Bridal Shower Checklist

Now that you've found the perfect venue for your event, it's time to start planning the details. To help you out, we've put together a bridal shower checklist to make sure you don't forget anything important.

Send out invitations

Make sure to give guests plenty of notice so they can clear their calendars. We recommend sending out invitations 4-6 weeks in advance.

Confirm the venue

Once you've decided on an inviting space for your small or large event, make sure to confirm your booking and send through any deposit that may be required. Popular venues tend to fill up quickly, especially on weekends, so it is important to secure your spot as soon as possible. Reach out to the venue to discuss your needs and requirements for the bridal shower, such as guest count, catering options, and any decoration restrictions. Be sure to clarify whether there are specific time slots available for your celebration.

Organise catering

If you're having your event at a restaurant or cafe, make sure to organise your food and drinks in advance. If you're having your event at a function space, you may need to organise your own catering. From seasonal produce to gourmet treats, selecting a menu that reflects the bride’s style and taste is essential.

Organise entertainment

If you're looking to add some extra fun to your bridal shower, why not organise some entertainment? This could include anything from hiring a photo booth to organising a dance class.

Decoration

Don't forget to add some special touches to your venue with some decorations. This could include balloon backdrops, floral arrangements, banners or anything else you can think of.

Photographs

Make sure to capture the memories of your event with some photographs. This could include hiring a photographer or setting up a photo booth.

Favours

Send your guests home with a special memento of your event with some personalised favours. This could be anything from a scented candle to a mini bottle of champagne.

Bridal Shower FAQs

1. What is the best time of day to host a bridal shower?

The best time of day to host a bridal shower is typically late morning or early afternoon, around 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. This allows guests to enjoy a leisurely brunch or lunch and provides plenty of time for games, gifts, and socialising.

2. Who should host the bridal shower?

Traditionally, a close friend or family member of the bride hosts the bridal shower. However, it’s becoming increasingly common for the bride to have a say in the planning process or even co-host the event with a friend.

3. When should the bridal shower be held?

Bridal showers are typically held one to three months before the wedding. This timing allows the bride to relax and enjoy the celebration without feeling overwhelmed by last-minute wedding preparations.

4. Should men be invited to the bridal shower?

While bridal showers have traditionally been women-only events, co-ed bridal showers are becoming more popular. It’s entirely up to the host and the bride to decide whether they’d like to include men in the celebration.

5. What activities should be included in a bridal shower?

Popular bridal shower activities include games, gift opening, and a special moment for guests to share advice or well wishes for the bride. Other options include a DIY craft station, a photo booth, or a memory book where guests can leave messages for the bride. Your private parties can be enhanced with unique and thoughtful activities that cater to the bride's personality and interests.
