Bridal Shower Nightmare

I am having my shower on Saturday and last night had a nightmare about it.  Not really sure of the particulars, but it did involve pasta sauce all over my pretty dress.

I'm getting a little antsy about it. I don't know if my grandma is going to show up - around Christmas she unceremoniously removed my picture from the grandkids picture table and when I pointed it out to her, she was "shocked" by me being missing. I think she is pissed that FI and I are "living in sin" and that we are not getting married in a church, much less the Catholic church. Last I heard she hadn't RSVP'd, and even if she did, she probably would claim to be sick like she did for my sister's baby shower anyways. My godmother also isn't coming. It's not that big of a deal, I don't care that much if they hate me for not conforming to their ridiculous religious standards, but it still sucks.

I'll be surprised if they show up for the wedding.

  • Fortune favors the prepared. Wear a poncho. Then, even if shit gets wild, you will be ahead of the game!

    On a serious note, I am very sorry that your grandma is being a ween about your situation. I wish you all the best!

  • I often have dreams about spilling stuff all over my pretty clothes. But I'm also a klutz, so it's often an accurate predictor.

    I'm sorry about your grandmother and godmother. That's terrible behaviour on their part, and they should be ashamed.

    I'm gonna go with 'not my circus, not my monkeys.'
  • I'm so afraid I'm going to spill red wine on my dress. No pinot noir for me that night.

  • :(  I hope everything at the shower goes well and I'm sorry some family members are so narrow minded. I hope you can relax and enjoy the shower with people who actually support you and your FI.

    My shower is also Saturday and my FMIL says she's coming. She recently told FI that she removed him from her will (he's her only child so I have NO idea what she did) and told him she's in therapy to help her get over him as if he had died. All this stems from last summer when she learned we would not be inviting her friends to our wedding. And she's coming to the shower. I'm terrified. 

    I see lots of drinking in our futures.

  • try not to let them get you down and just keep thinking of all the people who do support you and are happy to celebrate with you!  You did nothing wrong, so they look like the foolish ones. You cannot please everyone. It sucks it is your grandmother, but end of the day it is her choice to act that way and does not reflect poorly on you
