| Hi Vicki and congratulations!
Lots of questions.....
(1) If you want to give the two mothers a gift....you could, but it's not mandatory.
(2) No, I would not give the 2 flower girls anything. You will present them with gifts at the rehearsal. The gifts you are giving now are in appreciation for the work the bridesmaids are doing for your shower.
(3) I would give them the baskets AFTER the other guests have left.
(4) No, you do not need to make a speech. And your MOH doesn't need to either, unless she really wants to. I have never been at a shower where someone gave a speech. However...
(5) Yes, it would be nice if she thanked everyone for coming and you could also....after all of the gift have been opened.
(6) I do think it would be nice if YOU introduced your MOH and the other bridesmaids.
(7) At all of the showers I have been to (unless everyone knows everyone....a small family shower), it would be nice for your MOH (after you have introduced her and the other bridesmaids) to ask everyone to say their name and how they know you OR the groom......."hi, my name is Diane, and I am the bride's cousin."
That's it! Have fun!  |
