Bridal shower vs couple shower

Laura, on September 12, 2019 at 3:37 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 6
My future in laws are wanting to throw my FH & I a couples shower a month or so before our wedding. Since we will be having this shower, is there any reason/need to have a bridal shower also?

    I would have one or the other, not both. Considering showers are gift giving occasions, it would come across gift hungry. You can definitely have a girls day (separate from the bachelorette party if you're having one) in place of a bridal shower though! Smiley smile

    It depends on your guest list. If they're offering to host a couples shower and someone else is offering to host a bridal shower, there's absolutely nothing gift hungry about having both. People have multiple showers all the time. You would just need to make sure that the guest lists don't overlap besides your bridal party, who I would also tell that you don't expect them to attend and bring gifts to both.

    Some people have both. One for family and one for friends.

    We will probably doing both! We have church and family that wants to throw us a wedding shower, but I know my mom, sister, and aunt want to do a bridal shower with just the girls!

    No, I'd just have the one shower.
