Bridemaid
I am a bridesmaid in a wedding for a bride who is having 3 wedding showers. Am I supposed to take a gift to every shower?

Re: Bridemaid
Find something very inexpensive -- creativity rules -- and give that as a gift.
My favorite for-cheap shower gift: get a rolling pin and 20 one dollar bills -- take the dollar bills and tape them together widthwise; then tape the end of the row of dollar bills to the rolling pin.
Roll up; tie with a festive ribbon.

When I was a bridesmaid and a MOH, the shower was most of my gift. I also got a smaller gift - such as a personalized frame. You do not have to give a gift for each shower.
I went to a shower where this was given to the bride and it went right over her head. You could tell she thought it was really weird to tape money to a rolling pin. Don't forget to add a note that you are giving the bride some "dough" to go with the baking gear.
