My two cousins (unfortunately) booked their wedding dates within a month before mine!! one cousin the first week in April and the 2nd cousin the 2nd week in April (The second week in April is my 1st cousin!!!!, what a moron, I am still mad thinkin about it).. I booked before the both of them!!!!! months before them.. Anyways, should I book my shower as early as Feb? or ask them so it dosent interfere.. I feel like they didnt even bother askin me, so why should I? but i just dont want to stress having out showers back to back, like our weddings!!! sorry for the long vent...... I appreciate all your valuable feedback ladies!!!

Re: shower question...
that stinks! i would probably have the shower in february if i were you. that is a lot of events to attend for family members so it would probably be better for your shower to be before their weddings so it does not affect you as much!

Re: shower question...
OY! I'm sorry that they did that! And not asking just makes it worse. I would say have your shower in February and make sure that the moms/bridal party (whoever is throwing it) communicate so they don't double book. While it's not cousins OR as close I got engaged first with my girlfriends (they are 2 of my bridesmaids). Then one of them got engaged in March. She asked me if it was ok if she could have her wedding in the spring 2010 (a couple months before mine). so she's having it in June 2010. No big deal and I couldn't be happier for her! THEN, my friend got engaged in May (she was engaged once before but it ended up getting broken off last October 2008). So she got engaged to someone else and without asking either one of us schedules her wedding in April 2010. Now, I'm happy for my friend as I'm sure you are happy for your cousins, BUT I know how you feel about not being asked. But the damage is done and if you mention it to them, the family will end up knowing and then who really wants that during this happy time! Have the bridal shower before theirs and try to enjoy everything! It's hard but honestly, there are more important things about your wedding to worry about, let your cousins worry about that fact that everyone is more excited about your wedding because it'll be GREAT weather and a GREAT time!
