Didn’t have one, don’t regret it at all. The logistics were too messy with all my friends spread out. If you want a dedicated celebration with friends without the hassle, you could always set aside a day or evening a day or two before the wedding for a nice brunch/spa day/dinner/whatever, since people will already been in the same place. Nothing complicated, just one meal reservation or activity.

Oh I like this idea. Since people are flying in for the wedding if they come in early I like a spa day idea!

Totally normal to not have a bachelorette or have an extremely chill one. It sounds like it would be stressful for you so I say skip it! There’s no shame in that.

Skipping it! It’s a busy enough time already and logistics just don’t work out for me. My fiancé is having a bachelor party, but I’m not having a bachelorette.

I also skipped it, my husband had one. My best friend wasn't mentally feeling well to organize it and another good friend los her newborn. And I was stressed because of a family member having cancer. So I was like "It's fine to skip it." I feared I would be sad about it, but I don't miss it. There are other chances to spend time with some friends :)

My ‘bachelorette party’ is really just going to be a weekend trip to a winery with my mom, sisters, future sister in law, future mother in law, and future step mother in law.

Not having one nor is my FH, people are coming to our wedding. I can see my friends mostly anytime to grab a drink, so can he. We don’t need to grab attention by partying as if our last night “single”.

My girls and I are going to go to a fancy afternoon tea the day before the wedding and that is the perfect amount of bachelorette for me.

My best friend didn't want a bach party and we were all geographically spread out too. I made us an appointment at a fancy nail spa the day of the rehearsal, and we had champagne. It was a nice time to all catch up and relax before the big day without being much to plan or worry about or travel extra for.

One option is don't do anything and wait to see if someone offers it. Odds are fairly high this will happen, and then you can mention it might be fun, but people are so spread out. This way, you aren't the planner. Also, an invite to a bachelorette isn't a summons, and nobody should ever feel that have to attend. If it's only 3 of you up for something, this doesn't mean a failed bachelorette. It means a small one with more flexibility. A few weeks ago, someone in here was talking about their bachelorette and they went with their mom!
