Helpful Hints For Planning Your Bridal Shower

Written by Jeff Fain

The maid of honor and bridesmaids often handle the bridal shower for the bride to be. A bridal shower is a gift-giving celebratory event for a neophyte in the bridal business. In other words, it's a party for the bride-to-be. A neophyte, novice, or newborn bride needs these kinds of showers to see the extent that their girl friends will stick by their side during their lives. It's tough entering into a marriage with a guy. It might make you feel like you're losing your sense of identity and girls' friendships. A bridal shower is not just about gifts. It's about giving and receiving love with your closest female friends, relatives, and co-workers. This girl-time can't be interfered with or interrupted by the male component of the relationship. He has a bachelor party, and you have a bridal shower. That's just the way it is. Before you count your blessings, gifts, and friends, talk to the maid of honor about the list of friends she'll be inviting. She's designated to choose the invitations and you're supposed to tell her which friends to invite. Your maid of honor shouldn't miss anyone when she sends out bridal shower invitations.

Gifts are required of the guests, movies are watched, champagne is drunk, food is eaten, and a lot of laughter is there to go around for everybody. It's so fun to choose which friends you invite because no conflict or problems enter into your relationship then. Bridal shower invitations should be mailed at least 2 weeks before the proposed event. If necessary, send out the save the date cards way in advance. People need a little extra time to clear up their busy schedules and appointments to fit in your bridal shower.

Bridal shower invitations are really inexpensive because they're not as heavy or oddly-adorned as wedding invitations. They're really cheap too because people don't go to a whole lot of trouble to make them just perfect for everyone that sees them. They're supposed to get a point across so that everyone shows up. That's their purpose. Don't let the maid of honor forget to send out the most critical bridal shower invitations of your life. She should also handle the food, gift organization, and other surprises of the bridal shower's day and nighttime events. She's the main honcho in charge of the grand old shebang for all the friends, relatives, colleagues, co-workers, associates, college buddies, pales, high school friends, junior high chums, neighbors, in-laws, and other confidantes of the bride.
