I know this is a baby shower board, but I thought I'd ask anyhow. Is it still customary to have favors for a bridal shower?
DH's cousinis getting married and her mother said she wouldn't feel comfortable planning her shower per etiquette...her MOH is her sister who is 19, so they agreed the 19 year old would host it. She asked to use my home because the mother feels it's inappropriate to have it at her home even if her daughter is the host. I am ending up doing most of the planning because let's face it...a 19 year old doesn't really know how to plan a shower. SO, all that to ask....should we do a favor? We had them at my shower 8 years ago and I have no idea if people still do them or not?! If so, any ideas?
Re: NBR, bridal shower favors?
Thanks for all the input...I don't think I have ever taken a favor home from a shower, but I don't really remember if they were offered. I seem to remember the wedding favors of the last few I've been to were kinda cheapy stuff that I just didn't take!
I may just do a small candy type favor!
Yes, they still do them, although some people don't and it's not a big deal. I went to a shower and the favor was a truffle. It was delicious and I ate it before I even left! lol
