Pregnant women contribute same £ to hen do

Advice appreciated!
I'm planning a hen do in February and I have two pregnant women joining. I'm working out the budget and a substantial amount of the supermarket order is going to be booze 🍸
I've been thinking I should try and work out a way for the pregnant ladies not to pay as much as they won't be drinking.
What do you think? Would you expect to pay less or the same as everyone else if you were pregnant

Just split the booze between the people that will be drinking, I don’t think it will complicated at all?

Just deduct the alcohol cost from the food cost and split that between the drinkers and add on the food cost for each person. I wouldn't be charging pregnant women the cost of alcohol. Does everyone else drink though?

Yes but everyone non pregnant is a booze hound 😂

Also this should apply to all non drinkers, not just pregnant people.

Yes they should pay less.

Split the food & non alcoholic drinks 10 ways.

Split the alcohol 7 ways.

Or whatever numbers work.

I think it would be nice to offer that if you could, but I wouldn't particularly expect it.
