Rustic Bridal Shower Invitations

Traditionally, it is the maid of honor’s job to plan the bridal shower. If you are taking on the challenge of planning a bridal shower, or if you are helping to bring this event about, you might not know where to begin. First, consider utilizing the same theme for the shower as the bride has selected for the wedding. For instance, if a country wedding theme has been chosen, then rustic bridal shower invitations would be a perfect fit. Keep these simple tips in mind for creating memorable and lovely invitations for your guests.

Creating a Guest List and Sending Invitations

To get started, create a list of people who should be invited to the bridal shower. Adult women, including the bride’s mother and mother-in-law, should be included. It is also appropriate to invite sisters, aunts, and any cousins or close friends that might be in the area. Settling on a firm number of people will help you select the perfect venue.

For this example country wedding, the bridal shower could take place at a pick-your-own fruit farm or in a beautiful vintage garden. Be sure to select and book a venue before personalizing the rustic bridal shower invitations so you can include the address of the destination on the cards.

What to Include on the Invitations

When you start to customize your affordable bridal shower invitations, you will have the option of including information such as:

• The name of the happy couple
• The address of the bridal shower venue and any necessary directions
• Time and date of the shower
• Dress codes and other information that will help guests prepare for the event
• The date for RSVP replies
