[quote=Anonymous]I'm a bridesmaid in her upcoming wedding. Only asked to be in wedding because of family connection, while she is very sweet and I like her, we are very different and I don't really know her that well.

Bachelorette party would be a great way to get to know her more, BUT - it's a full weekend affair, a six-hour drive away (or four hours total to get to airport, wait for flight, fly, get to locale from airport for about $400). I'd have to take the Friday off work and not get back home until the Sunday evening. There's no way to cut it down and only go for a day, not worth the travel time hassle (and not worth not drinking so I could drive back early!).

I work full time, and will be away from home traveling for work a bit in the weeks near this party. Plus I don't ever get to spend as much time as I'd like with my 2-y.o. DS (who would stay with my fully capable but probably a little miffed DH if I went).

I don't really know anyone else going to the party, I've met a few of the other ladies but that's about it. Just one of the others has kids. If it was closer I'd totally be there (okay, I'd still probably only go for part of it).

Would you skip it? Would you go? Thanks![/quote]
