On some occasions there is a mixed bridal shower, but if that is not announced in the bridal shower then no, the groom should stay away from the bridal shower and only be there at the end of the bridal shower to pick up his bride to be after the shower is over.
For a bridal shower, gifts that you can give can range from clothing to household tools and the perfect site to get those things range from Macy's, Sears, JCPenny, or Bed Bath and Beyond.
Some neat bridal shower gift ideas are glass beverage jar with stand and add various fruits so that you can see it. Plates with the names of the soon to be married on display, and robes with their names carved on them.
A recipe box would be a nice gift. You also could give a rotisserie.
Unique bridal shower favors can be found or made at a variety of prices. Bubble bath sets, pedicure kits, personalized wine glasses or the new couples favorite sweet treat are just a few options.
