Bachelorette parties are popular get-togethers in the English-speaking world. Versions of all-female gatherings have existed for ages, but they became particularly popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The bachelorette party as we now know it did not become known until the 1960s, and it was still uncommon then. There was a resurgence in the late 1990s, perhaps because the future bride and her friends relished the chance to have bachelorette party games.

Professional party planners have stated that people are spending anywhere from $10,000-$100,000 (and more) on a bar mitzvah (or bat mitzvah). I’ve even heard tales where some bar mitzvahs organizers have flown in top name entertainers. That alone could cost in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. And I’ve also heard firsthand, via a florist colleague, that some planners have spent over $50,000 on florals alone.

An Eco-friendly wedding is where by way of the wedding planning, the bridal couple attempts to reduce the effect and impression their wedding has on the earth.
