Hi. My bfs hen do is next month and the cost of it seems to be growing arms and legs. Especially down to the fact that I'm also a bridesmaid. My bf doesn't know about it as she's not part of the planning it's a surprise. She would be very unhappy about the costs I can assure you. The bridesmaids have had to pay for people who have pulled out to cover the cost of the house for the weekend. Now the other bridesmaids are demanding another £40pp for alcohol and food. I'm happy to pay £20 for food costs but they all know I'm pregnant and will not be drinking but are still expecting me to pay for alcohol.. aibu to refuse? I've also refused to pay for a mini bus as I will not be on it. I live 20 mins away from where the house is so I'm driving down on my own. If I were to get the mini bus I would have to drive 45mins in the opposite direction to leave my car then spend over an hour on the bus (which the brides not even going to be on as she's going in the car with her mum) I'm just getting really ticked off at the whole thing!!

mars bar cake is rice krispies bound with melted mars bar with melted milk chocolate on the top so it goes hard

No syrup, just melted mars bars? Sounds great

My DP is teetotal and I do not expect him to pay for any wine I consume on an evening out, so the BM was right to step in.

Mind you, I'm the sort of person who would tip my money's worth down the sink if they insisted I pay for it and I couldn't drink it. But then again, I'm a stubborn cow!
