Does anyone have any different or simply fun bridal shower ideas? Perhaps even one with the groom to be there. Nothing naughty or anything. Grandmas will be there. Just something different than the snacks, cake punch, games, presents then leave kind of shower. Maybe a drop in shower? Food pounding? This won't be the only shower given, so I'm open for ideas if anybody can help! Thanks!

What can I do next?

I really enjoyed going to a Thursday evening shower. There was wine and slushy drinks. You can do a theme like stock the bar or a kitchen or bathroom theme. Enjoy the planning!

My daughter held a shower for a friend and made "mixed drinks". She got tiny champagne glasses and made "pina coladas", "strawberry daquiris", etc, with Jelly Belly jelly beans! Very cute!

I think a shower with both of the couple is fun. Just have small finger foods for snacking and talking. Then if you want to open gifts in front of the guests I know they love to see if you liked their gift. Or if you want to have more fun with the food thing do a fondue party with gifts. everyone loves the chocolate desert fondue.

I had the traditional bridal shower just like you described above, but my husband was there the whole time... he wanted to be there! He asked me if he could be a part of it and I was so happy. I was at a co-ed shower and we had so much fun, it was just like a party from when we were younger. An acquaintance recently had a shower that I wasn't able to go and I wish I would have been able to because it was a different theme. She had it in the evening and it was a wine and hors d'oeuvres shower. No silly games, just a L. more sophisticated. I heard it was really nice and a nice change from the usual.

My best friend just got married we thru both of bride to be and the groom to be a mexican theme party. We let everyone know it was a gift card shower. There were 4 of us and everyone made something different we had tacos, with beef, chicken and steak with all the fixings. We also had beans, rice, rotel, another dip and a cake. Everyone enjoyed it. We even went as far as to have a band also. They played for free as a favor to one of the other girls that was helping.
