bridal shower sadness

well i have been sooooooo good regarding my shower and registry..no peeking or lurking AT ALL!!

well first of all FH told me on 8-27 we have his uncles surprise 55th party and i need to get off work...the 2 girls im close with at work have bogus excuses why they cant cover for me..and the other girl though said she would
well i was always suspicious of this date but was hesitant to think too hard.

well my moms biatch sister is protesting my shower and wedding and well wont attend ANYTHING that i will be at or am related to because we arent having kids at our wedding...well she tells her daughter that 'nickie and rob dont want you at their wedding? WHATEVER..i dont get along with her and it saves me stress of having to be fake and deal with her.......so i overheard my mom complainig to FH about her and i heard my mom say 'well she told me that she couldnt come anymore because it was her anniversary..but then mom (my grandma) said the real reason' so now i KNOW that the 27th is my shower...b/c thats their anniversary..and i was annoyed when assuming this b.c i knew she would make a big deal that my shower was on her anniversary.
well it gets better...not only do i know the date..i knwo the whole secret theme.....my moms cat knocked over a big box in my moms room and i went to pick it up and its all luau stuff (oh and my aunt shower was a luau too...so thank GOD she wont be there..i REALLY would never hear the end of it)
so my shower then is in 2 weeks and well 3 things are off the registry!!

2 bathroom accessories that i was going on there to delete and a microwave

and the only reason i went on this is because my aunt said i had 3 bed sets on there (FH was supposed to delete 2 of them) and i had something else she bought me for christmas on there...so i had to delete it.. so now i saw and NOTHING IS GONE

ok im being prissy..i just have a full head of stress

1st dont worry about no gifts being gone off of your registry because people WILL buy them last minute. Also, forget about your aunt. She seems REALLY immature. One less person too worry about and the way she sounds she would just cause more trouble.

I sorry you know your shower date. That does kinda stink, but just think.... you are going to walk into a place where everyone is there for YOU. They all love you and Im telling you - you will feel it

My Aunt didn't come to my shower & has been po-d for the last 1 1/2 years b/c I'm not having her daughter in my bridal party either. Sometimes people really need to get over themselves...

Don't worry. I felt that things really started to fly off the last 2 weeks before my shower.

Don't worry I knew my shower date too because I help my Mom pick out the place because my BM and MOh are such slackers I half way planned it.

So don't worry it will still be lovely and you'll still have a few surprises. And as for your Aunt don't worry about pepople just don't understand what goes into planning a wedding and the stress. We are not having kids at our wedding either and some of my family are saying stuff too.

DT, don't let others get you down.

You'll have a lovely shower. People don’t shop until the week of or even the DAY of!

Re: bridal shower sadness

I am so sorry you know your shower date and that she is the cause. I was an OTT bride and knew my date and believe me, it did not take away from it at all. Even knowing the theme, you have no idea all the special touches or what they have planned. I was so shocked by all the things my MOH(sister) did for me and even if knew the theme, I would have been shocked. So hang in there but HAVE A BLAST! I loved my shower more than any other wedding event. It was definatley my favorite other than the wedding itself.

I can relate, I'm having aunt issues myself...and this is going on two years! I have a feeling she won't show up at my wedding, that's how bad my situation is!!
