My MOH just called me and said she will not be able to afford throwing both a shower and a bach. party. She has been looking forward to the bach. party since I asked her to be MOH.

My MOH just called me and said she will not be able to afford throwing both a shower and a bach. party. She has been looking forward to the bach. party since I asked her to be MOH.

She said she will still do the party but will not be able to afford the shower, which I understand (she is working full time and going to nursing school).

She asked if my mom would be willing to do it. I told her that i would talk to her. Well my mom is pissed. She says my MOH should be throwing it and there should be no further discussion. My mom doesn't even want to talk about the subject anymore (she is immature and if she doesn't agree with something she ignores it)

I have no problem throwing the shower myself but my mom says I should make her do it. But I really have no problem doing it.

I don't know what to do and if I do plan it myself, how do I start (I have never been to one)

Any suggestions?

    Times have changed and things are done A LOT different than they used to. I'm glad your mom had a change of heart and has some help to do it. Sounds like it will be fun. Don't worry about people's "perception", just do what you would like and enjoy. My MOH is recently divorced and is paying for her dress and planning the bach party. We haven't discussed a bridal shower, but I DO NOT want her to have to pay for it anyway. She's got bills and 2 sons to take care of. We can't expect too much out of our wedding party unless you made your expectations clear when you asked them to be in it. That was nice of you to want to pay for it and to be understanding.
