I don't live near home so I knew when my shower was and was able to be ready for it but it was nice that I didn't know where it was or who was going to be there or what the plan for the day was going to be - I loved it and it was such a nice day.
Either way it is a wonderful way to spend time with your friends and family.
It's not a surprise if you know about it and they're discussing anything with you. Most brides are fully aware of their showers and they are not surprises.
I told my MOH to at least let me know what month it will be in and maybe the week too..lol. Just so that I wont plan anything around that time and that I can also look good for my own party! I love surprises but not when there will be alot of people there waiting for me and im in my pj's or something, at least it will all be women if anything, haha
Well see my brides dont full on discuss on how its gonna be, which month.. They were just trying to feel me out. I mean come on.. the closer it gets to the wedding the more im pre cautions about being invited anywhere.. So i guess i might as well just know the date and not know who, how etc.. things are gonna be... Thanks ladies
I definitely wouldn't want it to be a surprise! I'm really looking forward to finding cute clothes to wear, and picking out gifts for the hostesses, etc. I vote no surprise!
I wouldnt want it to be a surprise - especially since I tend to plan things in advance. What if I wouldve made plans the day of my shower? Plus I bought a dress for my shower and wanted to wear it, Id be sad if I showed up somewhere in jeans.
by the way, I moved this to Parties for you :)
My girls asked me to meet up with them last weekend, so we could discuss my bridal party. They wanted to make sure I was free that day (good thing, as I'd be out of town on the original date they chose!) and run some game/theme ideas by me to make sure it was stuff I'd enjoy. It was sweet--I'm glad I know a little about what's going on so I can plan ahead. They'll be meeting and emailing without me to plan the rest!
I voted no I'm the type that likes to make schedules and stuff like that.
On the other hand, MOB thinks it should be a surprise, but she's kinda old fashioned.
I want a bridal shower. If it's a surprise how do I know I'm getting one or not? At this point it looks like MOB is going to host it. She doesn't really get along with my MOH so I don't even know for sure what to do.
i wouldn't want it to be a surprise, especially because you're worried about looking nice for it. i wouldn't want my guests to have to wait for me to go home and change and make myself up. we tried to surprise my friend for her shower. she ended up having a test on that day, and we were doing everything to try to get her to reschedule it, which definitely clued her in that it was her shower day! i think it's just easier to know.
Thank you @naangel55 for moving it for me.. you know how it is when you are a newbee.. =)
Thank you all for you opinion! =)

Hi ladies, I had a question.. was not exactly sre which category this would go to, so decided to put it in favor. So my brides mates are planning a bridal shower for me, but they dont know if they should do it as a surprise or not. I told them i'm not sure which is better. If its a surprise i would want them to give me some time to make myself look good, especially if they want me to try the langerie on. So that way i will have to leave the party to take a shower and get dressed. If its not surprise well i guess its not a surpise.. I dont know.. im confused.. help please!!
If you are having, or had a bridal shower which do you think is better surprise or not??
