What to ask your guests
Hosts usually want to know: The reply form always asks for each guest's name, yes, maybe or no, how many are coming and which parts of the day they will join. Add any of these as your own questions, as a choice or a short answer, and you get a count for each choice:
- Can you come?
- Any dietary needs for the menu
- A piece of advice or a favourite memory for the bride, read out on the day
When to send it
Hold the shower two to three months before the wedding and send the invitation four to six weeks ahead, so guests have time to buy from the registry.

Who hosts a bridal shower?
Usually the maid of honour, bridesmaids or a close relative, not the bride.
Should the registry be on the invitation?
Yes for a shower; that is where guests expect it.
Can I hide the page from the bride?
Yes. Only people with the link or the password can open it.
