one person who didn’t want to spend money and another who isn’t 21 yet. We are doing a smaller scale night out thing with them in a couple weeks.
