So I'm hearing a lot about couples showers VS bridal showers... is there any difference other than my fiance gets to be present at a couple's shower? I like the idea of having a bridal shower cuz then things can be pink and girly and my friends can get me lingerie (which should be a surprise to him on the honeymoon anyway! lol), but is there a huge difference between the two? I think he's under the impression that bridal shower gifts are for me only and couple's shower gifts are for the two of us.
Next question.. I really really really want to go to a spa as part of my bachelorette party. (I'm saying this now as if my wedding is in three weeks, haha.) I know not all of my bridesmaids, friends would be able to afford or even want to go to the spa with me, so I wouldn't want to push that on anyone to do. Now, I know the bridal/couples shower gets put on for me, but what about the bachelorette party? Is this something that I get involved in? I don't care what's traditionally done cuz I think this is a tradition that can be bypassed. But would it be frowned upon if I were to say that I wanted to go to this spa and then later at night after the spa, we could all go out wherever and have the actual bachelorette party? Whoever wanted to go to the spa with me could.. I mean, I wouldn't go unless a few other girls went with me.
