So I work with one of my best friends/BM. My sister (and MOH) recently sent out the invites for my bachelorette party and her and I were discussing it because my sister is insane (in a great way) and putting so much (unnecessary) effort into this.... for real, I will just be happy to see her in person.
BUT... a co-worker overheard and threw some mad shade my way because my bachelorette party is at the end of August, my shower is in October and our wedding is in January.
I attempted to explain that; the bachelorette party is at the end of August because it is the 1 weekend off from grad school that I have, my sister lives 3000 miles away, owns her own business and August is a slow month for her so she is able to make the trip..and it just seemed nicer to do it with nice weather and not snow.
Same with the shower, the girls picked that day to make sure it didn't overlap with major holidays.
