After discovering that we are expecting, my fiance and I decided to scrap our previous wedding ideas and have either a civil ceremony or an "elopement" in Niagara Falls in January.
I still want to have a get together with the girls before, and a friend offered to plan a shower, but I don't really feel comfortable with a traditional shower, because I don't want my friends to think they should bring a gift when they won't be at the wedding ceremony, I'd also like to celebrate us expecting a baby and while I'm at it, consolidate my bachelorette party in there too (I am pretty busy, and just don't have time for lots of parties)
Would it be appropriate to invite my friends over for dinner and then surprise them by telling them its a bachelorette/pre-wedding/pre-baby party? I really want to stay away from "showers" because I don't want my friends to think they need to bring a gift, I just want to spend time with my friends before getting married..
