Weekends
Planning a bachelorette weekend without the group-chat chaos
Settle dates and money before anyone books anything. They’re what group chats end up arguing about.
Agree on dates and a budget first
- Send two or three date options and let everyone vote. Book nothing until most of the group can make one.
- Share an honest per-person estimate (house, food, one activity) before people commit.
Collect money once
- Ask for the house and shared costs up front, as one amount, by one date.
- Track who has paid in one place, so nobody has to scroll back through the chat.
Plan one big thing a day
- One planned activity per day (a dinner, a class, a boat) and free time around it keeps everyone happy.
- Ask the bride what she’d skip. It’s her weekend.
Send a simple get-ready note
- The address, parking, what to pack and the dress code for the big night, all in one place a few days before.
