     Bachelorette Financing  

I was invited to a friend's wedding and also to the bachelorette party. I am not part of the bridal party. I RSVP'd to the bachelorette party before knowing any of the details.

The party is this Saturday, and just today, the woman in charge of it sent all of the invited a list of associated costs for this bachelorette party.

I cannot afford the costs and wrote the planner this saying I would attend the early part of the evening that would not require all of the additional expenses.

She insisted I go, without paying, and now I feel uncomfortable going or not going.

What does one do in this situation? If I had known the cost of the party, I would not have said I would attend.

How do I handle it?

Dear Roxanne,

This is a great example of why all costs should be explained on the invitation--up front. This party is the only party (besides the bachelor) that the guests pay their own way, plus a bit for the bride.

It really is your choice at this point. You could go for a part of it, all, or none.

Best wishes,
