I agree with you. Its weird to ask everyone to take off their shoes. I'm guessing its be/c she's worried about her house. But then why have a party if she's worried about her house???
Weird....I'd go & have a great time....IN YOUR BOOTS!!!
I think if she would like people to wear footies she should provide them. I do not think she should have put that in the invitation - THAT is what is weird to me.
I used to have white carpet in my home.
She invited mostly close friend and family and some people from out of town and most people don't know this about her because she never acted this way before.
