Planning a happy event such as a wedding shower should be
easy and fun for everyone involved. The secret recipe for a successful event is
a streamlined process that involves two very important ingredients: inspiration
and organization. It is important to allow plenty of time to envision your
party mood and then plan coordinate and create all the details that will make
it perfect. Whether it’s a ladies only or coed it is important to consider
several things.
1) Remember it is all about the bride.
Start by thinking about the bride that is being honored and create an event
that will suit her style and personality. If it is a coed shower design the
event to reflect the couples love and their style
2) Remember to use the
theme that is chosen throughout the party. Try and incorporate
it in the invitations, color choices and the food and drink that are served. If
the is relatively simple and not about having a themed event make the bride and
groom the theme of the event. A great idea would be incorporating pictures of
the couple from over the years.
3) Never overdo it.
Too much of something can be a bad thing. Less is nearly always more. For a
perfectly polished look, stick to no more than three colors in your party décor
or space. Take for example floral centerpieces. Use a maximum of four
variations of flowers in each vase.
4) Be in the clear.
Take a look at the space where the shower is being held and ensure that
there is ample room for guests to mingle
5) Pack a punch with focused
décor: Be sure to select a few key areas to decorate with strong
visual effect. A great focal point at a shower could be the buffet table or
even the centerpieces that are used to decorate tables.
6) Be prepared: Make sure there is enough of everything needed
to execute the shower, ie: food, glasses plates and napkins to name a few.
7) Plan fun activities:
Involve the guests, the bride or the couple. Try and find fun creative games
that everyone can participate in.
8) Ask for help:
Don’t be afraid to ask for help. You might need a few extra hands to help and
prepare certain things especially if it’s not being catered.
9) Capture the moment:
Ask a friend to take pictures, especially those that might be creative.
