I have a shower/hurricane dilemma now too
I'm hearing from guests attending the shower that I'm throwing on Sunday, that if the weather is bad they aren't coming. He!l, I don't blame them. So if you had a feeling only half of the 30 people might come, would you reschedule? Or would you forge ahead? I feel like it could be a huge waste of money if we make food for 30 people and no one shows up. Not to mention, it would be really sad for the bride, my BFF.
And then there's the wrorst-case scenario - like what if the weather IS so severe that day we don't have power or something crazy like that. I hate how weather=ohmygodfreakout but in this case, I feel like it could overall be a really crappy situation.
So I'm leaning towards rescheduling it but I wanted to get opinions. The food hasn't been made yet (bride's mom is a caterer, so that makes it easy) and I will just have to negotiate with the venue to switch it. They are just beginning to do events, so I doubt their calendar is completely full and I am only paying them a rental fee.
So if it were you - would you reschedule or forge ahead?
Re: I have a shower/hurricane dilemma now too
It looks like the weather reports are getting worse. I would prob just make the decision to reschedule. Better than going back and forth and then having to cancel anyway.
Good Luck!
Ok, good. I feel better knowing it's really the best thing to do. I don't want to put people in the position of making the decision to come. I'm hearing trees down, etc. The weather maps are freaking me out!
Well, it's a surprise. Not my idea, but the other bridesmaids insisted. So hopefully we can find out if she's free.
Hahahaha. I would try to postpone, if you can.
lol! i'm uninviting everyone.
