Pre wedding parties are always in. It is either organised by the couple themselves or their family and friends. One of the most awaited pre-wedding parties is the bridal shower. This is when the bride and her girl friends celebrate her last days as single.
To make a bridal shower special, you have to plan for it. Bridal showers are meant to be hilarious, fun and exciting. The bride and her girl friends look forward to a memorable night of fun and laughter. This is also the chance for the friends to offer something to the bride.
Bridal Shower: A Bit Of History
Bridal shower started long time ago. It was then called as the Jill shower. The stag party was then coined as the Jack shower. This party is celebrated to allow the bride to celebrate singlehood with her friends. Most of the time, the bridal shower also becomes a planning event. The friends give suggestions about the wedding or they help the bride find a good wedding dress.
The Bridal Shower Checklist
Here is a checklist in organising a bridal shower:
- The host. Decide on who will host the bridal shower. Normally, it is the maid of honour who organises and plans the bridal shower. But today, the maid of honour is joined by the bride’s family and other friends.
- The Venue. If you want to save money, you can pick a friend’s house to be the venue of the bridal shower. Just make sure that you choose a house with a large space. This way, you can enjoy games freely.
- The Date. When do you plan to have a bridal shower? A good rule of the thumb is to choose a date that is not too close to the wedding date. The weeks very close to the wedding date are already so busy. You wouldn’t want to bother everyone with the party because they will be very busy. Also if possible, hold the party on a weekend. This way, all your friends will be able to attend.
- The Guests. The bridal shower is actually a very private party. You should only invite the bride’s family and those friends who are really close to the bride.
- The Car. It is a good idea to rent a limousine or a Hummer to transport the friends from their homes to the bridal shower venue. There are several Limousine and Hummer Hire companies that offer affordable packages. It is also a good chance to spoil the bride and her friends on a limousine or Hummer ride.
So to recap, you need the following for the bridal shower: host, venue, date, guests and limousine or Hummer.
