SO SAD (Vent)

My maid of honor and my FIL ate not getting along in the planing of the shower. both sides are bitching to me and to him. thing is i can see both sides of some subjects. it makes me so sad that this supposed happy event is going to be marred by anger and bitterness. I dont even know what to do...Just stay out of it let them work it out? I did try talking to both, I tend to side with whoever Im talking to at the time. I know they all just want the best for us. ugh!

UGH...I'm so sorry you are going through this If it were me, I know it would be hard, but I would let them work it out. Like you said this is supposed to be a happy event. And if you get involved, it may make things worse.

Hope things get better

I'm sorry about that! I have not started hearing about any arguments yet but I'm sure there will be some soon enough!

Maybe you guys could take those involved out to lunch or something and talk it over? Probably not a good idea but just a suggestion

Well, you can either sit them both down and make them talk it about. Or, have 2 showers like my sister did. Her MIL was a &itch and decided on her own to plan a shower without any input from me (the MOH) or my mom. So we threw another shower for her. She lives in penn so it was like a Penn and NY shower.

thanks girls. it seems that my sister in law feels left out because she and his family want to be involved and my MOH decided the date and keeps telling them that this and that are already handled. MY MOH's side is that she wanted to have the shower in march because the people that i work with are all going away on vacation during feb so if they have the shower in feb they wont be able to come. also my MOH was going to try to fly up my sister as a surprise and my sister cant do it in feb. turnes out my sister probably wont come anyway. It seems like they are getting so upset on the in law side, that they might wind up doing their own shower just to make a point. Its just heart breaking to me they cant work it out, and I know all this stuff I shouldnt. Thanks for letting me vent.

Just wanted to give you some hugs! let them work it out, they are the ones with the conflicts, not you.
I am finding that weddings bring out the 'best' in people.
