Bridal shower drama.

Rosalie, on December 8, 2022 at 2:43 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 9

Ugh. I stupidly invited two of my older sister's friends to my bridal shower which is in two days. Unfortunately, Jenna (sister) forgot to fill me in that they hate each other a lot and will probably tear each other apart. I'm confused about etiquette on this one. I obviously do not want drama at my bridal shower, but should I disinvite one of them or both of them. Or do I not disinvite either of them and then deal with some sort of argument at my shower. What would you do?

    No. They have already been invited so you cannot revoke that. It is rude to do so. They can choose to leave once they see the other or behave like adults.

    What kind of grown adults can't save face for 2 hours? If they do argue I'd give them one warning that if they can't behave they will both be uninvited. If they make it to the wedding, make sure their tables aren't together. 😂

    They're both grown adults attending an event in someone else's honor. They should be able to either behave or leave on their own. Since they're your sister's friends, ask her to run interference between them if things start to get out of hand.

    Ok, so I may have left out an important detail. One of them is going through an awful divorce and the other one is the reason for that divorce. It is not some petty fight over some stupid reason.

    Oh. Well that changes things in my mind. If there was a huge betrayal of some sort that’s tough. I would still stay out of it though. Just hope for the best I guess, and maybe talk to a close family member about your concerns and see if they can kind of keep an eye on things.

    That is an entirely different situation. Do you have a relationship with these women and are they both invited to your wedding? If the answer to either is no, then they should not be invited. But also be aware that uninviting them will cause a permanent rift between you.

    They are both invited to my wedding, unfortunately. I do not have a relationship with these women, but Jenna (sister) quite enjoys them and I never realized any rift existed between them. Jenna mostly has good friends and she wanted to bring them, so I just said ok. I already sent out invites unfortunately. I randomly got alerted by my forgetful sister that they hate each other.

    It is sister’s responsibility to resolve the issue between them. If you don’t have a relationship with them, it’s unlikely they will attend. Best of luck!

    Since your sister has the relationship with them, maybe she can shoot them both a text warning them that the other one will be there. Then maybe they’ll decide on their own that they don’t feel comfortable attending the shower.
