Wow I am so sorry that happened. But at least the food was yummy and the gifts were good!
I really don't know what to say about your MOH, has she ever acted like this before? If she does do it again, definitely bring it up.
Um, yeah. She pretty much has always dressed in sizes that are too small for her. She doesn't have the best self esteem so she tries too hard. But it never occurred to me that she'd do that at a shower! And the way she spoke to people, I thought she was over that because it was the reason she got fired from her dream job. Basically, I'm an idiot for setting myself up! Lol
I'm sorry there were negatives. I have to chuckle a little because you said how you were focusing on the positive, yet your paragraph describing the negative was three times as long as the one describing the positive. LOL! (But I totally get it. That would be me too!)
As for the MOH thing...strange. Perhaps she isn't experienced in showers, and wasn't really thinking? Maybe she's uncomfortable talking in front of others and worried that the game wouldn't go over well? I don't think I would bother to discuss it with her, because I'm assuming there wouldn't be another situation where she would be doing this for you again. You know what she's wearing to the wedding, right? Maybe if she's making a speech you could mention something about not talking to o loud or slow (or however she sounded at the shower). But for the most part I would just let it be.
Honestly, I wouldn't say anything to the MOH. It's not like anything you say will change the way she acts (especially if getting fired didn't change it!) and confronting her will only cause drama before the wedding. It's not like these things will be a problem again- she's wearing the bridesmaid dress and won't be in charge or explaining things since the shower is over. If you do want to address her clothing, I say wait until the wedding is over...
True, I don't really need to talk to her, I'll get over it. The speech at the wedding should be interesting! Hahaha.
@tanya- I swear the smaller paragraph outweighs the longer one! :)
awww at least you had a mostly successful shower! :)
i'm so nervous about mine... integrating the two families, etc. HUGE language barrier... AHHHHHH.
it sounds like the bad points are probably more highlighted in your head, as your the bride, than with your guests... i'm sure they didn't even notice anything that poppped out to you... as for your scantily clad MOH, i wouldn't say anything, she probably didn't mean any harm and just didn't know any better...
it sucks thta one of your BM's was so uncoopertaive... but every time she pops up in your head, just think of your delish choco fountain! that always makes me smile! choco fountains i mean :P!
Ohhh, well I'm sorry it wasn't all you hoped it would be. At least you got some good presents and food :o)
All my mom and sister have done is complain about planning my shower. They keep saying that my friends/BMs are taking attitudes with them being difficult. I can't imagine my friends "having an attitude." I'm so worried about how things are going to work out :o(
Aw, thanks missjyc! You're right, some of the stuff probably flew under the radar. I'm not going to say anything to my MOH. She doesn't know better, which is strange but what can ya do? She asked me twice what to wear though, clearly she didn't like the suggestions haha. As far as your concern, with integrating the families. I think it might be easier than you think. Everyone is there to have a great time, they're happy and it will make for a fun day. The language barrier might be an issue but they'll still have fun and so will you!
I just got off the phone with my Mother, she said there were 16 people that rsvp'ed yes and didn't show. So now my Mother is freaking out because she's afraid they'll do the same for the wedding. Yikes! I'm gonna still try to be positive, even if it kills me!

The shower was yesterday. I was so worried. Mostly because my Mother was nervous about how it would turn out, since it was mostly my FI's family who we don't know well. I say somewhat successful because truthfully, I'm just choosing to focus on the positive, 'cause there was definitely some negatives. For instance: My MOH was dressed liiiiike, a woman of the night... why? Its all older women, no one to impress here. She was also in charge of reading the intructions of the game to everyone, and she spoke to them as if they were all in kindergarten. Should I talk to her about her conduct? I'm embarassed by her now! And the person in charge of the photos didn't do the best job. Someone walked away with all of the extra wine... so classy. They also took extra favors. One of my BM's refused to pitch in, even if it meant to just throw stuff away. And, lots of people rsvp'ed but didn't show.
But, I got some good gifts! And we had chocolate fondue! The food was yummy.... and its finally over! Yay. I've vented a lot about it here so I wanted to say thank you for relieving some of the stress!
