Anyone not want to be surprised for a Bridal Shower

I know exactly where I would like to have mine, and I not much of a fan of Surprises.

Anyone else out there planning to know all the details?

I'm not one for being surprised. However, not sure if I'd really want to know all the details either. I did put together my guest list and I do know that my MOH contacted my mother. That's about it. I'm sure I'll peeking at the registry too!

I really don't want to be surprised either. I'm probably going to help my mom and sister with the planning.

Re: Anyone not want to be surprised for a Bridal Shower

Well my MOH was already upset that I had to know the date to ensure I came to New York so she tried to keep everything else a secret. What I did do.... bad me bad me..... I would say 'oh this place is nice' or I would tell my mom what type of cake I like and the sort. My mom helpe the bridal party so I knew the news would get back to them.

Actually my MOH did tell me after the shower that they changed the actual cake because my mom came and said I really like strawberry cake and they had picked out pineapple cake originally. So she had to run to the baker and change it.

bad me ... bad me....

2 of my BMs live out of state, so I doubt very much that there will be any surprises kept from me. I know for a fact that it is already in the works. I just don't know where or when....

I knew when and where, and I wanted it that way. The downside was I also heard about the issues arising and which BMs were causing probelms - that I could've done without.

I know about mine. I'm not very traditional and didn't care to be surprised. I would rather be there to meet everyone. These days most brides have one anyway so I would be expecting it. I don't know all the details...just when, where, and the favors. It will be fun!

Re: Anyone not want to be surprised for a Bridal Shower

I am providing a guest list and asked only that I be told about the date. My FMIL will probably travel up to NY with me so I need to coordinate that (I live in DC) Besides that, I don't want to be know anything!

I don't mind a surprise but, if I have no make-up on and curlers in my hair I'll kill them!!

Re: Anyone not want to be surprised for a Bridal Shower

I want to know the exact date, but they will only tell me the exact weekend. SO i guess I will have to look like a glam girl the whole time.

Re: Anyone not want to be surprised for a Bridal Shower

I want to be suprised but i want to make sure that my nails are done, may roots are done, my hair straightened, I have a hot outfit on, and a camera with extra rolls of film in hand! Not asking too much!
