Bridal Shower yes or no???

I have a lot of older friends and some family that won't be able to come to the bachelorette party so we decided on 2(which is what I've done for all of my friends that I've thrown showers or parties for).

So my question is should I feel greedy...should I cancel?

Sorry, i'm confused. are you having a bridal shower? are you registering?

i think its great that your MOH wants to throw you 2 parties...the more the merrier. people will always want to make comments. pay them no mind. if someone offers you a party, then i don't think you're being greedy. its not like you're throwing yourself a shower just to get gifts.

Girl do not feel greedy! This is all about you! lol Do what you will. They don't have to buy you house gifts but they can buy you some lingerie, soaps and lotions, etc. I am not registering for my bridal shower, I am just asking them to bring what they want or a giftcard.

My bridal shower is more about spending these last few moments with my girls, because I know when I get married, I may not have as much time. So don't feel greedy, this your time

Just because you're established does not mean no one should give you anything.... Do a honeymoon fund or something! You deserve presents. Just saying.

I had two showers as well. FHs friends and family out of state wanted to host one for us so we let them, why would we say no to more gifts? FH and I both lived alone prior to moving in together so we essentially had two of everything. We still registered because we wanted new, nice, adult things. We wanted things to match and not have towels all colors of the rainbow and what not.

I never say no to presents. I told my BM's that it's their call and they threw one for me. And I got a surprise one at work. If more people decide to do it (probably not) i'd be more than happy about it.

Just register for what you could still use. If you feel like they don't want to do it and really like you literally have everything though then I wouldn't say anything. If someone wants to throw a shower they will do a surprise one.

Have the shower(s) for sure! Could your mom host it? You could also drop hints if you need someone to host (I'm completly ignoring etiquette here--sometimes people need a little nudge!) Even if you can't think of much to register for, is there anything you need to update? You said you have a lot of hand-me-downs--maybe it's time to hand those down to someone else and start fresh. My sister and her husband had lived together for 4 years before they got married and they had a ton of stuff. I was the lucky recipient of all her old stuff and she got brand-new china, utensils, everything. One of my cousins will likely get it when it's time for my shower.

Somehow FH and I ended up with four crockpots when he moved in, though. Not sure how that one happened.

Just because you already got a place and everything you need for a place does not mean you can't have a bridal shower. A bridal shower isn't about furnishing a place. It's to shower the bride or if you are having a jack-n-jill shower it's to shower the both of you.

Usually I gift things for the bride-- massages, crazy lingerie, mani/pedi that would help relax the bride before her wedding day.

You can always register for his and her robes, or new pillows, or if you don't want gifts-- say no to gifts. but who doesn't want gifts?? Ask for gift cards to your favorite stores, etc. You guys can always use more toilet paper or new towels or new sheets. you can't possibly have everything..(do you?? hehe)

Besides a bridal shower is also to get to know the bridal party more and the guests who are coming...so when the wedding day comes-- more people know more of each other. I love bridal shower games...it's fun and you get to make laughs and memories.

Enjoy every moment!

Do not feel greedy! I am having a bridal shower and a bachelorette party. I think the party is more for my girls. LOL

My FH and I are combining two household into one so we did a honeymoon registry. We are seasoned professionals and we don't need stuff.

Enjoy your moment because at the end of the day it's all about you at the shower!
