Bachelorette party question

[flipflopsandwine]

I'm going to a bachelorette party tonight. It's really small like 4 people including the bride. Very informal too. Bride put it together and it was only a fb invite. We are just going to some bar. No hotel before or no dinner. Am I supposed to get her something? I plan to buy her drinks and her shower is also in 2 weeks.

I'd get her something small, yes. Maybe just a $25 GC to VS or something.

You can but I don't think it is a big deal if you don't.

I'd get her awesome underwear or something.

I don't know her size so a gc is a good idea.

I wouldn't get a gift, but maybe talk to the other attendees and see if anyone has picked up a goofy tiara or some other bachelorette props or whatever they're called. That could be fun.

Bonus: A big feather boa or something to kind of "announce" that it's a bachelorette party is likely to get you some free drinks.

I don't know a single one of the other people going! Our mutual friends backed out. I feel bad for my friend!

Urgh I went to a party like this last spring and gave a bottle of champagne and cute bride undies from vs. I was only one to bring present! So I would def do the giftcard in case no one else brings anything and you can hand it to her when opportunity arises.

Gifts are not common for bachelorette parties around here, so I wouldn't get a gift, though I think in other areas it is more common. Also, if you're going to be bar crawling or if the bar doesn't have good resting spaces, keeping track of gifts may be a PITA.

I've never been to a bachelorette party where the bride to be received gifts. Usually, the guests just chip in to cover her drinks, meal, whatever.
