I'm the future M-I-L and there is a "round the clock" bride's shower. My hour is 10pm. What would be a gift for 10pm? hmmmm, this is for my future dau in law.

Sexy lingerie. It might seem strange coming from mother-in-law, but it could also be fun. Or you could get her stuff for the bathroom (some people shower at 10 p.m.). Sleeping is the other thing happening at 10 p.m. - you could get her stuff for the bedroom. In my case, at 10 p.m. I was awake at 10 p.m. cooking a meal for my husband who had to go to work - so something for the kitchen. Now, for me my activitiy is reading - so something for a library. Just evaluate what they might be doing at this time and have fun any way that you go with it.

A nice set of sheets or towels would work at any time of the day. Skip the sexy stuff that gets old fast. I received so much that I did not weal all of it, besides it will be a memory of you; err on the side of tastefulness. Let her friends give the lingerie.

I agree with some sort of a wind down the day gift Bubble bath, oils, etc..... Something nice though- not a Walmart candle or anything!!

i never heard of a round the clock bridal shower, but i would think it wouldn't matter, you're the one buying/giving the gift. a gracious daughter in law will be happy with whatever you get her. lingerie is always good....

Why does the preset have to be hourly specific? Get her something that she will like and use long after the shower, that way it means more than just a common party favor.

Something she might actually USE at 10:00 pm like a sexy nightie maybe? Or perhaps a nice basket full of massage oils and such?

I like what Amy said. Give a nice set of sheets for the bed. If you aren't sure what their colors are going to be, buy beige or ivory.

A wedding ring quilt.

something skimpy - if you want a grandchild that is.
but nice bed sheet set would be ok. as long as it's higher quality
