You can purchase these from any department store with a card section or you can make them yourself using the computer. Either way, make them bright and colorful.

TIP#2: Choose the games!

Some bridal showers are formal in that there are large amounts of people and a nice dinner atmosphere. Then, there are those that are more relaxed and laid back. At these type of parties, games work really well. You can find games to play at the craft store or search for free games online.

TIP#3: Choose favors and themes

Many couples have a theme for their entire wedding. While this can simply be nothing more then a color pattern, they can also be characters and ideas.

The favors can be a great way to allow people to remember the event years later. Often these small gifts given to the guests are ceramics, trinkets, or even just simply sweets. You can find ideas that will suit your theme or your tastes in craft stores or even in some mall stores. Often times, people will attach a small message with their names and the date and event title to the favor as a keepsake.
