Brides who had a Bridal Shower

I am helping out a friend last minute we have 3 weeks to get this shower in order. I wanted to ask you girls, what the most memorable part of your shower was and if there was anything unique that anyone did?!!! Thank you so much.

2 of my bridesmaids help up a clothing line and while my MOH read this poem the hung the panties to match!

The bridesmaids have a secret to share
About our little bride
She is obsessed with underwear
That we cannot hide.

So for our special panty queen
We'll make her feel just fine
By working as a friendly team
To form a panty line.

Linda , these undies are to last you
All throughout your life.
And Kevin will be pleased to say
He has a sexy wife!

So listen up to hear about
Your lifelong panty plan
These underwear, we have no doubt
Will last your whole life span.

The first are for your wedding day
Of course they are pure white
You know we all will shout, 'Hooray!'
When we dance with you on that night.

The next are for your honeymoon
They're sexy and all lace
We hope you'll leave your hotel room
cause st lucia is a gorgeous place!

On Valentine's you'll wear this pair
Before you hit the bed
Love will be in the air
And we all know you love red.

And then after a year has passed
Anniversary number one
With these you'll surely have a blast
'Cuz leopard's so much fun!

Then when the time is right for you
And don't be saying, 'Maybe'
You'll wear your little pink or blue
In honor of your baby.

And when your years of wedding bliss
Become the big 2-5
Don't worry - you'll just slip this on
To keep the sparks alive.

Then, finally when you're old and gray,
With these you can't go wrong,
'Cuz sorry - but at that age, Linda
You just can't wear a thong.

they hung up a big pair of bloomers for the last pair!

Re: Brides who had a Bridal Shower

My mom was amazing! She did a bath/shower theme...the place card holders were what looked like cupcakes, but were really face clothes wrapped to look like cupcakes. Each one had a cherry on top, but the cherry was really a kitchen magnet. They were all wrapped in clear wrapping and so many people thought they were real...they were even smelling them. The favors looked like little pound cakes...they were put in pound cake boxes and they looked real, but were really a bigger sized towel. She had bridal dolls on every table and the CP was a basin (where people used to wash clothes in in the old days) and it was filled with shower/bath products...even a shower head! She even made up these beautiful photo albums that had the pictures of my BM's on them with crystals on it. It was the best day...she organized this through a vendor we deal with who is very reasonable..if you want her e-mail address FM me...she comes up with amazing ideas.

Re: Brides who had a Bridal Shower

We did a newleywed game for my friend. We asked her fiance 10 questions (she didn't know we did this). Examples are: what was Jane wearing on your first date? And What color are her mother's eyes?

Then we asked Jane (the bride) the same questions to see if she could predict her fiance's answers. For every wrong answer, she had to put a piece of gum in her mouth.

Re: Brides who had a Bridal Shower

one memorable thing that i had was a guestbook with polaroid pictures......

my wedding guestbook was NOT that great so it was awesome to have this book with everyone's pics and well-wishes...

a fun game that we did was a twist on the toilet paper game...we had a co-ed shower so the girls dressed the GUYS and then when we did the judging for the best dress, they did a runway show and we took pictures and filmed everything.

my matron of honor also did a secret video for me in another room. everyone went in the room to tell their 'advice' and then they put it on a cd and gave it to us..it was sooo nice...

Re: Brides who had a Bridal Shower

my sisters collected pictures of me and DH when we were kids, then of us through the years and then together, set it to music and played it during my shower. I bawled my eyes out; it was my favorite thing ever.

now i'm going to give it to my video guy and he's going to add it to our wedding video so i'll always have it together.
