So some of you who have been on here a while back, may remember me posting about my Bridal shower, and my Step Mom planning one for my side of the family, smaller venue more intimate etc.
Giving a little bit of a background: We booked the venue back in September of last year, just because it is still in "peak" season, we wanted a specific room. Up until May, no one from my FH's side has said anything about having a shower. So when they finally asked I let them know my Step Mom has started planning it and they offered to help, and everything was fine. Then in June there were several calls to my FH about this shower, and how FMIL was never approached, my step mom did this the wrong way, FMIL would have loved to do a joint shower, how can we only invite immediate family and exclude others from the shower, and much more. I explained to my FH that this is not my place to plan this, I wanted something little (Shower would be almost 100 people with both families), and because it is the Sunday before our Friday wedding, many people would think it is too close to the wedding. We asked the venue how many people we could fit, if there was anything else open and tried to accommodate everyone into one shower, but everything was booked.
Long story short, FMIL has booked a shower the weekend before my families shower, and there has been no talk of any wedding stuff since. This could be a good thing because I am not supposed to be planning anything surrounding a shower, but I just feel off about it.
Just really needed to rant, unsure what to do so I have kept quiet about any wedding things that are going on. Has anyone else encountered some drama when it comes to showers! Needing some guidance. Am I reading too far into it? Should I just let them plan it and show up!
