Can I ask MOH to step down ?

Q. My Maid of Honor is my sister in Law to be,  Her mom was angry with us about the shower and so she did not help plan it and has stopped calling me.  I would like to ask her to step down.  Is that the right thing to do?
 

 
 
A. I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with your maid of honor.  If I understand correctly, your future mother-in-law was angry with both of you over your shower, so your sister-in-law didn't help plan it.  First, the maid of honor doesn't have to give the shower.  She may if she has the time, money, and the know-how, but anyone (other than your mother or the groom's mother) can give a shower. 
 
It sounds as though your sister-in-law is having a problem with her mother and she may not be telling you about it.  I wouldn't ask her to step down.  To do so will cause problems not only with her but with her family as well, and you are going to have to live with them for the rest of your life.  You say she has stopped calling you, but have you tried calling her?  You might invite her out for coffee and spend a little quiet time together and see if she is willing to tell you what might be bothering her.  Does she perhaps feel like she is being expected to do too much for the wedding?  When one agrees to be in the wedding party, they shouldn't be expected to know what you have in mind for them to do and you shouldn't expect them to do everything that you want or to be available whenever you want them to be.  Perhaps if the two of you talk about how much she is able to help you, then you will both feel better about the situation.
