I find this post to be very interesting. I've never heard of not having showers for seconds, and so on, and I've lived all over the country. We even had a shower for my aunt who got married a few months ago, but had been with her husband for 19 years.
But I'm going to throw a new twist into this...I'm a bridesmaid for one of my sorority sisters. Her aunt is throwing her a bridal shower and she wanted for the other bridesmaid (another sister) and I to throw her one with the chapter. Not all of the sisters are invited to the wedding, and I told the bride that I didn't feel comfortable making the sisters feel obligated to go to a shower and buy a present for someone who isn't even inviting them to the wedding. So, the few sisters that are invited are going to her aunt's shower. Plus, we have two other sisters who are engaged...if we throw a shower for one, we should do it for all (which can get expensive). I'm just curious to know if anyone agrees with me on this--that you don't join a fraternity or sorority so that you can have a huge shower...
