How to plan a bridal shower?

Can I plan and host my own bridal and wedding shower?

  • My maid of honor is my little sister who is only 18. She knows how tradition goes, but she doesn't like to plan things like this, she said. My other bridesmaids are out of town, ...show more

  • Answer:

    No you can not. It's wrong to give yourself a shower. The bride is an honor guest, she is not the host. Second, anyone can give you a shower, it does not have to be a member of the bridal party. I had two, neither from my bridal party. My aunt had one and my mother in law had one. They were house showers, to keep the number low. Some people would say family should not have showers, I, like many people have family weddings where most of the guest are family, so is the wedding party. How do you know your grandmother or an aunt or someone from your fiancé side is not planning a shower, they all know how young your sister is, the other are out of town. A bride does not have to be told about showers.

Sorry, people would think you are rude . Do put an etiquette book on your wedding gift registry such as Peggy Post's. It will help you the rest of your life. Truly, it will. Im not trying to preach but it just makes life so much easier to know what is expected and what is not proper.

It's not modern. It's rude. Your sister should not be throwing you a shower anyways. It should NOT be hosted by immediate family. You only get a shower if someone VOLUNTEERS to throw one for you. You are not entitled to one - many brides don't get one. If you want to host a shower then you can step up to the plate when one of your friends gets married. This is how it works.

You're going to throw yourself a gift giving party? There's a reason why a bride doesn't throw her own bridal shower.

I wouldn't call it "modern", but rather, self serving and classless. You don't host parties in your own honor. It is gauche. If no one offers to throw you a shower don't have one, but don't embarrass yourself by making gift giving events for yourself. By the way, you will be hosting not one but two showers, did I read that right? Not enough with throwing yourself a bridal shower, you go to the vulgarity of throwing a wedding shower too? Gift grabbing much?
