Bridal Shower Favor Ideas

By Erin Montgomery

You can find good decent bridal shower favor ideas just about anywhere, which is not much of a surprise because there is a huge industry dedicated to them. If you want to make the favors more memorable, you are going to have to put more creativity and care into the ones that you decide to give out. But remember: the more effort you put into it, the happier the bride will be.

If you are thinking about the favors, chance are you are the one planning the bridal shower. As with anything else wedding-related everything needs to be just right. Shower favors are not a must, but they can really bring the whole event together and make it a night to truly remember. Thinking of special and unique bridal shower favors may seem difficult at first, but if you take into account the shower's theme and the bride's likes and dislikes it should be a little bit easier.

A very easy way to tie everything in is consider the theme of the shower and look for cute, yet practical miniature items that fit the theme. For example, if the bride loves to have her nails done, a miniature novelty manicure set would be perfect for her, and the rest of the guests will likely love it as well. Giving out small shoe-shaped bottle openers to take home along with small bottles of champagne to each guest to drink at the party would be a cute and unique way to handle the favors as well.

Not all bridal showers have a theme, and this one might not either. Really think about what everyone will enjoy, as there are sure to be tons of ideas that will work with that logic. Any customized items are also appreciated, though if you choose to go that route you will have to get the names of all of the guests attending.

If the bridal shower is very light-hearted then there are plenty of favors to give out as well. Small cute, but mature, toys are always great. As are apparel accessories.

No matter what you choose to give the guests and the bride, be sure that you do not make the shower seem like the main event is all your hard planning work. The bride-to-be is the guest of honor and the party is for her, so shower her with extra party favors to make her feel special. Weddings are one of the most significant and memorable events in any one person's life, so even make the bridal shower something magical.

You may have all sorts of favor ideas running through your head, if so stop and consider the party budget. Will it all fit within the budget? Will it all fit the theme or make the event something truly special? Be sure not to go overboard with the favors. You may have thousands of bridal shower favor ideas, so choose wisely. The bride-to-be will be that much happier if you put some true thought and love into her celebration. - 29955
