As a little backstory as to why i'm uncomfortable about this, I have never really been to any bridal showers except one. Maybe the one I went to was just really tacky, but the whole thing felt money hungry, like a "gimme gimme gimme! OMG gimme stuff!" party and it really turned me off to them. So I started this whole thing off feeling really leery about it.
Anyway, one of my BM's came up to me and asked me if I wanted to have a bridal shower, and if so then who would I invite. I said I don't know, and just to humor her at least, sat down and wrote out a list of people i'd invite to such a thing. 2/3 of them are out of town and wouldn't be able to come, including everyone in from my side of the family. I've also talked to my MOH and she can't come to it, as well as one of my bridesmaids, who is too far away and is requiring my help to come to the wedding as is, let alone any showers. So I basically have only half of my bridesmaids, and about 5 or 6 other people that are on my FI's side of the family and may or may not come anyway. What am I supposed to tell my BM who wants to try and throw this? (BTW, I think I forgot to mention, the tacky bridal shower I went to, was thrown and hosted by the two bridesmaids that are actually able to be there and want to throw this one. Eep.)
