Baby Shower - Opinion

Mrs. Sparky • 💍 | 👩👧 | 👶 1.20.19

So little background.....my soon to he husband is 18 years older than me. Our son is his first child! (He is last to carry his name, I am just over the moon that we will have a son!) About me? I have two daughters who are 8 and 11 from my previous marriage so obviously we have nothing left over lol

We are getting married September 15th....we didn't register anywhere and just said if you're thinking of giving a gift, a giftcard for our baby boy would make our day (not exact wording)

We are due January 27. 2019....When do you have a baby shower? Is a baby shower even appropriate? I thought for his family and friends it would be since this is his little miracle baby at 48 LOL but I am secon guessing the idea since all the same people are at our wedding?

Thoughts?
