I have a huge dilemma, My boyfriend and I have been married before, he had a big wedding 20 years ago, and I had a courthouse wedding 15 years ago. We are going to the Poconos in June to get married. Its just the 2 of us going. When we get back we are throwing a traditonal reception. My question is, is it right for me to have a bridal shower before I go, and if it is ok, who throws it, because there is no bridal party. Thankyou for your reply

Only those invited to the wedding (not the reception but the actual wedding) should be invited to the bridal shower. Someone other than a family member should host it. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".

The wedding in the Poconos is only a initmate cermony for 2. Noone else can be invited. I would still love to have a bridal shower, is it still right?

Dear Bridal Shower,
The Wedding Queen is correct. If you have no one invited to your wedding, there is no one to invite to your shower. No guests equal no guests. Sorry, but it is socially inappropriate for you to have a wedding shower.
