Answer 1

Yeah do it make it the best!!! Decorate or maybe even paint your house very nice, yard look nice, fresh flowers, steal the neighbors flowers if needed, LOL!. Just be very be hospitable. This important event only comes hopefully once in a lifetime. Since low on money have invitations made on computer, ask who can make good deli type trays and cake w/in the family, things done your self is so much more inexpensive. You can also get good deals at party stores, they have a shower section and is so much more inexpensive than a person you hire to do this, they go to alot of the same type places. You will just have to do a lot of leg work but you can do it & make it fun.

Answer 2

of course you should help, mother of the bride should always be involved in the shower, it's the bachelorette party you definatly want to stay away from lol !!! when I got married I was so appreciative of my mother helping I even MADE her help do some of the planning I was a "bridezilla" and began planning 14 months in advance and was always begging for her help, the more she helped the more I felt she cared. By the way a VERY GOOD website for bridal shower and wedding decorations is www.orientaltrading.com the cheapest I have seen I think thats how its spelled if its not email me [e-mail] and I'll look it up for you. Best of luck to you and your daughter!!!

If you are unsure if you can afford it as well try asking your guest to bring their favorite dish with the recipe to be put in a book for the bride to be that way you dont look like you cant afford something nice for you daughter and your daughters friend but you will create something rememble for you daughter and her future husband, you can get your guest to write why it is their favorite recipe and where they got it from in the first place, I did this at a friends bridal shower and It was fantastic tasting all the diffrent recipes and then the bride got to try them at a later stage in her own home.

Answer 4

classic regulations for bridal showers: one million. The bride contributes purely the concentrated visitor checklist. She does no longer pay for or host a tub. 2. The bathe won't take delivery of by applying any of the bride's kinfolk. it may take delivery of by applying a relative of the groom, yet in maximum cases showers are hosted by applying acquaintances. 3. The bridesmaids are already on the hook for their clothing, their footwear, their hair, etc. provide them a ruin! 4. No marriage will go through if there have been no bridal showers previous the marriage. bathe provides traditionally have been small, basic products. (wedding ceremony presents have been greater significant). 5. inspite of the reality that a majority of those regulations are widely omitted, they're nonetheless stunning.

Answer 5

My mother gave me my bridal shower. Along with my sister & aunt.

In this day & age WHO CARES who is giving the shower.

Do whatever you feel comfortable doing. Don't let others dictate your life.

Answer 6

I have never heard of the mother not getting involved. When I got married my future mother-in-law threw me one, my mom threw me one and my future sister-in-law also threw me one.

My opinion is - anyone can throw a bridal shower and accept help from whoever wants to help out.

Answer 7

You sound unsure whether you want to help or not. If you are able to help at all, let her know what exactly you are willing to do. Remember, this is for your daughters benefit, not the bridesmaids.

Answer 8
