Hello everyone, I’m Nicky. It seems you might need some ideas for bridal shower games and activities. First, let me tell you a little bit about myself. Two months ago my best friend got hitched. I was inchange of hosting the brital shower. To be honest with you I had no idea what to do. What bridal shower food do you serve at a bridal shower. What bridal shower etiquette should be followed. I had no idea about any of it. The closer it got the more I began to feel nervous. People seemed to have so high expectations.

I decided to go online and do some research. Finding ideas on what to do was hard, not to say nearly impossible. I spent days searching for free bridal shower game ideas and printed a whole bunch out. But out of them all there was only a few that could be used, and they weren’t really that great. I felt like a total idiot, I though hosting a bridal shower would be easy and now I was feeling like I would not deliver at all. I tried the library, but they had no books that could help me. I felt like crying, seriously, I felt like crying over a bridal shower. Games for bridal shower seemed impossible to find.

I went online again. This time I found some wedding forum that had a subforum about bridal showers. A user had posted some questions that were close to mine. The answers were the same as I had found days earlier, until I got to page 5-6. Some girl had posted a link to an ebook that only focused on the best bridal shower games. I looked at the website and was a little sceptic. About 95% of me was sure that his book would probably just have the same halfway useless stuff that I had found free online. I ended up buying the book anyway. Yup, I was desperate. And thank god for that. The book turned out to be my saviour. It had eveything I needed and more.

The book was loaded with funny bridal shower games, printable bridal shower games and ideas for bridal showers. My only regret was that I had not found this book sooner. I had sleepless nights about my bridal shower problems. In the end it worked out great. The bridal shower was a great success (if I do say so myself), and my best friend really seems impressed by the whole thing. If you are interested you can check out the book here.

Bridal Shower Gift Ideas

Everyone wants to give the perfect bridal shower gift, but coming up with a unique bridal shower gift idea is not easy.
How well do you know the bride. This is really important. If you aren’t close with the bride you should stick to something traditional. Look for something nice from her bridal registry.
The last thing you want is to make the bride fell uncomfortable by giving her a gift that is too personal, if you don’t have a close relationship with her.
For a group of ants a gift should be something nice. Something like a dining set or a kitchen appliance from the bride’s registry.

Personal, embarrassing and funny
If you are tight with the bride and you get her humor it would be a good gift idea for bridal shower should be something crazy and funny. Something naughty that is guaranteed to embarrass and make all other guest laugh. If there is both a bridal shower and a bachelorette party if would be recommended to wait with these types of gifts until the mom and grandparents aren’t around.

Creative bridal shower gift ideas
If you can’t find anything that you think would be a great gift a gift certificate can be the solution. A Victoria’s Secret or another high end shop is always a good idea.
Another way to go is to find out what the bride and grooms favorite restaurant is and give a gift certificate for a “date night”.
A gift basket is also a good idea. If the couple is going on a sunny honeymoon, you can make a basket with the perfect gifts for the trip. Things like suntan lotion, beach towels, massage oils and a romantic CD.

Practical gift ideas for bridal shower
If you want to give a practical bridal gift that will not offend the bride you can make a housewife starter kit. This can be anything that everyone needs around the house. It could be a basket with cooking supplies, a cookbook and a aprin. This is a great gift for someone who is a friend of the mother-in-law or mother of the bride.

Another thing that had me worried was the wording for bridal shower invitation. I figured it would be pretty easy, but a couple of hours after I started did not have a single line that I was happy with. Lucky for me I found a cheap book that helped me get everything right fast. The book is great for bridal shower invitation wording ideas, bridal shower poems and it has a lot of samples.

What Should be Included on a Bridal Shower Invitation
A Bridal shower invitation should include the following.
Bride’s full name (and sometimes Groom’s)
Date Time Location
RSVP name and number Date to RSVP

You might also want to include.
Where the bride is registered
Theme of shower or gifts (garden shower, lingerie shower, etc.)
Time the bride is expected to arrive. (That way people know what time they absolutely must arrive by.)
If it is a surprise bridal shower, make sure that the invitation makes that clear.
