Would you say it is proper etiquette to have the groom at the bridal shower?

I don't think it is, but a couple of people I know that are guys have gone to the bridal shower in the past...Anyway just wondering what your opinion is on this.
oh, it's not me getting married. just someone in the family. to be honest i think it is a little feminine to sit there and chat with a bunch of women, and the groom being the only guy. though it seems like a more common thing nowadays.
 
Often I have seen the groom show up towards the end of the shower. Many times he helps open gifts to the couple. Unless it is a Jack and Jill shower, the groom shouldn't be present for the entire thing, but I think it's perfectly ok to have him come towards the end. Besides, after all those gifts, the bride will need help loading up her car!
 
My then fiance put in a token appearance and left. we share a lot of friends and he is a very sociable guy. I think it would depend on the type of bridal shower you have. I can't see most guys sticking around for a spa day :)
 
Bridal showers can be co-ed. Traditionally, they're ladies only, but there co-ed ones are fine too, so long as all guests now that it's co-ed so that there are no surprises.
