Bridal Shower

Expect everyone to be hugging you asking for pictures with them and lots of fun!! They’ll ask you details of three wedding and if your excited. And heck yes wear a cute white dress!! Il

View Quoted Comment Oh I didn’t even think about the hugging, you’re right though. I’m going to have to figure out how to prepare myself for this, I’m not a hugger lol.

You can wear whatever you want! Personally, I think brides go overboard wearing white to every single wedding event - if that's what you want to wear go for it! But by no means is that a requirement. Sometimes there are fun games (one popular one is making bridal gowns out of toilet paper ), usually opening gifts, a light meal or desserts, and just socializing and celebrating your upcoming wedding! A gift to the host isn't mandatory, but I would say a sincere note of thanks afterwards is proper etiquette, and if you choose to also give her a small gift that's always a nice gesture.

Most of the ones Ive attended theres hugging, congratulations, gifts, games, food, if the crowd calls for it drinking. Just a tip, take a notebook and pen and assign someone (usually a bridesmaid, mother or sister) to write down who gives you what gifts. That way when you go to write your thank you cards its all listed out for you.

I had to host and plan my own. It went a lot faster than expected and 80% bailed before the games were over I suggest trying to relax and go with the flow as hard as that is.
