EBridalShowers suggests that you recruit friends and family that are familiar with the bride to assist you in planning the shower so that you won’t be overwhelmed with planning duties. Once you’ve got your crew together, you now need to tailor your party to fit the bride’s tastes. According to Carisa Silvesan of Associated Content, everything from the guest list to her favorite colors must be considered when planning the bridal shower. Do also make sure that the date that you’ve chosen for the event doesn’t conflict with the guests or the bride.

With that said, three months is an ample amount of time for you to have everything ready without a hitch. It’ll give you time to create your own bridal shower invitations using high-end paper from a deluxe paper store such as Kate's Paperie, while snagging your party gift bags from your local dollar store. What’s more, you can stuff these goodie bags with our Yazzie & Co. stylish bridal tees – party favors that both the bride and her guests will surely enjoy! In addition, you can purchase a delicious sheet cake from your local supermarket and have it personalized for the party. That way, you don’t have to slave over a hot oven, nor spend beaucoup bucks for a fancy cake. Tasty hors d’oeuvres and refreshing drinks are just the thing to spice up this bridal shower without going overboard with the cuisine and the spending.

If you’re worried about spending big on a bridal shower locale, take EBridalShowers up on their suggestion by considering having it at a relative or friend’s beautiful garden or home. If you prefer to not travel back and forth between places, you can always have the bridal shower at your home. Also incorporate the bride’s taste in music and her favorite colors into the event by using your music collection and using decorations that can be found at your local dollar store. According to EBridalShowers, you can pick and choose inexpensive flowers to spruce up your locale so that it’ll be able to glow with that special touch.
