So I am from PA and my FH and his family are from LI....we are getting married in PA and that is where my family is from. My mom is being generous and throwing me a shower, and my sister who is my MOH is planning it. So she was very nice and asked my FMIL what days are good for her cause she is going to book the spot...and my FMIL flipped out. She called me and told me I was selfish for wanting in PA when her friends are here...I told her I was the bride and her response was but I'm the mother of the groom!
She wants to throw me another shower here, which is nice of her, but I want 1 shower. We had 2 engagment parties and most of my friends and bridal party (who most live here) didn't come to my party in PA and my family was hurt. And i don't want to do that to my mom this time. I want 1 special shower. Plus it's only 1 hour and 45 mins away. I don't think it's that far. If people want to celebrate with me they'll find a way. I just couldn't believe she had the gall to call and yell at me for something I want. I have been soooo good. She saw the RH before I booked, she went dress shopping with me and my mom, I invited her to the GNO event at fortunoff.....I think that's pretty involved.
Sorry this is sooo long I just needed to vent...

You know I'll be there :) The drive to Rachel's last weekend was not bad at all... Everyone will absolutely drive out and make a day of it. I agree with 1 shower and it should be where you are from! I am doing mine in NJ and that wasn't even a question. Good for you to put your foot down!!

Re: Shower drama already!
Have it in PA and stick to your gunsx! 1 hour and 45 min is NOT that long. my whole family drove to CT for my baby cousins christening and no one complained! Showers are thrown by MOH and mother of bride - your mom should have this 1 thing!!
