Bridal Shower Ideas

Bridal shower- A gift giving ceremony organized for the bride to be before her wedding. Generally the bridal shower party is organized by the bridesmaid and close friends but now days even the in-laws of the brides have started to organize bridal shower for the lovely bride.

Being the bridesmaid it your duty to make this day the best and the most memorable day of her life . to help you in this I have few ideas that might come handy while organizing the bridal shower.

One can always go in for various fun themes like Hawaiiian  theme or Caribbean theme but I personally like a classy and elegant flavor in the party. Going in for some solid color theme or any floral theme

Classic Pink theme

A particular color theme is very simple but it should be carefully implemented as over doing it can ruin the complete look of the party. A simply classic pink theme looks very feminine  and nice. Having a pink theme doesn’t mean we put everything pink, for nice look we compliment pink by combining it with a base color like white.

Decoration:

Room decoration:

For the room decoration pink nice pink and white balloons and crape paper.

Table decoration:

For the table pick a either a solid white color table cloth or a very light soft pink table cloth and put up a nice centerpiece and add on some ribbon detailing like a thin ribbon bow on d spoons.

with a little creativity these curling ribbons can also be used for adding detailing to your decorations

Table ware:

Drink Glasses:

For serving drinks to your guests use these nice clear glasses which look elegant and gives a nice classic feel.

Cutlery:

Use nice pink color plates ,glasses, napkins, spoons and forks for serving the lunch to your guests.

To reduce the pain of collecting all the above things I found this kit which provides you with most of the things.

Cosmic black and white theme

My favorite theme. Since black and white are my favorite colors and they look very elegant and classic at the same time.

Decoration

Under this theme put on nice printed balloons and tie them with curling ribbons  as plain black and white gives it a dull look to the decorations. With this color scheme not much of decorations should be done.

Table decoration:

As above idea u can have spoons with ribbon bow on them and for the centerpiece keep a glass with white flower sitting.

Table ware:

For serving drinks go for these clear glasses.

Cutlery

For the cutlery go for nice elegant plates and glasses.

Nobody wants their guest to leave soon. If they do then its obvious your party could not make them stick to their seats. So for making your party a hit take the help of few interesting games.

Games

The Gist: A way to put the bride in the hot seat.

How to Play: Before the bridal shower, interview the groom and ask him questions about the bride and their relationship: "Where was your first kiss?" "What's his most annoying habit?" Then at the shower, ask the bride the same questions and see if she can answer correctly. To get the full effect, record video footage of the groom's answers and play back his responses to each question for everyone to see and hear (allow a pause between questions.)

The Gist: A just-for-fun idea for a lingerie shower

How to Play: On the invites, ask each guest to bring underwear or lingerie gifts that matches their personality and style. Hang a clothesline across the room and have everyone hang their underwear on as they arrive. The bride-to-be then has to guess who each lingerie gift is from. At the end of the day, she goes home with a new panty wardrobe!

The Gist: It's the purse version of scavenger hunt

How to Play: Before the shower, create a list of standard items you might have in your purse -- start with the basics (a compact, credit cards, keys) and work your way up to more random or risqué objects (condoms, dog treats). The host calls out the items on the list and the first guest to pull the object from their purse wins a small prize, We love the idea of giving out the bride's favorite things, like books or movies, beauty products or baked goods.
