My son, who is divorced, is planning his second marriage. This will be the first marriage for the bride. For my son's first wedding, several friends hosted showers for the couple. If one of them offers to host a shower for this marriage, is it ok to accept the offer? I am afraid that my friends may feel like they are hosting "another" shower for the same person (son). My son is afraid this will make him appear "greedy"as far as my friends are concerned, but wants to be fair about everything for his bride. Note: all of my friends knew the first wife left my son for another man, so it isn't like he is a serial groom or anything. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Re: [justblueforyou] Bridal shower for a second marriage?

Dear MOG,
If someone wants to host a shower that is fine. But, if your son feels apprehensive about it, perhaps it shouldn't be hosted. A shower is an optional event.
If it is hosted, anyone who attended his first shower is not obligated to give again.
