[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This etiquette is outdated. I think it’s better for the mom to shell out money to host than to impose upon a friend. I was a bridesmaid a million years ago, and the mother insisted that etiquette dictated the bridesmaids should foot the bill. As a law student, I really wasn’t equipped to host a fancy shower on top of the dress, shoes, makeup, salon/stylist, manicure, plus gift plus bachelorette trip. It was super annoying since the parents of both the bride and groom had nice homes and plenty of money. Screw etiquette. [/quote] My daughter had two recent grad friends hosting her baby shower, so I paid for the catering and decorations. I let them choose everything and they sent me the links, so I could order and pay. They organized the party itself. It was a nice solution.[/quote] So you hosted the shower (by paying for it). You just outsourced the planning to her pals who did it pro bono. [/quote]
