How to play this

[BakerLea]

Potential hen night issue with a friend in my social circle. She is a nightmare when drunk: rude, starts fights, attention seeking. Thinking about planning my hen night and I'm not sure how to play it with this situation.

On the one hand I would worry about her going and in an ideal world she would not be going, on the other I don't want to obviously leave someone out who would expect to be there and who I have been close to over the past few years-not so much in the last year. She is in my circle of friends and is someone who I do see alot through our social circle/kids etc
Has anyone dealt with similar?

I didn’t invite a friend to my wedding for a similar reason. When she asked why she wasn’t invited, I told her truthfully. I’m sure it was upsetting for her to hear, but ultimately I hope that she took it on board and will try to address her drinking and get herself to a better place: because the reality of it is, as I said to her, that her behaviour has begun to make a lot of our friends feel the same way about inviting her to parties and events.

Hard one. I had a friend like this and she ruined many a night for me. We are no longer friends but the only night I think she did not totally ruin (bar shagging my brother) was my own wedding night.
