Back in January, we began to figure out how we would plan the bridal shower. Kat & I are heading the committee and we have a few brides who already volunteered to help. We're trying to figure out the best date for all of the brides! Please vote above on which weekend works best for you. Also, if you have a restaurant recommendation, post one below.
Here is some info on how the actual bridal shower works (taken from Mara017, the bride who organized the 2012 shower): 'In the past we have all been given secret brides and you are given information about their registry and you buy something it. There would be a limit of something like $25. The 2011 girls made a cookbook so if we like that idea I would have someone on the committee to organize that. In the past, they have gotten donations from vendors (gift Certificates, items, etc) and did a raffle. You can have everyone get a certain amount of tickets for coming and if you want you can purchase more and the money would be given to a charity.
We'll have a poll in the upcoming week regarding location and also I'll be posting a letter for anyone to send to vendors who may want to donate.
***Last Day to Vote is August 1st***

The 21st is really the only one that will work for me... But if it's then I'd love to help! How would it work though if you're not registered? We aren't planning on it for a while.
Not sure about that.. I prob won't be registered as well! I'll figure out how the ladies worked it in those situations!

This just popped into my head....everyone who comes purchases something that would be on a registry....like someone buys a set of bowls, someone a plater....I dunno whatever. And then we all raffle them off. It would have to be done that everyone gets something. Or so something like a secret santa, minus the registries.

Doesn't really matter to me. I should be able to do any of them. I already have a vendor in mind to talk to about favors!
