Looking for suggestions on etiquette for how to throw my own bridal shower, possibly slash housewarming party. Short story: 3 years ago I was engaged to someone else and canceled my wedding. It all happened the same weekend as my shower. So my bridesmaids threw me a beautiful shower and I returned all the presents the next day. Fast forward to now, I’m engaged to someone new and do not want to burden my bridesmaids with throwing me a shower again. Although, being that I gave all the gifts back last time, would like to have another shower. All my friends and family know what happened, so I don’t think anyone is judging me but I still feel very awkward about it all. I was also debating on somehow incorporating it as a housewarming party, to not make it look like I’m just throwing my own shower. My fiancé and I already bought a house so thinking it could be a twofer. Any suggestions?
