So my mum has said that she wants to plan my hen weekend but completely somewhere I do not want to go! My best friend has also said that she is planning my hen weekend and knows exactly what I want and where to go:) they both think they planning it but how do I tell my mum in a nice way without her getting the ump which I know she will!
Tell your mum that it what your MOH is for. Also could try saying you've chosen your MOH to plan it as she knows exactly what you want. Surely your mum wants you to get what you want... good luck! Xx
It's Ur MOH job. Just tell her that lol.
My mum's planning an engagement party instead with most of my family and friends, and my fiancé immediate family...then my friends are running the hen do without my mum feeling left out
Have both
Tell your mum your friend wants to do it and get them to plan it together? So your mum feels like she’s accommodating your friend and you get what you want 🙂 x
You can't please everyone I've got people complaining already and there's 4 months to go
If finances allow why not have both. I had a respectable one for aunties and "grown ups" and the MOH one is the fun one with all the cheeky antics x
I would say tell her your MOH is organising but ask her to organise something for the two of you and maybe for example sister/sis in law/MOH, mum of groom etc xx
Could your mum do you a bridal shower at a separate event ? X
I will be having 2 Hen do’s, one that is mum-friendly, and then a messy weekend away with my girls, who says you only need to have 1? 😊
Could your mum do you a bridal shower at a separate event ? X
Cant you have both like others have said? One for your friends and one for your older female relatives?
Pretend you’re not having one to your mum?!
couldn't u get the two of them to team up plan it together
Couldn’t you get your MOH to speak to your mum and say oh by they way this is my idea for your hen and would she like to help plan it that way your mum is still involved and you get what you want xx
If you can afford it, have two. I know my mum wouldn't want to be doing what my friends would want to.
Like this: open your mouth, say the words and make sure she has listened...done!
This is hard, I am not sure it would be a good idea to get them to do it together as they will want to do different things. If your MOH knows what you want you just need to be honest with your mother. Perhaps do something with your mom and a few other people separately?
Set boundaries early - she will appreciate it in the long run (after a bit of a sulk)
