Weddings - September 2007

I'm a bridesmaid in my cousins wedding. Her maid of honor is a pain and isn't on top of the things she is to do. I am helping plan the bridal shower that is next weekend. Let's just say she is not aware of the timing at all even though we have discussed it time and time...so anyways mostly it's me doing the important stuff at the last minute because she it too worried about the cake to book a venue, I had to stay on her to get the invites out on time...etc.

NOW, to the latest issue. She had me ask the brides mother for money and my mother and the other bridesmaids (my sisters) for the shower. I thought that you are to put on the invite who is throwing the shower. On the invite she did not do that, so it looks like she is throwing it alone. My family (nor me) who have given alot of money have not been acknowledged. What can I do to get it corrected? Also, what is the etiquette on gifts when ur spending tons of $ on a wedding as a maid of honor?Any advice would be appreciated

I realize that today is only September 1st, but in my family, if you don't make plans early, the holidays are a mess. We have always celebrated Christmas by driving from house to house. We have two children (ages 12 & 11) and they have never been able to spend a Christmas at home - all day long. I am putting my foot down this year and insisting that we are waking up in our own home and celebrating Christmas all day long in our own home! I have many family members that are upset by this. Do you think we have the right, after many years, to do what we want to do without anyone interfering?? Tomorrow is our 14th wedding anniversary, and after 14 years of marriage, we would like to begin some traditions at home without everyone else in the family (on both sides) being upset that we aren't in their home for Christmas.
