How thoughtful of you, I think it is a terrific MOH!
oh good! I was worried the moms would be mad that they cant come to the shower, but i know the bride and she wont be up for something so structured so close to the wedding when people will be there, so i figure the spa day is a way to relax everyone AND get family time in :)
I think that sounds great! Really her sister should prob offer to throw her a separate family shower in their home town-- but I think you throwing one in her home town for friends is great!
As both a just recently married bride and now a mother of the bride, I think this is an awesome idea :-)
Does the location you are doing the bridal shower at have internet acces? You could always suprise her and skype them in.
You are now my MOH. Ok? Deal?
You're awesome! You can always talk to her mom about them not being there if you're really concerned, but I think its fabulous that you considered them and that you're trying to include them.
I love it :) That is so wonderful of you to plan for both :) What an awesome MOH!
@tksjewelry: OMG best. idea. ever.
@CorgiTales: and her sister isnt the most enthusiastic when it comes to weddings (different culture) - hence why the bride has a Maid of honor (her sister) and me the Matron of Honor - im all gung ho about wedding planning since i just got hitched myself (yall know how it is for a new bride - you swear you should be a wedding planner! lol)
That sounds wonderful. Don't feel guilty, it's out of your control. I think it's great that you've found a different way to include them. You're awesome!
Thank you ladies!!!!! i feel much better - and im now itching with ideas of how to skype into the shower or at the very least maybe get her mom to record a video message and play it? hmmmmm

Okay heres the situation:
I am MOH in my friends wedding. Her family is from out of town (has to fly in) and the groom's family is from out of town (fly in or 7-8 hour drive) but all her friends are mostly in town here. (the wedding is here as well) I am planning her bridal shower, and i sent out a peliminary email to find out who could come to the bridal shower so i can give the place the final head count since i have to finalize the count before i can put a deposit down. It seems that neither her mom and sister nor the grooms mom and groom's sister can make it, costs too much to travel here. :(
It is totally low key - nice bridal brunch with drinks and friends, but i feel horrible that NONE of the mothers will be able to make it.
So i have now also planned a spa day for the moms and bridesmaids a day before the rehearsal when folks get into town. So that way the mom's get special time with the bride as well.
Do you think this is sufficient? HELP?
