Flaky MOH

My best friend/maid of honor mentioned to me a couple of months ago about wanting to host my bridal shower which was totally fine with me. She was asking me for ideas and things. She also reached out to my mom. My mom has tried reaching out to my best friend on multiple occasions about my shower since. With the holidays almost over my mom and sister/bridesmaid wanted to start looking at possible. My mom doesn't want to step on any toes by going to look at venues without my maid of honor. I have tried reaching out to my maid of honor on several occasions as well, but have not heard back. She isn't the best at communicating, but she normally does respond eventually. My mom messaged her on Facebook each time so she can see that the messages have been read. She isn't sure what the best course of act is at this point and frankly neither am I. Any advice?

Well I would suggest trying to call and text her and maybe send her a text saying hey that your mother has been trying to reach out to her and regard to the bridal shower and hasn't heard anything. If they don't hear back from her shortly then they will just move forward with plans and hope that she's able to attend. If she's not responding then to me you guys should just go forth and do what you want to do because she clearly is not showing much effort into getting this planned.

I would probably try reaching out to her via Facebook messenger (since you can tell for sure if she has received and read the message) and just express to her that you are not trying to be pushy, but yourself as well as your mother has tried to reach out to her on many occasions and she is not responding. Let her know that if you do not hear from her by a specific date you will assume she no longer wishes to have the responsibility of throwing your shower and your mother will happily take over the planning.

I agree with the PP. reach out to her and feel her out. if she ignores then i would help your mother finish everything and just send her an invitation.

I also have a flaky MOH. BUT, I have a second MOH who is by far, the most amazing MOH anyone could have and goes above & beyond to help out with everything. It seems she clearly doesn't wish to be involved much at this point. I'd reach out once more, and if she ignores it or brushes you off again - give someone else the reigns.

When is your wedding? It's a busy time of year; she may just not be in planning mode at the moment and may be swamped with other things.
