Wait...Mom can't hold the shower?

It's been a long time etiquette rule that's been followed closely. Mom can't host the bridal shower. It must be the bridesmaids. However, in recent years this rule has shifted. Bridesmaids are so busy planning the bachelorette, buying dresses and paying for other expenses of being in the bridal party that also hosting another party can seem like a lot.

That's why it's ok for Mom to host the shower. Also many times, moms don't feel included enough. They just want something to do that will help benefit everyone. Mom hosting the shower can actually be one of the best decisions a bridal mom and the bridesmaids can make. It takes the pressure off the bridesmaids and also gives Mom a way to contribute that helps everyone. Hey, who doesn't love throwing a party?
