Help me out please
My sister is getting married in August. We want to have her bridal shower in June. My cousin is getting married June 27th.
It is rude to have my sister's bridal shower in June since it's the month my cousin is getting married? I say no. My gram told my mom we should NOT have my sister's bridal shower in June because of my cousin getting married that month. It just seems very silly to me. What, she gets the whole month of June because that's her wedding month? We would have the shower either the 13th or the 20th.
WDYT?
Re: Help me out please
I think you are fine. I hate when stuff like this comes up, as long as it is not the same day ? who cares? With extended families you cannot expect dates and events not to be close. My cousin got married two weeks before me and they called to ask me if I minded since my date was already planned. Of course I was fine with it and my mom and aunt just worked it out so the bridal showers and wedding events didn?t happen the same days. This same cousin?s wedding also landed on my sister?s 21st birthday, we just went out to celebrate the night before when it hit midnight.
I don't think that it's rude. It sounds like my SIL who was mad at us because we decided to get married 3 weeks after she graduated from college. (She graduated May 19 and our wedding was June 2, she claims we were stealing her thunder - uh, whatever.)
I agree, maybe try to have it as far away as the wedding as possible, I think that the 13th would be just fine.
I agree with the pps. I think having it in June is fine. I'd try for earlier in June than later as was already mentioned. Obviously the shower needs to be before your sister's wedding, but not too far in advance. And really, what is the difference in gift costs for people if you have the shower in May vs June vs July?
I'm not sure what to tell you, but I understand where you're coming from.
My family/ILs are in the same place. SIL gets married June 13, cousin is due with her first baby July 2 and I'm due July 22. The families are concerned about too many shower gifts at one time for the same guests, so they're already backing up into March or April for the first of SIL's two showers, then there will be the two baby showers.
The up side is that we'll have a very exciting spring/summer!
