Bridal Shower Fears

Posted Saturday, June 07, 2008 10:27 AM

My two sisters, one the MOH and one a BM, have been lovely enough to plan a bridal shower for me next weekend. Many of the guests are family or friends of my mom's, but the few people still left in Houston are invited as well (although I must say that none of them have RSVP'ed to sissy - harumph).

One of my other bridesmaids "K" recently reminded me that one my greatest fears will soon come to fruition. Since we were sophomores in college, K has had a plot to embarrass me at my bridal shower, which really goes back to the first time we watched Pulp Fiction. For whatever reason, K thinks it would be hilarious to have me open her gift at the bridal shower, in front of my grandma (which is an integral part of her comedy scenario). Inside the pretty white paper and ribbons would be a ball gag.

"She can't really want to do that," is what you're thinking. No, she can, and I am now terrified that she will. Although she is in California and can't come to the shower, my sister has received a package in the mail for the shower. She thinks I am being difficult because I have refused to open it. I just can't.

Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum.

re: Bridal Shower Fears

Can you talk to K and tell her you're worried about it? Maybe if you explain your feelings she'll understand, and decide not to do it. Try letting her know that a joke like that would make the atmosphere uncomfortable for some of your guests, or ask that she hold off on it 'til the bachelorette party :) Whatever you decide, good luck!

Tell your grandma it's a garlic press.

If my grandmother knew what a ball gag was, she would laugh her ass off. And she's so uptight she developed physical symptoms of her anxiety.

I like the garlic press idea.  If your gran is uptight - save the gift for later.  At least your mom didn't want to throw you a naughty lingerie party.  In any case, have fun.
