Yeah, I agree. For the bachelor/bachelorette party the "host" is really more the organizer than truly the host. -- nm - pmb Feb 25, 12:17
Then those people should be in on the planning. If the first they hear about the party is receiving an invite and an invoice for their share, then - TWuG Feb 25, 12:17 12
- that's kind of extreme. -- nm - loosilu Feb 25, 12:28
- Who'd ever do this? - Will Hunting Feb 25, 12:26 2
  - Because the share would change depending on how many attended. If 5 people are invited and 1 can't come then the others' share jumps - TWuG Feb 25, 12:29 1
    - Yeah....I just don't think for something like bachel-parties...that this is an unexpected situation - Will Hunting Feb 25, 12:33
- so if you were coordinating the bachelor party you would pay for all the lapdances? - decline Feb 25, 12:20 5
  - If I was the host for a bachelor party I'd be looking for co-hosts and would cover the cost of a stripper or the cover for a strip club. - TWuG Feb 25, 12:27 4
    - you're a pretty generous exception then. i've literally never attended or heard of attending a bachelor party like this. -- nm - TFox Feb 25, 12:28 3
      - Yeah, I do tend to be generous, but I also like to be in on the planning when it's my money being spent. - TWuG Feb 25, 12:35
      - I haven't attended a bachelorette party like this. -- nm - loosilu Feb 25, 12:29
      - yeah, me neither. -- nm - decline Feb 25, 12:29
- well, or they have the right to not go. (bachelor/ette party planning is an effing headache whenever travel is involved.) -- nm - TFox Feb 25, 12:19
- That seems somewhat reasonable, if occasionally not feasible. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 25, 12:18
