Underage Maid Of Honor

I`m getting married in May 2002.
Here`s the problem. Everyone in the wedding party is over 21 years,,,except my best friend/sister (my maid of honor), who is 20 years old. We all want to do the bar hopping thing,,,but I want my maid of honor to be able to get into the bars. Anyone have any advice?!

My advice is to skip the bar hopping. You want to be responsible towards your sister and getting her and yourself in potential trouble is not worth the fun you think you`ll have.

If the other bridesmaids want to go bar hopping with you, choose another night that`s not `the` night for you all to celebrate. Instead, for the entire party, make it an informal girls` night (or weekend! a good friend of mine went in with the bridal party on renting a house of in the woods for the weekend) and relax with a couple of bottles of wine, which your sister could have in some moderation with all of you and you won`t be out on the roads after drinking.

I`m sure your sister will understand that you want to be responsible to her and when she does turn 21, you can take her out on the town.
