Although I don't know you as well as others on this board, my opinion on the matter based on what you wrote, you're doing the right thing. You sent a gift for the shower and intent on sending one for the wedding, which, although not required, is appreciated!

The bride to be needs to calm down - she shouldn't be getting upset over things like this so close to the nuptials. There's more to be concerned over.

And I would skip the bachelor party for the reasons you stated - these things are meant for close friends/family.



ITA!...it just sounds like she was hoping to turn you and your DW into closer friends and since that isn't happening, she is getting upset

I dont think she is needy or playing any games.

Even though she has only met boosh twice, I think she genuinely (sp) invited her to become friends.
She is friends with YOU and obviously enjoys your company but knows her bounderys and enjoyed booshes company as well when she met her.

By inviting you to the bachelor party clearly shows that, this couple wants to become friends with the two of you and is inviting you to meet their friends and family.

sounds like she felt let down and that is why she is reacting this way. Maybe she thinks you two dont want to be friends with them and she is hurt.

i dont know, maybe im an abnormal female...but i had my cousins wife no show to my shower and not send a gift and it didnt phase me at all. even when she called to apologize and say she's sending a gift and then never sent one. i honestly just didnt care cause she wasnt that important to me.

and when 2 people no showed to my wedding, i gave them the benefit of the doubt. i think your friend needs to realize that her wedding day (and planning stuff) is only the most important thing in the world to HER. if she starts to understand that, she wont be so disappointed in people. JMO.

glad everything worked out for you guys though! Chat Icon
