My sister is going through this right now, and it seems to be driving her crazy. She is planning a bridal shower for a good friend of hers from college who is getting married next month. Katie, my sister, wants to create a bridal shower invitation that will sound and look cute, and be something memorable for her friend to hang on to in the future, but is having trouble coming up with ideas. This really does happen a lot. Sometimes its hard finding the perfect invitation working for a shower, when you want to come up with something cute and your mind just sort of hits a brick wall so to speak. So, if you are planning a bridal shower, and need help with the invitation wording for your bridal shower, here are some great commonly used verses and poems to help you get started.
- John and Jane will soon have a wedding /Down the aisle is where they’re heading /Before they become husband and wife /Let’s shower them with things for their new life
- Jane’s wedding is only days away/Let’s help her relax before the big day
- They’ve bought the dress and ordered the cake /They’re anxious about the vows they’ll make /To help pass the time and shorten the wait /We’re having a shower and here is the date.
- Jane is getting married/Who would have thought?/Lets throw her a party/Before she ties the knot!
- Jane’s wedding is on the way/Let’s get her prepared for the big day!
- Jane’s all grown up/And giggling with glee/Please join us to honor/our sweet bride-to-be!
Of course, with any invitation wording for a shower, you will want to be sure to include the place, time and day, along with RSVP information. If you are having a couples shower, then your invitation wording for the shower needs to somehow indicate that it is for couples, and if a meal or snacks are being served. Invitation wording for showers should not be the most difficult part of planning a bridal shower for your friend, so take a deep breath, and remember to have fun with it.

While bridal showers have evolved by means of fun new games, themes, and even the possibility of co-ed bridal showers, one thing hasn’t changed, and that is the bridal shower cake. Of course, you need to have other bridal shower snacks as well as the cake, but the bridal shower cake remains unchanged. If you are throwing a bridal shower for a dear friend or family member, be sure not to let the bridal shower cake slip your mind. If you’re like me, I don’t like many kinds of cakes, and so the cake is really the last thing to enter my mind. If the bride is that way as well, not too excited about having cake, or it just doesn’t fit in very well with your theme, then there are always variations of bridal shower cakes that you can use or make yourself, and here are some of my favorites ideas for doing just that.

There is nothing quite like a bridal shower, having a group of ladies close to the bride all together at once celebrating an upcoming wedding, and the games you play at the bridal shower will help make everything more memorable for everyone involved. Having a list of bridal shower prepared will help everything to go smoothly. Be sure to keep in mind that there is no rule stating that you must have games at your bridal shower, but it will help your guests relax and start interacting if they are not already friends. There are bridal shower games for every age group, from the tame to the wild, and the game possibilities are practically endless. Here are some of my favorite games played at bridal showers. Personally, I prefer tamer bridal shower games as they are acceptable to every belief system, young and old, thus those are the ones I have listed below.
