Bridal showers can be one of the most fun parts of your wedding, or they can be a tired traditional affair that no one can feel excited about. While there are certainly some people out there who get excited thinking about quiet and polite showers with pristine china and lace doilies, many couples these days are getting creative with their pre-wedding events. Here are 4 suggestions for a fun bridal shower that everyone can relax and enjoy.

Just about the best type of shower to relax at is a bridal shower at a spa. After all- what’s more relaxing and fun then spending a day with your closest friends and families in a location devoted to relaxing and becoming beautiful? This is actually a far more common type of shower than you might think, and just about any spa worth their weight offers special shower packages that provide a full day experiencing the best of their facilities. This type of shower is great, though it can be pretty expensive, especially if you’re accommodating a lot of people. If you can’t afford a proper spa day for everyone but want to pamper your selves regardless, consider throwing a spa day at your house instead.

Another fun idea that incorporates everyone is having a fortune telling bridal shower. Most people, whether they admit it or not, really enjoy having their palms read, or having someone read their tarot cards. After all, most people love to hear about themselves, and most of us are constantly thinking about our futures and answers for all the questions we have. A lot of people find themselves with a lot more questions about their lives when it comes to theirs or a friends wedding, and hiring a few fortune tellers can be a great experience for everyone. Of course, you do need to think about whether there is anyone who would be really put out by this. Some people just don’t enjoy these things, and other people take them too seriously and might get really upset by a less than stellar reading. Figure out for yourself whether this would be an appropriate type of shower for you and your guests.

Of course, you could also throw a party revolving around making favors for your wedding. You can go all out and have a ton of bridal shower favors for the day itself to get everyone in the mood, and then make a bunch together for the wedding day itself. Wedding shower favors don’t need to be as fancy or meaningful as favors for the day itself, but you should still make sure that they are fun gifts for everyone to receive. The more you give to your guests and loved ones, the more they will feel that they day is about them too, and not just about celebrating you.

One of the sweetest ideas is to throw a shower where everyone brings, or puts together, scrap books with their memories of either the bride herself, or the couple. This can be a bittersweet occasion, and going through everyone’s memories crystallizes this. While weddings are happy events, they also mark the end of one part of your life, and remembering how you got there and getting ready to create a whole new host of memories is a beautiful way to prepare to move forward. Just as your loved ones were there for the ride leading to this day, let them be there to send you forward one more time.
