I posted this in chat and someone suggested I try here...
I have been invited to my friend's wedding. She is french and lives in france. Her groom is also french. I was very excited to be invited considering i haven't seen her for four years.
I didn't expect to be invited to the hen do but to my surprise, received an email about it. I don't speak any french (I can ask for anything from 1 to 50 baguettes or croisants and can say where I live but that's it) so it'll be a bit daunting going to a hen do with 20+ girls who all speak a different language but I'm up for it!
But...do you think my friend will feel as though she has to take care of me as I do not speak french? I don't want to put a dampner on things by being there and her feeling like she has to translate all the time.
Also has anyone ever been to a french hen do? What do they tend to be like (compared to your typical english hen do). Also are there any typical hen do destinations in France? I'm trying to pre-empt anywhere that we are likely to go and also the cost!
Thanks.
