A not so close family friend told the gal throwing my shower that she wanted to co-host my bridal shower. She wasn't going to be invited to the wedding because we weren't going to invite anyone from that particular circle, which is more my parents' circle than mine. So inviting her would not only risk our relationship with all the people from that circle who won't be invited, I barely know the woman and don't really like what I do know. The wedding is still a ways off, so nothing is set in stone. Does anyone have any ideas for how we can say, "thanks but no thanks" without making things really awkward every time my family finds ourselves in the same room with her?
