I was invited to my boyfriend's brother's fiancee's bridal shower 2.5 hours away from where I live. Even though my boyfriend and I are quite serious and I am pretty close to his parents, I am not very close to the bride or his brother at all. Additionally, I wouldn't know anyone else there other than the MOG. I recognize what a kind gesture it was for them to invite me, which is why I feel like I should go, but at the same time, I feel reluctant to waste a weekend driving back and forth to go to a shower where I won't know anyone, for a bride I am hardly even friends with. What to do??
If you and your boyfriend are that serious, and you expect that maybe you may be married one day, you may want to make the effort. Perhaps your boyfriend would go along.
That being said, showers are supposed to be small parties with guests who are close to the couple. Since you don't seem to be too close with them, I'm sure you could find a tactful way to excuse yourself.
