Bridal Shower Etiquette

bridalshower

 

Along with your wedding usually comes wedding showers. Today we are featuring some Do’s and Don’ts of wedding showers inspired by Emily post’s Wedding Etiquette.

Don’t force any of your friends to throw you a shower. No matter how bad you want to have one, they are quite expensive and being in your wedding might already be costing them a pretty penny.

Don’t invite people to your shower that you’re not inviting to your wedding. 

Do send thank you notes to your shower guest and make sure one is sent to the hostess or hostesses too. Some people even buy small gifts for their hostess.

Don’t invite guests to more than one shower. The only exception is if you want to invite your bridal party to each shower, but make sure to tell them not to buy you gifts for each of shower.

Do include your registry information in the envelope with your shower invitation.

 

Do you have any wedding etiquette questions you would like us to feature on our blog?
