Planning A Bridal Shower

Planning a bridal shower and don't know where to start? Here are some ideas for you!

First, the bridal shower or wedding shower, is a party for the bride and her new home with her husband, usually thrown 4-6 weeks before the wedding. It is thrown to help the bride and groom get ready for their new home together. The party is usually thrown for the bride by either her maid of honor, the bridesmaids, a relative, or a friend.

The groom never used to attend, but it is more common to have the groom attend now. Normally, the party, would be all women, but again, nowadays many people will have a general wedding shower, in which all genders are invited. And, the number of people invited can range from just a few to hundreds. It should be up to your judgement as the planner, but all the while keeping the Bride and Groom-to-Be's best interests in mind, since it is after all, a party for them!
