I'm going to be involved in the planning. There is really no way to surprise me so I figured I would help plan it that way my sister knows what I want and there's no guessing.

My Matron of Honor wants it to be a surprise and so do my best friend, but m mom has a big mouth. Besides, I try my best to not leave my house on weekends... how else are they going to drag me out in a nice outfit. (I live for sweats.)

I was very involved in planning my Jack and Jill Shower. I would say I had about 100 people in attendance. It was alot of work but I had alot of support as well.

Alot of people were asking me why am I throwing my own shower and I simply told them 'cause I want to'. IMO I dont feel that the bridal party or parents should be obligated to dish out any more money than they need to. I did receive alot of support and I wouldn't have been able to have the shower I wanted without emotional and physical help.

Not at all. My mom and my sister are doing that. I haven't the slightest idea of what they have planned, but I prefer a smaller type gathering. We'll see what happens.

Re: Are you involved with the planning of your bridal shower or

I want mine to be a total surprise, and all of my girls were ok with it. They have not said one word about anything about a shower...but I know they are all talking and planning it.

I want to walk into my shower and not have a clue that it is my shower. I hate when I go to showers and the bride knows. I truly want to be surprised.
