Who did you all invite to your bridal shower? I am under the impression we should invite all of the women that will be invited to our wedding (about 45). Is that the case so people don’t feel left...

This mom is a great friend who had a baby a few months ago. She's always going on and on about how nobody is allowed to touch her baby, not family, not friends, no touching of socks, no standing too...

So my FH's mother and friends planned a surprise bachelorette for me. All I was told was to be ready at 10:00 AM as we were going out with the girls for the day. Didn't know until they showed up at my...

My original plan was to have a Jill & Jill bridal shower (two brides to be), but instead of gifts, guests can contribute to a honey fund. Does anyone have any experience with this? If we are...

Do people still do bridal showers or do we just stick to having a bachelorette party?
To the bridesmaids out there- I need your advice! What do you typically expect to spend on a bachelorette weekend? I've found some fairly reasonable VRBO's, I am just really unsure of what is "fair"...

I'm really set on wearing a white romper to my bachlorette party. I know there will be booze and food involved (it's a surprise), and I know it might be a hassle with a romper, but I'm really set on...
