Not excited for my bridal shower & i want to cancel asap….

Hey everyone,


Bride-to-be here. My wedding is next month (March 26th, 2022). Long story short, my fiancé & I previously postponed our wedding twice due to Covid. Plus, for months I have made it clear to both sides of my family that I absolutely do not want a bridal shower but having a small bridal luncheon (that is next Saturday, Feb. 26th. It is located a few miles from the town that I grew up in & is two hours away from where I reside now). For the past few weeks, my anxiety has become a lot more worse & I am wanting to cancel the luncheon because honestly, my fiancé & I (especially myself) are sick & tired of constantly driving back & forth 2 hours per trip (which we have been doing about three weekends a month) not to mention, putting miles on our vehicle. My side of the family never really comes to visit us. I’m just very burnt out being a full-time college student & I work full-time, but having my own bridal shower was never important to me. How can I explain to everyone that I would like to cancel this in a professional way without sounding like a selfish jerk? I do appreciate their support, but I feel like I am being forced into this, & quite honestly, my wedding is way more important to me than a bridal shower/luncheon. (It’s very small anyways, & only 23 women are invited.) I’ve been dreading this for months & I would like to cancel this asap. My fiancé is indifferent he just wants me to be happy no matter what decision I make. Thank you all… 😔
