Give The Bride A Bridal Shower To Remember

By Elizabeth Turner

If you have the important honor of planning a bridal shower, or if you're just looking for ways of making your own shower as special as your wedding day is sure to be, plenty of preparation and an equal amount of creativity are the two most important things you'll need to make the event a success.

Planning Around a Theme

Having a theme shower, and also a theme wedding is becoming increasingly popular as it gives brides-to-be and couples a chance to truly express their personalities.

The time of year that the shower and wedding are taking place are usually the main factors that will dictate which themes would work the best. Besides the four seasons, bridal showers can also be planned around a specific holiday or event, or even a certain word such as love, happiness, and joy.

Some other bridal shower themes to consider include:

-An English tea party-Fancy tea cups, roses, an assortment of teas, tea sandwiches, and desserts such as scones and tea cakes will make for the perfect tea party themed bridal shower.

- Garden party: An outdoor party centered around flowers and plants is ideal for the spring bridal shower.

- Hawaiian Luau: Include grass skirts, leis and Hawaiian flowers along with luau type foods.

- Las Vegas: For a completely different twist on the usual bridal shower, have a Las Vegas themed event complete with card games, a roulette wheel and dice. Held in the early evening, this is a fun way to combine a bridal shower with a ladies night out.

- Pajama party: Have guests dress in their comfiest pajamas and serve lots of finger foods and snacks.

- Spa party: This works best for smaller groups. Pamper everyone and treat them to an afternoon of manicures, pedicures, massages, facials, and lots of relaxation.

Invitations and Shower Favors

Bridal shower invitations should include the following bits of information:

- Bride's full name - Date and time - Where the shower is being held - Who is hosting the shower - RSVP date and contact phone number - The theme, if any - Where the couple is registered - Maps and directions, if necessary

Shower favors are the perfect way for the bride-to-be to say thanks for coming and celebrating. Instead of the usual few pieces of candy wrapped in tulle and tied with color coordinated ribbon, take the time to think of something different that your guests will remember the occasion by. For example, if you were having a beach theme you could find little keychains that look starfish or sandals.

Bridal Shower Timeline

- Two months before: Set the budget, decide on the style or theme of the shower, set the date, choose and reserve the location, create a guest list, plan the menu, choose the games, delegate tasks to other members of the bridal party, purchase the invitations.

- One month before: Mail the invitations, order the cake, plan your menu and shopping lists, purchase the decorations and game prizes.

- One week before: Order the food, chairs, linens, and tableware if necessary, purchase the bride's gift and confirm reservations.

- One day before: Begin decorating, pick up the cake, wrap the bride's gift and game prizes, prepare street signs if needed, and prepare any food items that can be made in advance.

- The day of the shower: Arrange the food, drinks, finish any decorating, have a tablet handy to record a list of gifts received, and finally, relax and have a good time at the shower!
