Holiday Bridal Showers - Tips for a Sparty

Bridal showers are held as a last hurrah of the bride as a single woman. The typical way that to celebrate such parties is usually a night on the town, a trip to Las Vegas or in a hotel room with lots of wine and laughter. Hiring or going out for 'entertainment' is an option that are considered traditional.

Instead of getting rowdy and loud, there are some brides that prefer to just spend a relaxing time with her loved ones. Might I suggest something a bit different. A Spa Day for you and your Bridal Party will not only allow you all to spend some quality time together without any intrusions or distractions - but it will also ensure that you and your closest friends are perfectly relaxed, de-stressed and absolutely beautiful for your Big Day.

Here are some tips you can follow for a relaxing yet fun sparty:

·      Invite a small number of friends. Even though you have a lot of friends, it is generally best to share a special bridal shower event with those closest to you. You should also invite your fiancé’s mom and his sisters.

·      Serve light snacks. Generally speaking, your guests would be on a diet so they can fit their dresses for your wedding. This is why it’s best that you serve light and healthy snacks. At the same time, heavy foods won’t let you relax.

·      Massages that work. The costs for having your guests choose any type of massage they want may be too much for your budget. Instead of splurging on the party, you can arrange for hand and foot massages to be given to your guests.

·      Manicure or pedicure. Another option for the service given to your guests is either a manicure or pedicure. This can still help bring costs down and your guests will enjoy it.

·      Minimal decorations. You can have a few decorations and just set the mood of the spa to an intimate level: candles and soft music are a big help!

·      Refreshments. Serve water or fruit-infused water to your guests to keep them refreshed throughout the entire time.
