Planning the perfect Bridal Shower

View our guide on Bridal Shower Invitation Etiquette and Wording

• Start by setting a date and time that works for the majority of the guests and the bride-to-be.

• Create a guest list and send out invitations.

• Decide on a theme or color scheme for the shower.

Themes:

• A traditional tea party theme with fancy teacups and saucers, and dainty finger sandwiches.

• A spa day theme with DIY manicures and facials.

• A kitchen shower theme, with cooking-themed games and a recipe card for the bride-to-be.

• A wine and cheese theme, with a wine tasting and cheese pairing.

• A book club theme, with a book exchange for the bride-to-be.

• A garden party theme, with outdoor games and a DIY flower crown station.

Venues:

• Host the shower at the bride-to-be's home.

• Rent a private room at a restaurant or tea house.

• Host the shower at a community center or park.

• Have the shower at a hotel and make a weekend getaway out of it.

Game Ideas:

• "Advice for the Bride-to-Be" cards, where guests can write down their best advice for the bride-to-be.

• "He Said, She Said" game, where guests have to guess which quotes were said by the bride-to-be and which were said by the groom-to-be.

• "How Well Do You Know the Bride-to-Be" quiz, where guests have to answer questions about the bride-to-be.

• "Guess the Celebrity Wedding" game, where guests have to match famous couples with their wedding photos.

• "Wedding Vow Mad Libs" game, where guests fill in the blanks to create silly wedding vows.

Remember, the most important thing is to make sure the bride-to-be feels special and loved. With a little bit of planning and creativity, you can throw an unforgettable bridal shower that she and all of her guests will love.
