Your Bridal Shower
Invitation
Bridal showers are an
important part of the wedding process. In simpler times, they helped
the bride obtain the gifts she would need to start her new life as a
wife. They were in essence gifts she would need throughout the
house.
Our culture tends to be
much less traditional these days. Now bridal showers are usually
planned around a theme. They are, basically, parties with a purpose.
Now and again the purpose is the more traditional, preparing the
bride to run a house of her own, and other times the purpose is
equipping her kitchen or preparing her for a life of camping trips
with her husband-to-be. No matter what the general objective of the
shower, the invitation is the most essential part, as it is what
guests will act in response to.
When you get ready to send out invitations, the first thing you must
consider is design. You have a few options in this area. First, you
could look at the wedding invitations the bride and groom are going
to send out. This would give you the chance to send out similar
invitations and stick with the general theme of the wedding. If, on
the other hand, your wedding shower has a theme of its own, you will
almost certainly want to choose an invitation that reflects that
theme.
You can be as innovative
as you like in this area. For example, if you are having a kitchen
shower, you could create an invitation that mimics a recipe card. If
you are having a beach party shower, you could create invitations
that look like little beach towels. You can either create your
themed wedding shower invitation yourself or you might look into
having someone create it for you. Many places, party stores and
such, have bridal shower invitations that are preprinted. You merely
fill in the necessary information. If you'd like to have something a
bit classier, you can look into having the bridal shower invitations
especially printed for your party.
Most printers have a
selection of invitations they would be enthusiastic to create for
your party. These tend to look a bit classier and more stylish. If
neither of these options meets your needs, you will have to create
the invitation yourself.
With the renewed interest
in hobbies like scrapbooking, though, this shouldn't be a difficult
process. Since so many people are involved in creative paper goods,
many hobby stores carry a large selection of creative papers,
scissors, stamps, and stickers to help you create the invitation of
your dreams. Most even have a section of paper that can be fed into
your home printer if you wish to computerize your text. For example,
if you want to create a beach party wedding shower, you might go to
the hobby store and choose a paper with a sea shell background.
Print out the bridal shower invitation wording, cut the edges with a
clam shell shaped scissor, and adorn with some beach chair stickers.
You all of a sudden have a much better invitation than you could
ever have ordered or purchased in a store.
The invitation design is crucial, but the bridal shower invitation
wording is just as significant. One of the most vital things on the
invitation is the name of the bride. You will also need to list the
date and time of your wedding shower. Furthermore, do not fail to
remember to list the place. You will need to list the person who
will be managing the RSVPs and their phone number. Listing a closing
date to reply to an RSVP is common. Two weeks preceding the shower
should give you enough time. You should also consider listing who
will be hosting the shower. If you wish, just list the names of the
hostesses. You could, though, list the hostess' titles instead of
the names. For example, if the hostess' are the bridesmaids, you
could just say something like -The bridesmaids of Jane Smith invite
you-.
In addition, it is vital
to list where the bride-to-be has registered for gifts so your
guests can get her something she actually requests or is in need of.
A normal wedding shower invitation wording would read something like
"Please join us for a bridal shower in honor of Jane Smith on
Saturday, June 30th at 4:00 p.m. at the Taylor Park Clubhouse, 1234
Any Street, Anyplace, Alabama."
Send your invitations out about one month before the shower, and you
will give the bride the best party she could hope for.
