- No you do not need to send a thank you note for hosting a large gathering, but phoning and acknowledging the thank you note would be a good idea.
Anyone who brought Hostess gifts should be sent a Thank You card.

Can you take a guest to a wedding shower?
* If a guest should be from out of town then you could call the person giving the wedding shower and ask them if it would be alright to bring your guest. If your friend has not been formerly invited to the wedding shower then they shouldn't go. If she is a close friend of the brides and you feel a mistake has been made and she has been over looked then you should speak to the hostess by phone regarding your friend.
Can you bring a baby to a baby shower?
(Hopefully not the baby ,whom is shower is for.) I would ask the hostess what she thinks. Babies do tend to disrupt an adult party, but everybody likes to see them. If you have no possible baby-sitter , perhaps you should make only a brief appearance at the shower. I repeat, ask the hostess-- it all depends on what kind of party she is planning and how you fit into the guest list.
What is a baby shower keepsake?
Hi there, a baby shower keepsake is typically a gift the hostess gives to her guests who attended her baby shower. Although it's for her adult guest, it is typically baby themed
What is a presentation bridal shower?
It is my understanding is that this type of Bridal Shower is when the gifts are not wrapped. The Guest bring the gift unwrapped with perhaps a bow and the card. The gifts are then laid out on a table and the future bride can just look them over, open the cards and then just spend the time with the guests.
Should children be invited to bridal showers?
If they are related to the bride or if they are in the bridal party (flower girl). When in doubt, ask the bride her preference; she should be supplying the guest list. Generally, children should be kept at a minimum unless they fit in the above categories. You can always have a separate room / party for them while the shower is taking place; then when the meal is served; bring them out.
What is a woman who entertains guest called?

Should bride help plan her bridal shower?
It is traditional for the bride not to be involved in planning her own bridal shower. Typically, the maid of honor and bridesmaids take on the responsibility of organizing the shower as a special surprise for the bride. However, if the bride wishes to be involved in the planning process, it is ultimately up to her and her personal preferences.
If you are the guest of honor at a dinner party do you take a hostess gift?
No you do not take a gift to a dinner party when you are a guest of honor. You are the focus point of the dinner party. However, after the event you should send a note of thanks to the hostess.
Does a hostess always have to do what the guest wants even if it involves putting the hostess in a smoking environment when the hostess is allergic?
Although I highly doubt you are actually allergic to cigarette smoke you may be bothered by it as are many folks. As a hostess you should probably create a smoking area outside for your guests that smoke but you are under no obligation to do so. As the hostess you are never obligated to do something simply because a guest wants it. What if the guest wanted to play strip poker or do drugs?
Can you invite guests to bridal shower if they are not invited to the wedding due to venue constraints?
You can, of course, but a great deal of tact will be required since it's only human nature for those not invited to the wedding to wonder how you reached the decision to invite others and not them.On the other hand, there could be resentment if you invite friends to neither the shower nor the wedding!One idea might be to make it a special shower, maybe with champagne and good finger food, and explain privately to each person not invited to the wedding how bad you feel at not being able to fit everybody in, but there simply isn't room.Perhaps you could give them, privately again, a small gift - a keepsake - of the wedding and suggest that once you're settled following the honeymoon, you'll give a simple, intimate party just for them. Do this before the wedding, otherwise it might appear to some that you feel they're upset and are simply trying to pacify them.
Why at wedding showers do they ask you to bring a small kitchen gadget in addition to your gift from the registry?
Asking a guest who is already giving a gift at a wedding shower to bring a small kitchen gadget in addition is a very odd request and not the norm. Perhaps the hostess is thinking of some sort of game to play and the bride to be gets to keep the kitchen gadgets after the game is over. If this was the case then the hostess should have communicated to the guests this would be part of a game played at the shower. If this is not the case then it is very rude for the hostess to ask any guest to buy a small kitchen gadget in addition to a gift already bought for the bride to be.
