Other Events You Won’t Forget: Bridal Shower

Plan that wedding, but don’t forget the other events you won’t forget: bridal shower style. Your bridal shower is a special moment when all of your loved ones wish to shower you in love and gifts. And beyond your birthdays and possibly graduation, it’s likely the first time that you’ve had a celebration explicitly in your honor. That calls for some one-of-a-kind planning! Find fun ways to incorporate your personality throughout your shower. Do you love brunch – then forgo the traditional afternoon timeframe and move the event to 10am with a charcuterie vendor in place to bring to life a waffle, fruit, and donut dream-spread. Do you like fun beverages? Then leading up to the event, create and taste some unique cocktails (or mocktails) to serve at the shower that you hand-picked. Catching on? This event is about YOU, and when your guests come to enjoy this special time they should leave saying, “That was so (enter your name here)!”

If you have family or friends lightening your load and planning the shower for you, then this is a great opportunity for you to add personal touches for your guests. Put a hand-written note at each seat telling each guest how thankful you are for them. Or have a photo booth at the shower and take a photo with each guest that you can later print and include in their thank-you card. Even if this sounds like a daunting task, trust us, after you have been properly showered you’re going to want a way to offer your warmest thanks, and this will have you covered.
