After the engagement is announced and the date is set, one of the next steps is the bridal shower. Traditionally, the Maid of Honor is the one who plans the Bridal shower for the bride. Although it is often a surprise, the bridal shower can be planned with the bride being involved if you like. There are many preparations that go into the bridal shower such as the food, decorations, games, and beverages. One other thing that is often forgotten are the bridal shower favors. A must have for a well planned party to be complete!
Bridal shower favors are a way of thanking all the guests who attended the bridal shower, and showing appreciation to everyone who came to help celebrate. They can be small trinkets, or elaborately designed gifts that everyone can take home. When choosing your bridal shower favors, there is always the question of cost. How much is too much? How much is too little? You don’t want to go overboard, but you don’t want your guests to think you are cheap either.
