Like many things related to weddings, the bridal shower has come a very long way. Some would say that it originated in Holland. Nevertheless, there are already so many stories referring to the origins of bridal showers, and, it has now become a custom still practiced by many up to this day. You may also see invitation samples.

Bridal showers began as an alternative to the dowry system, that if your family couldn’t afford a dowry or refused to pay one, then your friends will do it in behalf of your family. The bridal shower became recognized in the US during the late 1800s, when well-off women started hosting them to hang out and have some fun times with the bride-to-be before her wedding day.

It should be noted that bridal showers are not mandatory. It may be fun and can be another excuse to get all of your friends together while you are still single. But this is usually taken cared of by other people and not the bride herself.

This is another one of those brilliant wedding planning moments where you get to delegate some tasks to the friends or family members who are always offering to lend a hand. If you are the bride and you know someone always willing to throw you a bridal shower party, then sit back and let them be.

What Is a Bridal Shower?

A bridal shower is a party involving giving of gifts to the bride-to-be before her wedding day. This custom is said to have started around the 1980’s and is today is commonly practiced in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

A bridal shower is usually held one to two months before the wedding date. This will be a busy time for the bride and the bridesmaids, so it is highly advisable to hold the party earlier to ensure a well-planned bridal shower.

A bridal shower can have between 5 to 25 attendees, provided they are all close to the bride and are invited to the wedding itself. Depending on the bride, a bridal shower can also be exclusive to women only.

Origin of Bridal Showers

The custom reportedly originated in the Netherlands as a way to give the required household goods to a Dutch woman who wished to marry a poor mill operator instead of a rich farmer that her father has chosen for her.

Because of her disobedience, her father refused to give a dowry unless she wedded the man he picked, so the villagers met up to “shower” the woman with little blessings of household gifts just so she could marry the mill operator that she loved.

However, this is just one of the many origin stories as to how bridal showers came about, with the true origin of the custom still unknown.

Who Usually Organizes a Bridal Shower?

Customarily, the maid of honor and the bride cooperate to arrange the bridal shower, yet there is no actual rule about who should host the bridal shower. Nowadays, loved ones and close friends can choose to arrange and have the shower festivities.

Generally, showers are held at the home of a bridesmaid or family. For bigger parties, it might also be held in a rented hall space, party room, or a restaurant.

Generally, if the maid of honor is arranging and facilitating the occasion, then she is normally in charge of the expenses. The bride’s family regularly assists with the costs, and more recently, bridesmaids help with shower costs as well.

Hosting a Bridal Shower

Bridal shower versus Bachelorette Party: What’s the Difference?

A bridal shower is similar to an engagement party but is commonly just for girls. This is traditionally organized by the maid of honor with the help of the bridesmaids. The purpose of this is to shower the bride-to-be with gifts and words of encouragement.

A bachelorette party, on the other hand, is a party for the bride-to-be to let her hair down and forget all about the wedding plans just to have fun with her girl friends. This party marks the bride-to-be’s last night as a single woman. Unlike the more formal bridal shower, this event tends to have naughty or sexy themes involved, and lots of alcoholic beverages.

What Is an Invitation Letter?

An invitation letter is a document that exhibits a formal request for an individual, a group of people, or an company at a party or event. An invitation letter may either be formal or casual, and it can either be printed on paper or sent by means of email.

Invitation letters can be used for an different occasions, like weddings, graduation afterparties, anniversary gatherings, and birthday parties.

An invitation letter, for the most part, contains some information about the host, the date and time of the event, the location of the event, and how to acknowledge the invitation. Invitations are typically sent a couple of days ahead of time of the event, to give the invited guests a chance to respond to the invitation.

What Are the Types of Invitation Letters?

Invitation letters can be divided into two general types: (1) invitation letters for visa applications and (2) invitation letters for events. Invitation letters to events can likewise be divided into two classifications: invitation letters to people for a unique part in an event and invitation to people to attend an event.

An invitation letter for visa is a letter to a guest who lives in one country to invite a visitor to visit them from another country. The arrangement for this sort of invitation letter is different in relation to the invitation letter for events.

If you have to invite a companion from another country to go to your event, you will need to arrange the invitation letter in such a way that they can use it for visa application.

These two types of invitation letters can further be divided into personal invitation letters and business invitation letters. A personal invitation letter is written by an individual while a business invitation letter is written by an establishment.

Why Are Invitation Letters Necessary?

What Should You Include in Your Bridal Shower Invitations?

Invitations for bridal shower parties may be less formal than for weddings. You simply need to make sure to include an RSVP card and an envelope, the date, time, the venue of the shower, and some contact details.

You may also include other important information such as theme for the shower, the bride’s clothing size, and other special instructions.

These invitations should be sent within at least four weeks ahead of time, and request that the RSVP cards be returned within two weeks of the event.
