Planning a wedding shower can sometimes be more innovative than planning an entire wedding day, though paying attention to details is just as important as the big day itself.

Make sure to discuss what type of shower the bride-to-be prefers. The possibilities could include a couple’s party (inside or outside?), a formal outing at a restaurant, or a gift shower for specific items such as lingerie, kitchen items, or linens.

Once you choose the date, place and time for the wedding shower, the invitations should be sent at least six weeks before the date of the shower. You’ll want to consider the details and prepare the invitation card carefully.

When it comes to selecting a wedding shower invitation style, there are a wide variety of different styles to choose from. Wording of the wedding shower invitation will go a long way in setting the tone for the event.

Planning your Wedding Takes Time and Love

by tomboesen on July 29, 2010

Importance of Planning
A perfect wedding exists in the hearts and minds of the bride and groom. Of course, there is no such thing as perfect, but that shouldn’t stop you from planning for perfect. Planning a wedding requires loving communication between bride and groom. What are each of their expectations? Are their family (or new) customs they want included? This is a great time to create a strong bond as a couple. Sometimes the planning is more important than the plan itself.

Plan Your Wedding EarlyStart Early
Start your planning early. Choosing to do things at the last minute can be disastrous. With a wedding, even two months before the wedding is last minute. If possible, allow yourself at least six months before your wedding date, giving you ample time to get everything you need for your big day.

What Comes First?
Some say your guests determine your budget. Others vice-versa. Either way, the first two steps, while possibly interchangeable, should be your budget and your guest list. In both cases, consider extras and excesses. You may find you forgot a few people on the original invites. You may also find that you have unnecessary costs that need to be shaved. Plan for these contingencies ahead of time.
