Fantastic Bridal Shower Favors

The idea of giving out favors began in the 1500’s, with royal
weddings, where small gifts or mementos of the event were handed out.
Today, these special souvenirs are given out to celebrate many
special events. For bridal showers, favors can be as expensive or as
inexpensive as the family wishes. These souvenir bridal shower favors
are to remind guests of the wonderful time they had at the party.

Some popular and common bridal shower favors include cocktail napkins
inscribed with the couple’s names or personalized candy dishes or candy
bars. Fantastic bridal shower favors do not need to be expensive. Giving
guests the bride’s favorite childhood card games, such as old maid or
Uno are an excellent way to personalize a bridal shower.

Giving guest something useful and domestic, such as bridal shower favors
of useful kitchen, office or home items, is also an excellent way to
commemorate the event. Mini whisks, wooden spoons, refrigerator magnets,
measuring spoons, and cookie cutters are novel and inexpensive bridal
shower favors. Attaching a favorite recipe of the brides is a wonderful
way to personalize these favors.

If the bridal shower is being held at a bar or restaurant, shot glasses
and mugs make nice bridal favors of the event. A personalized mug
stuffed with hot chocolate mix is a great winter bridal shower favor. In
the summer, ice tea glasses can be used at the party then taken home as
bridal shower favors.

Inexpensive, but attractive pieces of jewelry or jewelry made during the
bridal shower are also memorable bridal shower favors. Crafts made at
the bridal shower to take home, as favors, is also a fun way to host a
party. Guest can decorate their own aprons, t-shirts or scarves at the
party then take them home as shower party favors. These gifts will
remind guests of the bridal shower each time they use the item.

Families hosting the bridal showers have a variety of choices when it
comes to bridal favors. Small ceramic jewelry boxes or piggy banks are
fun and useful shower favors. Herb plants in decorated planters are a
different, but a memorable gift. Guests can decorate their own planters
and choose their herb plants during the bridal shower.

Another memorable bridal shower gift is hiring someone to do caricatures
of the guests. The artist will draw funny but charming pictures of each
guest, which are then framed. These creative caricatures will remain
memorable souvenirs of any bride’s shower.
