Secrets of a successful bridal shower
Posted on May 13th, 2009 by Margaret. Filed under Bridesmaids, bridal shower.
This weekend I threw a wine tasting and french-themed bridal shower for my childhood best friend, with about 15 guests in attendance. Here are five secrets to the success of this bridal shower:
1) Have at least two good entree options. We got a casserole and a large savory tart and everybody raved!
2) Offer healthy food options like a salad and fruit. Many women are very health or waistline-conscious!
3) Serve plenty of wine or alcohol. Nothing gets conversation flowing like a little bit of liquid courage.
4) If you’re going to play a bridal shower game, the newlywed game is always a big hit!
5) Be prepared for your guests to stay 6-7 hours! That’s the advantage of having a bridal shower at home… because you definitely can’t stay at a restaurant for very long before they kick you out!
