Another shower question/lingerie gifts?

I think that should be reserved more for the bachelorette party...

Oh gawd. This is just me thinking out loud but the idea of receiving lingerie for a gift would make me blush. It's such a personal thing in my eyes (Guess I'm a prude). Not knocking it for other BS but, just can't imagine it for myself.

My shower was this past Sunday and I did the normal registries, but I did get some lingerie gifts so I do think some people do that anyway.

I threw one for my cousin that was lingerie themed....and just found out recently that mine will be as well here in a few months and I'm super excited! The one I threw was several years ago and I can't remember exactly how we worded it, but I definitely made it clear on the invite that was the gift theme...in addition, the invitation I chose had a really cute lingerie graphic on it. We also included the Bride's sizes at the bottom of the invite.

OP, if you go to Etsy and search "lingerie shower invitation" you'll see a ton of examples!

It's usually either/or, you get traditional gifts or lingerie. You can tell from the invite because it'll say either "bridal shower" or "lingerie shower" usually. You don't have to register anywhere for it, but your bra and panty size should go on the invite!

In my circles we usually combine it with the bachelorette party, close to the wedding.

I went to a shower where the Bride and MOH decided that it would be ok to put a note in to friends invites that listed the brides sizes. Bride thought it would be weird to get lingerie from grandma but didn't think it would be as weird from us, so only a few got that included. I thought that was a nice compromise. Also, I let the MOH know that one of the packages from me did contain a silky robe and if the bride did not want to open it in front of everyone, she did not have to.

Good advice here, y'all. Thank you.

I'm having a lingerie shower next month! They're not typical showers, but they seem like a lot of fun. I know I will probably be embarrased during some parts, but I think we will all have a lot of fun as well. If you don't have a lingerie shower specifically though, I'm not sure there is a way to communicate that type of gift is welcome.

I love this idea! As long as the people coming know that it's a lingerie shower I don't see a problem.

I went to a lingerie shower for FHs cousins (now) wife. She's my age, but besides FH sister and one or two other girls, everybody was older (between 50 and 70 I'd say). She is very conservative (waiting till the wedding night conservative), but it was sort of fun and not too awkward. It was definitely not what I would do for mine, but whenever somebody mentions that they would feel awkward receiving lingerie in front of people, I'm mentioning this one. Her mum was there, her MIL and some aunts.

I didn't know I was supposed to have a bridal shower registry. Most gave me lingerie and other honeymoon additions

And three people gave gift cards. I didn't put anything on the invite about just lingerie. They might "just know". I honestly thought you give the bride a gift from the wedding registry lol (I found out the hard way after I attended a bridal shower 2wks ago)
