The Bride-to-be is eagerly awaiting her most special day!

Planning a bridal shower is a momentous and joyous occasion for any bride. Surrounded by close family and friends, the celebration becomes even more special. A key to creating the perfect bridal shower is paying attention to detail and capturing the bride's unique style. In this blog, I’ll introduce you to the three “Makes” for setting up that special day!

1. Make it Personalized 

A bridal shower should be a more personalized celebration focusing on special touches to make it hers. This can be incorporated within the smallest details but will create those lasting memories. This can be done by creating a custom playlist of all her favorite songs playing in the background. Another fun way to make it more personalized is by creating a photo collage wall of all her favorite memories with friends, family, and husband-to-be.

Now this third idea is a must, you should definitely include the bride's favorite food! Food is obviously an important part of any kind of celebration and also part of the reason why people show up in the first place. What better way to show the bride some love than to have all of her favorite dishes?

2. Make Sure Everyone is Having Fun!

Nothing is more frustrating than hosting a beautifully planned party where guests seem bored and distracted and constantly check their phones. You definitely don’t want that kind of vibe for a bridal shower. Everyone, especially the bride, should be having a fantastic time!

A great interactive activity to keep guests engaged is a bouquet flower bar. Guests can create personalized bouquets using a variety of flowers and greenery; the best part is, they get to take their creations home as memorable keepsakes!

Another fun activity is a game I like to call “Pass the Bouquet.” Similar to musical chairs, guests pass around a bouquet while music plays. When the music stops, the person holding the bouquet is out. The last person standing wins a fun prize!     

3. Make it Memorable

Capture unforgettable moments with a touch of nostalgia by using disposable cameras! Skip the phone pics and place disposable cameras with fun props on tables for your guests to enjoy. Once the photos are developed, the bride can create a one-of-a-kind album from her bridal shower, filled with candid memories.
