Skype Shower?!...
Things I learned this weekend... there is such a thing as a skype shower....
My Mom's BFF is hosting a bridal shower for a Bride. But the Bride will not be coming to MN to attend the shower (reason: she doesn't want to travel before the wedding). Instead Mom's BFF shipped all the presents/decorations and some sweet food to the Bride in North Carolina. All the invited ladies will meet at BFFs house (will all the fixings) in MN and skype the bride in NC while she opens the gifts and play games.
Am I the only person that finds this to be a little ridiculous??

Re: Skype Shower?!...
I would be more understanding if she had a legitimate reason but she doesn't want to make 2 trips (one for wedding, one for shower) .... well then don't have a shower. They are by no means a must.
I could see situations where it could be a really good idea but this prolly isnt one of them. I do think it is strange that she just doesn't want to travel. I agree that she doesn't need a shower so this seems like a lot to do to be able to throw her one.
I could see it working for a baby shower though....when the mom shouldn't travel at that stage in pregnancy - although I still think it is a bit weird.

As far as I know the Bride will participate in the games... but I didn't ask what games or what they had planned.
Ditto PP... Weird!
My aunt and uncle were involved in selecting a new rabbi for their synagogue and actually interviewed prospective rabbis using Skype.
