Organizing the bridal shower is in your charge? Here's how you should do your plan of attack.
Find the bride's program, as discreetly as possible: the marriage ceremony, the rehearsal, other scheduled visits etc.; you must not interfere with them. It would be ideal for the bridal shower party to take place at least a couple of days before the big event, so that everybody can recover from drinking and partying an entire night. If you plan something more extensive, like a weekend by the sea or a mountain trip, you should do your best to schedule them as close to the wedding date as possible.
Do not ask the guests about their preference when it comes to the date and location for the bridal shower party. You will sink into an ocean of emails where each one proposes another thing. These details must remain in your charge, be firm in communicating them and look for other options only if 70% of the participants announce that it is absolutely impossible for them to reach the party.
Set up a budget. You need financial resources for food, drink and more.
Come with creative ideas. The traditional idea of having a stripper at the party is not comfortable for everyone, not to mention that it is a cliché. You have many other alternatives: a day at the spa, a night out, a themed party, a wine and painting Denver escape, a little adventure etc.
Ultimately, whatever you do, make it a surprise for the bride!
