Theme Thursdays – Bridal Showers!

It’s time to treat the bride to a stress free day and celebrate ‘her’ before she becomes a missus!  Bridal showers are typically for friends and family of all ages to unite and have (innocent) fun; saving all the mischievous antics for her bachelorette away from grandma’s and the in-laws eyes!

As a guideline, these gatherings should be about four hours with enough time to eat, enjoy some activities and of course, open the presents!  Here are some ideas to entertain the taste of all brides:

For the foodie bride, have a brunch, dinner or tea party with a tasting element or interactive activity such as baking or making your own cocktails.

Revive the wedding entourage with a spa and beauty shower.  There are some great treatments to do at home, however for a more comfy and cozy touch, you can hire a masseuse and manicurist to the hostess’ home.  Another idea would be to have the guests bring "Spa-themed" gifts.  The bride I'm sure will love that!  As a thank you, the guests can leave the celebration with Spa treats of their own.
