Just wondering if My Mom of the Bride Pays the whole bill? My sister is my MOH,
Is it common for FMIL to pitch in or not?
The bridal party consists of FMIL's daugher and her neice, both students who dont have much $$

Yea i just spoke to FMIL, and she goes its your thing, she doesnt want to invite anyone either, because she feels people already gave us engagement gifts.
and FH's cousin adn sister are in the my bridal party and they have ZERO interest in helping....i guess i am kinda regretting having them in it,
seems so weird - she has money but no interest in helping with your shower?? did you have an e-party? I know fh's side thought us having an e-party was weird but my family always did that. some of his aunts complained that they'd have to give us a gift for our eparty, shower, and wedding. is that how she is thinking of it?
Yup probably, if she doesnt invite all her friends, and cousins I am going to have a small crowd, probably like 15-20 people
We had an E-Party, I am also thinking of asking my FH to Help out with paying the majority of the Shower, because my mom has no money, My FH pays her cell phone as an add on to her phone, i feel bad for her, and if my FH will help out, i would be so happy
oh well if it's small you have so many options i think to keep the price down... my cousin just had her shower in her mom's house; they just ordered sandwiches and it was low key but fine - so nice

My mom lives in a 550 sq foot condo in douglaston. she has one couch and a table with 4 chairs...i wish she could have it but there is no way, its so tiny

Re: Who Pays For Bridal SHower
Is it Normal for FMIL to not want to invite anyone to the shower, She didnt even want to invite the grandmas
So it would be FMIL, FH's Aunt, THATS IT!!!
Fh's sister and cousin are in the wedding party so 4 people from FH's family?
IS THIS NORMAL????
