no!  I totally wouldn't....you already got her a gift, which should totally sufice.  I absolutly detest it when people invite people to showers and not weddings....its like saying "hey, we'll sponge a gift off ya, but your not good enough to come to the wedding!"  How tacky!  I don't understand what the logic is when she can invite you to a shower to give her presents when she hasn't seen ya, but is gonna use the very same excuse not to invite you to the reception.  not cool at all.  You've done your share, let this one go!

Im getting married May 20, 2006 and my bridal shower was April 8th.  Our couples shower is this saturday (4/22).  That leaves plenty of weekends for finishing up wedding work, bachelor/bachellorette parties, etc.  And believe me there is a lot of etc.

Yikes! No, what you are describing sounds very attention getting. This is the bride's special day, and all of the attention should be directed toward her and the groom. The mothers of both bride and groom should dress with good taste and in a subdued manner.

I think it is very appropriate.  The Godparents have agreed to be a spiritual and religious leader, as well as support and friend for you daughter as she grows up.  This is a big commitment.  A small gift, such as maybe a gift card, or a small bouquet of flowers, would be a good sign of appreciation for such a commitment and dedication.  If you feel uncomfortable buying them gifts, maybe take them out to a nice brunch or supper following the ceremony.\n\nA baptism is about the child, or your daughter, but more than that it is about a COMMUNITY, the community of the church accepting your daughter into their christian family and vowing to help raise her as a disciple.  The godparents represent this acceptance, and are the primary people in charge of this important and large task.

I went to a few outdoor weddings when my son was younger and he as well was quite the handful himself. To entertain my son I bought some bubbles. Also I got permission from the bride to bring extra bottles with me... the kind I got were the little bottles at the dollar tree in the wedding section. The bride thought it was a great idea to keep the children in the wedding entertain plus it made her wedding really pretty as well with bubbles floating all around. So you might ask the couple that are getting married if it is o.k.Bubbles keep kids occupied for hours. Two other ideas is coloring book and crayons or a little sticker book and stickers,I recommend the sticker books that the stickers can be removed and put back with out tearing.

If you are worried, don't call it a bridal shower. Just ask the women to come along to a women's night of celebration for the bride. Women love any excuse to get together and have a great time. I wouldn't worry too much but if you want to be safe rather than sorry, just call it something else.\nHope you have a great time!

Who would you (and your husband to be) like to be there? We invited parents (& step-mother), siblings, aunties&uncles, cousins, grandparents (& step-grandmother) in addition to closest friends and their boy/girlfriends. But it's up to you. Do you want a small or a big wedding? Maybe you & groom should to sit down together and decide what you want the day to be like before you start doing anything else.

I think that sounds lovely, especially for an outdoor wedding in the summer! If anyone says they don't like it, stick out your tongue and tell them to bugger off. It's your wedding and you can do what you want.

Please don't.\nEven if your kid is the best in the world, that is asking a lot from a toddler.\nDo you have a relative that can baby sit?\nWhat about a professional sitter at the wedding or near the wedding location?

Yes they should.  If rules are good for one, they should be good for all.  But the two of you need to sit down and discuss, first, what kind of rules you have for each set of kids.  Compromise on some if need be.  But make sure all the kids have the same rules or it could look like a game of favoritism is being played.

right after the engagement so then it will be available for engagement parties, as well as showers and the reception.  we did ours a couple weeks after we got engaged and it really helped. =) Don't put it off too long, because as fun as it sounds, it can also be a little stressful if you two have different tastes...Trust me. =)

According to Peggy Post: "A guest invited to a shower should bring a gift. If an invited guest can't attend, it is not obligatory to send a gift; however, a close friend or family member sometimes chooses to send a gift regardless."

I think about 12. It depends on how mature the child is and where the party is going to be. It also depends on the parents opinion.
