Most of my bridesmaids are out of town. I have one who is in the same city with me. I consider her a great friend. I have been slightly disappointed with somethings. I don't know how to deal with them.
After we got engaged, we didn't celebrate at all with friends or family. I really wanted to but I was told that it is bad ettiquete to throw your own celebration. It came and went and nothing happened. I was disappointed,but I understand that some people might not be ware of such things. I also heard from my sister that my friend from in town is not planning to throw a shower for me. She says since I have one out of town there isn't a need for one here. I would really like a time to celebrate with my friends in town, especially since we haven't yet. Everyone around here assumes she is taking control of it, and I don't want to ask someone to do it. I want someone to do because they WANT to not because they HAVE to.
I really want to have a time with my friends to celebrate typical bridal stuff. What should I do? Suck it up or talk to someone about it.
