What was the best part about your bridal shower?

Question

I'm planning my sister's bridal shower and am not sure what to do. Anyone have ideas? We are a classy group so nothing trashy. My sister is very dainty and elegant and girly so I need some fun, memorable ideas! Thanks!

Answer 1

For me the best part of the shower thrown by my in laws was definitely the ending!  But the shower thrown by friends which was thrown out of love and was just a celebration and a good time, well, there were lots of good parts.

First, it was a surprise, so that was just wonderful!

Next, there were some fun little games, like everyone starting off wearing a couple of bobby pins and anytime someone said the words wedding, bride or groom, they would have to give up a pin and by the end of the night whoever had the most would win a little prize.

There was also a game involving love songs which was a name that tune type of thing.

And there was a cardboard picture frame that everyone signed with bits of marital advice and well wishes.  Even though I haven't put that up yet, I still love reading the things people wrote.

We didn't do any of that designing a wedding dress out of toilet paper, mine was more centered around good food (brie in puff pastry, assortments of cheeses and fruits, tea sandwiches, champagne punch, and wine followed by a beautiful mini wedding type cake) and a nice group of people who were all happy to celebrate with me.  With that combination, you really can't go wrong!

Hope it's a great day for your sister!
