Three Totally Not-Boring Themes For Your Next Bridal Shower
How to plan a honeymoon suite shower – and everyone says you need a theme. “Around the Clock”. “House and Garden.” Yawn!
There are not many times we are too stupid and girly in this world, so that a bridal shower should not be wasted. Make sure it’s really fun. It is easy — just think about what makes your wedding special, and let loose with the subject. Here are some ideas for organizing the charging of Noggin and are somewhat unique.
“Like High School – but better.”
Revive some great times by tipping your hat to the bride’s high school days. Look up all those slightly embarrassing hits from the year she graduated – let’s say the 80s. (Creating a gift CD of the same for all of your guests – they will secretly enjoy it when nobody else is around.) Yes, they still make banana clips! Pass them out, along with big, dangly inexpensive hoop earrings and bracelets loads of jelly (you remember? You carry about a hundred on each arm, a la vintage Madonna). Slather on the pink, blue and green eye shadow, nail varnish and metallic bright blue mascara. Play the soundtracks from Pretty in Pink and Sixteen Candles.
now for the games: segment a flashback classics like Madonna’s “Holiday”, in three or four CDs. Divide your guests into the same number of groups and ask them to come out with a dance routine to fit around their part of the melody. Bring them back together in 10 or 15 minutes to have their mini-masterpiece before a video camera up for the occasion mentioned tasks. Tape of routine in order. Give a prize for the best choreographers give (actually a price for all, be a good sport). Together, they have a music video that no one forgot created. With luck it will mysteriously show up at the reception.
Wine and Chocolate
Sometimes, when a number of vineyards in the wine country tour and you’re really happy with you “wine and chocolate “days taken. But you do not have to wait to win the jackpot – you can organize your own. Plan an easy afternoon of popular, just ask Drinking wines like Merlot and champagne, and each guest to a creative form of chocolate. Some of our favorite chocolate croissants, chocolate papaya crepes, chocolate and ginger, and yes, jalapeno brownies.
But do not stop eating – make it a real brothel. Pile much velvet drape pillow around the room, the walls with heavy fabric, burn a little incense. Set a soothing Moroccan music, and arrange a few flowers in plum colored pails or vases you’ve dressed with groovy gold fringe. Now pass out those beverages in glass flutes pretty, dropping a rose petal in each. Then dig! (Have doggie bags available for the god realm-out guests who want to enjoy the spoils later at home).
Occupational Hazard
are few things more flattering than a party with your friends in order to develop your job. After all, you spend every day out there, and what you do is probably pretty important to you. Is the bride a teacher? Hand out apple-shaped candles as favors. . . and place them in brown paper lunchbags. Give her a board eraser “Delete any grudges” after she’s married: spray paint the top gold or silver, and all have it with a Sharpie mark. Sew or glue together a quick clip-on or scarf for your dog’s collar that reads, “Teacher’s Pet”.
Is your bride a lawyer? Hire a Judge Judy impersonator (yes, they exist!) To make an ad. Ask each guest, “a short” – a gift of lingerie for the honeymoon Lacey accompanied by a personal note, to wish the bride all the best.
For more ideas for exciting Schauer
Christmas in July: City of bridal gifts under a big, Frou Frou artificial tree, the one the guest Grace had hung on. Serve iced eggnog and mocha-cinnamon smoothies. Everyone loves Christmas. . . especially if you had a break from it and not have to head over what to buy the boss.
Dancing Queen: Dress up in large, pouffy prom dresses from the past (you can find in any Thrift Store find), super-glam makeup, even tiaras. Lay on loads of body glitter. Head out en masse to your neighborhood restaurant or karaoke bar and toast the bride as she opens her gifts.
Cheesecake Party: Invite your guests, which is their favorite piece. Serve mini-cheesecakes in many different flavors (Baileys and orange, amaretto, chocolate fudge), and place a framed photo of their favorite “cheesecake” served alongside each plate, with a special label: “Brad Pitt Blue Berry”, “cream Mel de Menthe. “Get with the descriptions of invention. Borrow or rent are the largest espresso machine and ran to drink steaming coffee.
What ever you go with at the end, do not be afraid to be creative. The more you go through the book less and the more you think about what makes the bride special, the more fun your shower will be for everyone. P>
