subject: Exciting Bridal Shower Fun Made Possible With Bridal Shower Invitations And Bridal Shower Games [print this page] A beautifully planned bridal shower is a great experience for honoring the bride to be with this once in a lifetime event. And no bridal shower would be truly complete without their fair and beautiful share of bridal shower games and bridal shower invitations.
A bridal shower is, in many ways, the ultimate girls night out; a fun and festive opportunity for longtime guests to get together and pay light-hearted homage to one of their own. Also keep in mind, though, that a bridal shower generally does not equate a bachelorette party. As the shower is a party that will likely be attended by the mother, aunts and grandmothers of the bride to be, this is not the place for strippers, hard liquor, inappropriate jokes, or 'bad taste' bridal shower games.
Most hostesses will find that playing traditional bridal shower games will be very popular. For this reason, bridal shower games and other activities should be very tasteful and appropriate for everyone invited. There Goes the Bride, for example, is a game that challenges guests to come up with their most special memory of the bride to be; the one story or anecdote by which they will always remember her. Maybe it was her senior dance recital, where she hoofed it like a prima ballerina, or the senior class trip, where she kept everybody entertained with her jokes and impressions. Or maybe it was the time she took a big bonus she had earned at work and gave it to charity. The bride can award party prizes according to the funniest, most touching and best told stories; yet she will be the real winner, as she will realize just how much her friends and relatives love and appreciate her.
Bridal shower invitations, for example, should be tiny pictures of beauty and elegance. Again, save the beefcake invitations for the bachelorette party; instead opt for a photo or rendering of a lovely bride in white; or perhaps of a bridal bouquet brimming with roses, lilies or carnations. A paper lace floral print invitation also would work, as would a pink or lavender invite with sparkling gold borders. Additionally, the bridal shower invitations that are chosen for this party should be beautifully designed and one that the bride to be wants to add to her keepsake books.
