Bridal Shower Question


Recommended Posts

So, obviously we're all having DW so how is everyone handling their showers? We're having a small intimate wedding invited a small group (20 people coming)Are you all having showers and inviting only the guests you invited to the wedding? Or do I just skip out on the whole shower thing? (We don't need gifts, just have a donation website if they would like) What's everyone else doing?

I was going to skip the shower, but I really started to feel left out. I'm a MOH this summer and I'm doing so much work, putting in a lot of money and time and really helping to celebrate my best friend's wedding. I felt guilty having a shower because our wedding is small as well (we only have 14 confirmed right now). I don't have a bridal party because my best friend is not coming... But thankfully my mom and her want to plan a shower for me anyways. They are inviting all the women who are invited to the wedding, including those not coming to the wedding itself (but still invited). My mom is sure that those who can't come to the wedding will appreciate being included in a shower. My grandma's actually flying across the country for my shower but not coming to the wedding! I think you should just do whatever you like. It's not really up to you anyway- if someone wants to throw you a shower, why not just let them?!

imo, i would talk to your mom or other close female family members. chances are your mom already knows in her head what she wants to do. and most of the time, showers are really to appease other people... you just get to keep the gifts. :) but we invited beyond our guestlist and that was my mom's decision... may be faux pas for some but it worked out for us.

I had a shower at my aunt's house. I had some family members, friends & co-workes who can't attend the wedding but they still wanted to celebrate with me in some type of way, so i decided to have a shower. There were 45 that showed and everyone had a great time. I think you should have one. It's a day for you to celebrate with people you care about who can't attend the wedding.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
