You may be the maid of honor, a friend, or even the bride herself but the bridal shower needs to be planned and you are wondering how to go about doing it. Here are the steps to take to create the perfect bridal shower that the bride will enjoy and everyone will remember. Get Your Team Planning a bridal shower is a big deal and can be a bit overwhelming.
Stress while beneficial in emergency situations when a fight or flight instinct is needed, can have serious negative effects on your well-being. Your Health Stress certainly does contribute to the failing health aspects listed above but vacations provide a relief from stress and bring health benefits. Leisure activities such as vacations or weekend excursions contribute to higher emotional levels and less depression. Other health benefits include lower blood pressure and improved body mass index scores.
Venue and Timing - The first big decision that you need to make is where to hold the party. This could be a more intimate setting like someone's home which involves more work with the preparation and food but a comfortable feel. You could also opt to meet at an event space in a hotel or a restaurant which costs a big more but is easier to plan. After you have picked the venue you need to choose the time. Bridal showers can range between 2 weeks to 2 months before the wedding. Choose a date when most of the people on the guest list will be free to attend. When it comes to the time of day most bridal showers are in the early morning but choose whatever is most comfortable for the bride to be (remember that the shower is in her honor).
Everything was squared away and we all went back into the room. I started getting the kids ready for bed while my wife went into the bathroom to take a shower. As I pulled the shirt down on my daughter my wife came back out of the bathroom with an annoyed look on her face. She pulled me into show that there was a dirty used washcloth in the bathtub.
If you do not yet have kids the time can be spent with your spouse to develop said relationships and if you are single you can take the opportunity to pursue relationships with friends or immediate family members. While it is true that vacations can also bring on their own set of frustrations and stress the benefits of going outweigh any risks.
Drinks - Depending on where you are planning on holding the shower you may have to put more preparation for the food. If at a restaurant check the price per plate and options there. Decide if the guests will be covered or if they are expected to pay for themselves. If at home try and make sure the food and drinks fit with the theme and if you don't have the time to prepare all of the food yourself you can ask guests to help with certain items or make it more of a potluck.
Decoration - Think of the venue and what you will be decorating. This could include the buffet tables, gift table, and tables. Think of how you want to decorate these different areas with items such as lights, centerpieces, and markers. Make sure that your theme is cohesive throughout. Activities - Find some fun activities that you know the bride would enjoy that would be fun for everyone to participate in. Some of these different ideas could be a 'photobooth', have the girls write down questions or advice for the bride, a storytelling session, or fun group games. Usually the event is centered on one activity with smaller activities around it. The larger activity could be part of the theme like past memories, or personal secrets. Run the game ideas by the bride to check she is ok with them so no embarrassing moments occur.
Vacations are precious commodities that need to be used wisely. Whether you plan on flying to a hotel in Norwalk, CT; cruising in the Mediterranean, or just staying home over a weekend make sure to take advantage of the many benefits that a vacation offers.
