Bridal showers are generally given by the bride’s honor attendant (a.k.a. “maid” or “matron” of honor), held about one month before the wedding and should be limited to only guests who have been (or will be) invited to the wedding. In some circles, it is not considered appropriate for the bride’s immediate family (mother or sister) to throw a shower for her. Other than that, there are so many options for bridal showers these days — everything from “Jack and Jill” showers that include the groom and other men to surprise showers just for the bride.
If you are ready to start planning a fun and memorable bridal shower, Web Baby Shower is pleased to provide this Bridal Shower Planning Guide to make it a cinch. If you are planning in advance we recommend setting aside three weeks for planning, sending invitations, and purchasing supplies, which means that ideally, you should start planning a bridal shower about 2 months before the wedding.
The Bridal Shower Planning Guide has these main pages to help you get organized:
- What’s Expected at a Bridal Shower?
- Bridal Shower Budget
- Creating a Bridal Shower Guest List
- Choosing a Date for a Bridal Shower
- Choosing a Location for a Bridal Shower
- Bridal Shower Themes
- Bridal Shower Invitations
- Bridal Shower Decorations
- Bridal Shower Games & Entertainment
