How do you handle payments for a bachelorette party? I’m responsible for planning one for about 10 girls and don’t know any but the bride. Is it okay to politely let them know I won’t be booking an Airbnb until they send their share? I’ve been stuck with some refusing to pay before and just want to avoid being on the hook for an expensive weekend

Can you set a deadline? Something like “I’ll be booking the Airbnb on 2/10. If you’d like to stay in the Airbnb, please Venmo me XX amount by no later than 2/9. Otherwise, we will assume you won’t be staying in the Airbnb. Feel free to message me privately if you have any concerns. Thanks!”

^ this, and it’s totally okay to wait to book.

You should let people know the cost, collect RSVPs, book a refundable reservation, then collect the money prior to the stay.
