I received an evite from the bride's MOH for a bachelorette party, which I attended two nights ago. (BTW I am not in the wedding party) It said they were planning on "buying" out several tables so we wouldn't have to wait in line at the club. It didn't say anything about cost. I was planning on seeing what happened during the course of the night would contribute when the bill came. It just never came up and I didn't say anything that night. I'd like to do the right thing and am happy to chip in. What is proper? Also, what should I say to MOH if it is right for me to pay?

Dear Gina,
Since you were invited but not a part of the hosting attendants, I would assume that you would only be responsible for your own consumption. However. rather than have it become an uncomfortable situation needlessly, ask the MOH if there was any additional fee.

Dear Paying Guest,
These are the only parties (that I can think of) where the guests pay. So, it would be best to ask the MOH what your share of the evening's costs are. Maybe she covered the entire evening. If so, wow! That is nice. In that case you may want to send her a card.
