My step mom, MOH, FMIL, and FSMIL are Generously hosting a shower for me. Shower is in June and all 5 of us (only us) are hanging out this Saturday to make baskets for the shower. My stepmom asked if I can be there to help and help it make it less awkward since she doesn’t really talk or generally hang with my fiancé’s moms so anyways! Since it’s just us I was thinking why not give their gifts then? I know it’s a month before but I feel like it’d be less awkward than the day of giving at the actual event.

is that ok?

    I think it's a good idea as well. That way you don't have to remember to bring it to the shower or find a time to give it to them.

    Thanks, Jenna! I didn’t either but there are so many etiquette rules I can’t keep up. Last thing I want to do is offend anyone lol

    I don't think there is a right or wrong time to do this! I think if you are all going to be together, it's a great idea! Then you don't have to try to remember or find the right time to do it on the actual shower day! You will have a lot going on that day anyway!

    Hi Anna! Did you end up giving them the gifts? Did they love them? What did you decide to give them as gifts?
