dirty shower - gift help!

Hi ladies,

I am attending a dirty shower tomorrow, being held before the bachelorette party. We have been asked to bring a pair of panties, and the bride to be has to guess who brought them.

I have never been to any thing like this. The mother of the bride is very classy, and will be in attendance, so I do not want to offend her family. Is it lame to get a pretty pair vs a raunchy pair? Or do you think raunch is what I am supposed to get here?? Sorry.. silly questions! :) Thanks ladies!!

Re: dirty shower - gift help!

  • Honestly, the bride is more likely to actually wear a pretty pair, as opposed to leather crotchless panties, KWIM? I'd go with pretty; you can still get lacy and sexy w/o being raunchy. Plus, I'd want to keep the bride's embarrassment level as low as possible since there will be parent(s) in attendance.
  • That's completely what I was thinking - but I didn't want to be the lame-o who didn't understand what I was supposed to do! :)
  • If the bride is supposed to guess who brought which pair, I would go for something the bride would assume you would pick/bring. Is there a favorite color you're known for (like, were your wedding colors purple and white? Find a purple and white pair), or some silly joke you share (inside joke about penguins? Find some with penguins)? That way it's cute/fun rather than totally embarassing.

  • I just went to a bridal shower like this & it was totally fun - not dirty/embarrassing at all.  just find something fun/cute or sexy/lacey & you are all set!!

  • Ditto whoever said bring a pair that's easier for her to guess it's you who bought them.  But don't get too personal--you don't want her thinking of you every time she puts on (or takes off) her undies!
