my older sister asked me to be her maid of honor months ago, but never made clear to me what she wants me to do as far as bridal shower, etc goes. i'm 19 and a full time college student, and i live in a dorm 200 miles from home. the wedding is only a month away, and i'm now panicking about what my responsibilities are. i want to make her happy and feel special, but i don't know how to throw a bridal shower, or if she even wants one, or expects me to give her one. im afraid to ask her, because its so close to the wedding that it might be too late. i don't even know if she has any bridesmaids and if so, who they are. its not a totally traditional wedding, so i really don't know. also, i dont want to hurt her feelings, or for her to think i blew it off. another thing, she never told me what im supposed to wear. is she supposed to?? please help, im so confused!
also, our parents are divorved and the two sides of the family don't get along. who exactly is supposed to be invited to a shower? aunts? cousins? or just those who are close to her? i'm quite lost.

Dear Lost, I think the first order of the day is to communicate with your sister to find out some basics of the wedding. Second is that family does not host a shower for the bride. If you are only a month away, surely, you should have been notified of what to wear. Check with your sister, she may not want a shower. This total lack of communication has left you with no direction. Try to find out some of the details and go from there.
