| What Could Be Expected In a BRIDAL SHOWER? | | Wife's niece is in town. She's a Filipino and have been in Canada for years. She found the man of her life and though they already got civilly married in the foreign land, they decided to have their church wedding here. And tomorrow will be the big day for both of them.Tonight (as by the time I have posted this, it is already 9 in the evening, Friday), her sister organized a Bridal Shower for her. And all the girls in the family is there to attend this, including my wife.So, I am here with the kids and made me think, "what could happen in the party?" I am just curious, of course, I am a man and I never had experienced what a Bridal Shower is, and even a stag party is unknown to me, what could be expected there? Does it need to have a stag party too for the groom when there is a Bridal Shower for the bride? | |
| | bridal shower tips | | My cousin is getting married very soon and we are planning of giving her a bridal shower that will be a memorable one. Right now, we are thinking of holding it in the pool but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Any tips from those of you who have already joined a bridal shower before? Thanks so much! | |

Salad
Breadsticks
Pasta with a red sauce
Meatballs
Clam linguine[b]Tables:[/b]

Old spaghetti sauce cans, will hold the center pieces of pasta, red and white roses
Red and white “plastic ware” will top off the red napkins Okay so now we have that all planned out I need some help with[b]gifts[/b] and[b]games[/b]. I was thinking it would be neat to put an Italian “twist” on traditional bridal games. The first game I was planning was the don’t say “wedding” or you lose your (usually a clothespin) game.[i][u]What could I use instead of a clothes pin[/u][/i]? I was also thinking about making the dress out of toilet paper but I don’t quite remember how that game works.[i][u]Do you[/u][/i]?[i][u]What other games can you think of?[/u][/i][u][i]What type of gifts could I give to go with this theme?[/i][/u]I really appreciate any suggestions!! | |
| | Bridal shower ideas! | | I'm seriously at a loss here. Me and my sister have to host my cousin's bridal shower. We need some serious help with ideas, though.Here's where I could use your input:
1.) Have you ever been to a bridal shower? (Or better yet: have you ever PLANNED one?) What were some of the good ideas that you saw?
2.) What are some ideas of games that we could play? And what kind of prizes could we offer?
3.) How many of her friends should we invite?
4.) How long do they usually last?
5.) What kind of decorations could we put up? (Inside OR outside the house!)ANY help would be EXTREMELY helpful! Thanks a lot, guys! | |

| | Have you ever had a surprised birthday party, bridal shower | | or any kind of surprise party? I had a surprise bridal shower. I wasn't really expecting a shower because I was getting married around a holiday and I knew people might be away. But my sister surprised me. It was a big surprise, because of the people that I knew and she didn't that she was able to contact.My husband gave me a surprise birthday party pool side. It was at his aunt's house and everyone came ready to jump into the pool, everyone except me, because I did not know there was going to be a party[em]happy[/em]
Have you ever had a surprise party, and were you really surprised? | |

What's a great gift to give to a Bride & Groom both on their first weddings in their early 30's with one child. I am looking to purchase something original not something that they will get two or three of and possibly hate or not need. I remember with my first wedding the bridal shower I got 3 of some food appliance it was horrible I first never used them and 2nd I gave them all away. I don't want to be part of that group that doesn't think about what they are buying I want to get something original that they will use in their new home. Any thoughts? | |

| Want to more about bridal shower... | | My friend is getting married next month. Her aunt, who lives in Houston, has come over to India. Now, she is giving a bridal shower party.

| | Update on Sister in laws Bridal shower. | | OK so we finally decided to get her something from the registry. I decided to get her the cake holder that she wanted. It was pretty nice cause the lid for the cake holder flips over and it doubles as a punch bowl so it's like 2 in 1 gifts. My sister in law gave me a ride to the shower because I didn't know where it was at. And we actually talked the whole way there. Mostly about the wedding but at least we were talking. My 2 little girls a going to be in her wedding so we talked about how she wanted me to do there hair. And the Bridal shower was very nice her fiancees sister threw it for her and it turned out really nice. She got a lot of the stuff she wanted and was very happy with it all. For those of you who told me to just suck it up and go to the shower and be civil with her. I did just that and I want to thank you for the advice. We have now been keeping in contact over the phone and have even set up a day after the wedding for us to have lunch together. So again thank you for responding to my other post about her and this wedding. That I personally can not wait until it's over but thats neither here nor there. We had fun at the shower and that is all that matters. | |
