I'm a bridesmaid for one of my best friends. The wedding is in DC, but I live out west. I was able to go to her bachelorette party a few months ago, but I couldn't make it to the bridal shower. I did however, send a shower gift from the registry, which automatically gets delivered to her own address (in NY), not the shower hostess's address (in DC). The gift didn't arrive until a few days after the bridal shower. The bride-to-be emailed me the following Monday to tell me she didn't receive a card from me. Is that rude or should I have made sure she received the gift at the shower?

Definitely bridezilla. But blame it on the registry, which must have forgotten to include your card with the gift.
A propos of inappropriate wedding-related antics, Dear Abby got to answer about the appropriate response to the following "invitation"
"Dear Family: I am asking for your cooperation and understanding. My wedding will be very costly, and this has caused me to make some unpleasant decisions.
"I hope you will see this as a request for a donation and not a charge for you to attend my wedding. I cannot figure out any way other than to ask each guest to contribute to the cost. If anyone is insulted by my request, I am sincerely sorry.
"Your $330 contribution must be received on or before June 30. Only postal money orders will be accepted. Please purchase it only from a U.S. post office. Thank you for your contribution."
These people deserve to have their parents refuse to attend, if for no other reason than to protest how obnoxious they turned out.
