People are so freaking dumb You just have to laugh sometimes - don't worry someone will tell you the date - it is inevitable

I KNOW!!! Well I know its in August because my stupid sister told me that yesterday by accident She was telling me how my niece met some kid (they live in Florida) but that he will be in New York for the entire summer and shes really bummed about it. So she says that she told my niece 'Dont worry, we will be in NY in August and then in September' so I go 'UMMM WHY AUGUST!??!? ' and then complete silence. So I go 'ummm hello anyone there'??? She goes 'we have been checking flights... obviously if your wedding is in September your shower will be the month before' then proceeds to dig herself deeper into her hole by saying 'You know Diana, money is tight all around and we might not even have a shower for you' Ok so why are you looking at airfares?? She goes 'can you just pretend we didnt have this conversation?'

I feel your pain. My shower surprise was blown in a similar situation but hey told me the date! What the heck, aren't you supposed to assume that all showers are a surprise??

I dont mind knowing, I mean its obviously going to be one of the weekends in August. I just wish I knew when because I would get to spend more time with my sister and niece that are coming up from Florida. If its on a Sunday and they come up Friday night, I would be able to spend more time with them But at the same time, I know they are trying to keep it a secret so I am not even going to tell them about my cousin

people are dumb.. but at least they didn't tell dates. You knew you were having one, You just didn't know when, and you still don't.. So.. don't let that stress you!!! It'll still be a surprise to ya!!

I had a similar situation this weekend at a friends house where she had my invitation out (I DIDN't see it). I found out that my invitation deosn't say surprise on it but other people said you (guests) should assume its a surprise.

The day of my shower one of my friends called me from her cell phone because she was on the way out to my sister's house (she's from brooklyn, my sister is in rocky point) and was lost, and felt stupid calling my sister so wanted me to help her getting there. I ended up meeting her in Farmingdale, leaving her car there, and driving her to my own shower!

My MOH lives in Chicago and grew up in Indiana, and has NEVER heard of a surprise shower and had a reallt hard time grasping the concept. It may just be a regional thing - who knows!

Re: Whats wrong with people?!?!?!?!
My FI actually blew the surprise for me, but it wasn't his fault. Since my MOH didn't know about surprise showers we decided that I would just know about it. then my mom wasnt happy about that so they decided to make it a surprise.
So then one day out pf the blue, my MOH called and told me it was on 7/16. I immediately called my FI to tell him that I think she screwed up by telling me, and then he asked me when it was, so I said 7/16 and he goes, wait a minute, it's not the 16th - and then he got really quiet. The dumbasses never told him that they were giving me the wrong date!!!
