Bridal Shower

Hi, I am looking for some advice related to a bridal shower. I was skimming through the discussion/forum and noticed that brides were inquiring about a bridal shower with a lot of responses saying it is inappropriate to host your own; why is this? Unfortunately, myself and my fiancé do not have parents (moms/grandmas)... and so our wedding is close friends and some extended family. What is the proper etiquette for hosting a bridal shower? TIA

To the ladies that have had very positive, kind words about this discussion-I appreciate it!! Yes, this “shower” is nothing more than just a celebration. My fiancé and I have been together for 12 years and have lived together almost our entire relationship...so everyone who knows us, knows we don’t NEED anything as we have been making it on our own since the age of 18 (well except money bahaha but who doesn’t need $$$ LOL?!) and so, it’s more of just a gathering of friends to celebrate. Anyways, thank you all for your kindness. Lots of love.

Although it was at my parents' house I "hosted" my own shower with my mom and my aunt. It's entirely up to you if you want to do it. My MOH and all my other bridesmaids live too far away to host mine. Mine was mainly for my family and friends who lived close.
