Here are some tips :
  • Choose a date prior to the wedding.
  • Decide on whether it should be a surprise for the bride or otherwise.
  • Set a budget and determine who pays for what.
  • Make a guest list. Do ensure that those on the list are also to be invited to the wedding to avoid any awkwardness later.
  • Select a location. Some possible venues could be a home of one of the bridesmaids, a spa, a nice, quiet restaurant, a hotel suite etc.
  • Give invitees advanced notice to keep the day free.
  • Plan the event around a theme but keep it simple.
  • Keep track of gifts and the givers during the shower.

When participating in these celebrations, it is important to be mindful that :
  • Such parties should be fun, lighthearted but not crass.
  • As a lead up to such a milestone as marriage, these parties are a rite of passage as well and should therefore be meaningful.
  • Embarrassing the bride or groom should be frowned upon.
  • Do not hold hen or stag nights on the eve of the wedding – everyone including the bride and groom will never recover in time
