Bridal Shower Dilemma

So I know it's normal to do a bridal shower, it's so everyone can get together before the wedding and things like that. I get it and I am for it BUT I don't think I want to have one anymore. I am getting married June 2020, and nobody in my wedding party has even muttered words about a bridal party. When I mentioned it they never keep anything going with it. When I said I was going to start looking at some venues they were all like "Oh no you shouldn't be doing anything with it" but then they never do anything for it either. One of my bridesmaids, which is my fiances sister, doesn't want to pay anything for bridal shower or bachorlette party. So it has been seeming like more of an anxiety filled situation for me and it's not even something that I remotely want to be apart of anymore. Sorry, I just needed to rant but does anyone have any advice? I would really like to not have to plan it myself because when I had to plan my own baby shower, everyone got angry with me but nobody wanted to help with it when I asked for help. So just really struggling here.

I'm sorry you're going through that. I may be way off but sometimes bridal showers are a surprise...so you never know.

It’s still a whiles away to plan. My friends wedding is sept and we are hosting her shower in aug and all we did was come up with a theme and a date and the rest we weren’t gonna plan til later or we were gonna gradually plan. They’ve got time to figure something out for you.

If someone wants to host a shower for you, they will offer. If not, you don’t have one.

It maybe a surprise that they are currently working on and of course they wouldn't want you to know

I agree with PP. Sounds like they may be trying to surprise you. Maybe wait it out a bit. You still have time.

I would say that they are trying to surprise you, but from what happened with the baby shower, I personally wouldn't get my hopes up. If they want to throw one for you they will, but if you don't really want one or if you don't care either way, I would just not bring it up again and let them bring it up if it is something they want to do. I wouldn't stress yourself about trying to plan one.
