15 women showering together I'm responsible for planning my sister's wedding shower. My question when I sat down at the computer this afternoon was: what goes on at a wedding shower? The answer, it appears, is games, food, and gifts...all under one theme. I'm not really much of a theme person. Nor am I much of a girl-party person, AOII notwithstanding. However, this is what is expected of me, so I will not dissapoint. What I'm thinking is either a gift basket theme, or a recipe theme. Either the guests are given a type of basket to create, such as a bathroom gift basket, or they're given a time of day and must find a "tried and true" recipe as well as a matching gift, such as lasagne recipe and a pan. Good ideas, don't you think? The rest should take care of itself really...invite a bunch of women to a wedding shower and they'll probably handle the entertaining. I hope. Luckily, neither my sister nor I is much on girl friends. This makes the guest list easy because they're mostly family and my mother's friends who've known us since we were born. I'm still not looking forward to hosting this. |
