ELIZABETH SCHEIBNER
SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS
Pre-wedding parties are just
one of the many perks of get-
ting married. Depending on the
size ofyour wedding and the
number of friends and relatives
who reside in the immediate
area, you will probably be invit-
ed to a number of showers and
parties in the months preceding
your wedding.
Usually someone in your
wedding party will offer to host
a party in your honor and will
ask for your thoughts and ideas
on how to celebrate. If you pre-
fer a couples shower to a
"ladies-only" gathering, this is
the time to speak up. Or if you
prefer an informal gathering of
close friends as opposed to
cocktails and dinner, let your
host know upfront.
Be sure to provide your host
with a complete list of the
guests you want to invite, in-
cluding their addresses and
phone numbers (for those who
fail to RSVP). Limit your guest
list to your closest friends and
relatives. You're not expected
to include everyone who is in-
vited to your wedding - nor is it
fair to expect your host to en-
tertain throngs of people.
WEDDING SHOWERS
Showers are typically held a
couple of weeks before the
wedding. While showers used
to be for the bride only, it's be-
come more commonplace to
include the groom and his
friends.
Couple showers tend to be
very different from the tradi-
tional bridal shower. For one
