My FSIL's shower is turning complicated already. She is insisting that we have plenty of games and activities for her shower. Now her mother is paying for it to be at a restaurant and the bridesmaids are in charge of favors and games and activities. I seem to be the only bridesmaid who's doing anything about anything, but I don't really care.
I have favors picked out, but I need a count of how many people. We also decided to include on the invites that people should bring recipes for the bride. I sent my FI off to ask his mother how many people are invited and to ask her to include the recipe info on the invitations when she sends them. Well apparently, although their mother is paying for everything, FSIL is in charge of who's getting invited and sending the invitations. I'm sorry- isn't the bride NOT suppose to plan her own shower? Now, although she wanted all these surprises at her shower, we are going to have to tell her about it all so that she can include the recipes in the invitation. I can still just ask her how many people without telling her what the favors are, but I'm just annoyed. Suggestions?
