Bridal shower drama

Sal, on July 23, 2019 at 5:39 AM Posted in Parties and Events 0 5
So my sisters and my MOH are throwing me a bridal shower this saturday. They have been planning for months and the invitations went out weeks ago. Just found out this week and future sister and mother in law have been pissed and talking crap about my family for weeks because they weren't included in the planning. (They told my FH about it just this week) I am in no way shape or form involved in planning the shower but somehow this just became my fault that they werent included. I dont think they understand that traditionally it is the brides side that throws the shower. Anyway Im sick about this and really now looking forward to this weekend anymore....thanks for listening

    If they wanted to help with planning they could have offered. This isn’t your fault and shouldn’t even be an issue. Don’t let it bother you too much, they’ll get over it.

    I agree with PP, don't let it get to you and just enjoy your shower. I know it's kind of a bad sign for your relationship with them but it could also just be an incident that's a misunderstanding like hey I wasn't involved in this and id love for you to partake in other wedding related things next time

    This day is about you, not them. I wouldn't let it get to you. They could have made more of an effort if that really mattered to them.

    I agree it's not your fault! Your MIL could've offered. I know my MIL contacted my mom. I don't know how involved she is but I am sure she's helping in some way and will help set up. They can plan the rehearsal dinner if they are so upset. My MIL is already on that. Like you said it's usually the shower is bride's side and rehearsal groom's side to plan. Don't stress this. That isn't your fault when it's a party thrown for you and you didn't have involvement in the process.

    Don't let it get to you, this isn't your problem at all! If they're going to complain about not being involved, then they can just throw you a second shower for your FH's side of the family.
