What is the Bridal Shower?

There are lots of celebrations that coincide with the actual wedding. The bridal shower is one of those events that is associated with the wedding but serves another purpose. The bridal shower is planned to celebrate exclusively the bride-to-be. 

Typically this event is attended by women who are close to the bride. Bridal showers usually happen sometime in the mid-morning into the afternoon. Guests are expected to bring gifts to the bride so that she can set up her new home with her future husband.

Things such as kitchen items, lingerie, jewelry, or other homemaking items are all common bridal shower gifts. 

 

Who Hosts the Bridal Shower?

Typically the maid of honor hosts the bridal shower. There are so many other responsibilities that she has to manage, such as dress shopping, helping the bride, and also bridal shower planning. Perhaps this is the most important responsibility that the maid of honor has, as it will be a very special moment for the bride. 

 

Final Thoughts

Remember that planning an occasion like this will take weeks to months, and depending on your relationship with the bride, you may want to get her opinion on themes and decorations. Have fun picking out your bridal shower decor!
