So here is the broken record again. My sister has found something else to be unhappy about. Actually, unbeknownst to me, a lot of things.
My aunt offerred to host my shower at her house, and my MOH asked how I felt about it. I told her I was fine with that, or with a hall, the choice would be up to her and my sisters who are my bridesmaids. MOH told me about two weeks ago that one sister told her to go ahead and book a hall, and a few days later the same sister and I were talking, and she told me that she wanted to book a hall for the shower.
That very same day, MOH called me and told me that my sister changed her mind and wanted to have it at someone's house, saying that my aunt's feelings were hurt that they didn't take her up on her offer. Then, my sister offerred her own apartment... how is that any better than going with a hall if my aunt's feelings were supposedly hurt?
So, today MOH called me and told me that my sister left her a voice mail saying that my family is really upset and my aunt feels really badly that they aren't using her house, and the shower should really be moved to the house. Now, I know, I know this is because my sister wants to do this as cheaply as possible.
So, I called another aunt to get the rest of the story, and see if anyone was truly upset, even though I really didn't think so. She said, no, everyone is fine, no hard feelings at all. She goes on to tell me that my sister has been talking to her and telling her that I am making her have her hair done, that I wanted to make her have her makeup done, and I am telling her which shoes to buy. Um... seriously??? You weren't planning on having your hair done up for my wedding? Be real. And the makeup? I simply offerred to make an appointment for her if she chose to have someone do her makeup. When she told me no, she would do her own, I told her that was fine. And the shoes? Honestly, you are mad that the bride is asking you to buy silver shoes, no other guidelines?
Like I told the girls on my club board, I need to take names of everyone who has read about these episodes my sisters keep having. I owe you all an ice cream! Thank you for letting me vent...
