Most of my family and many of my close girlfriends live on the west coast, so MOH and I have been talking about doing my shower at my mom's house in St. Pete. However, there's a cluster of gals whom I love dearly over here, and I don't think they'd be able to make it over to St. Pete. Makes me kinda sad. I don't necessarily want two showers, but I would love to get to spend some time with those girls before the wedding, too. (It's maybe 6 gals.) I don't want to bring it up with any of them, though, because I don't want to sound like I want them to throw me a shower or that I expect them to bring gifts if we do lunch or something one day before the wedding. Any thoughts?
