In Reply to: Showers for 2nd marriages - Need Opinion!

I've only been married once (still am), but my brother has been married 3 times.  I think that a wedding shower is generally geared towards the bride.  Therefore, if this is her first wedding and not the groom's - go for it.  If it is the bride's second or third wedding, it just looks greedy.  If she's having a shower for the pure fun of getting the girls together - then just make a notation on the invitation of "no gifts".  However, it sounds from your post, that she's looking for gifts. 


It would seem to me that she'll be getting enough gifts at her wedding.  I don't think a shower for the sole purpose of getting gifts is appropriate.  I also have 3 kids and only had a baby shower for the first one; although, I have to say that I've been to several baby showers for 2nd and 3rd babies.  In those cases, I usually bring a small gift - diapers or an outfit and a gift for the big brother/sister.
