-
Historic Manors – Classic Affairs. An early 19th-century Georgian Manor with manicured lawns and more rooms than you can count is the ideal location for an afternoon tea bridal shower. Plan lots of outdoor activities, and when the sun sets, take the party up a notch with a murder mystery game.
-
Beach Houses – Loud Shindigs. A beach bridal shower party can be as laid-back or as exciting as you want it to be. A beachfront villa is the best place for dusk till dawn parties, beach bonfires, tiki bars and refreshing cocktails. Even if the weather changes on you, you have a beach house to get back to.
-
Wineries – Memorable Events. Winery bridal showers are fun as long as the bride-to-be loves wine. Pick a small winery in the countryside where guests can take part in wine tasting alongside a variety of cheese and bread to pair with.
Bridal Shower Venue Must-Haves
Whether you want dim lighting, a dance floor, sound equipment, or full-on decorations, your venue must have certain features and elements to ensure a seamless event.
Are you going for a specific ambience? Do you prefer the main space to have natural light? Search for bridal shower venues with floor-to-ceiling windows, loft studios, penthouses, or rooftop venues to achieve the desired results.
What's the size of the venue? The right venue hire means being able to accommodate all your guests comfortably. That is why you need to know the number of guests attending the bridal shower early on. Sending invitations with RSVP will help you get an accurate head count.
Can you bring your own drinks? You'd be surprised, but some restaurants allow you to bring a bottle of wine or two to your event. If your alcohol budget is tight, and you want to embrace the BYOB (bring your own booze) concept, check if the venue of choice allows guests to bring their own drinks.
How to Plan a Bridal Shower
Planning and executing a successful bridal shower could feel like a part-time job, especially if you're doing it alone. Follow these steps to speed things up and throw the best bridal shower ever.
Find a Location – When searching for the ideal bridal shower venue, consider a few things first. Knowing the guest count will help you find the right size venue, while an easily accessible location will likely result in higher attendance.
Set a Theme – Having a theme for the bridal shower will make your life easier. Make sure you choose a theme that matches the style of the bride-to-be. Whether you go for a glam party, a retro event, or everything pink, ensure it's just one theme that flows across the bridal shower venue.
Plan the Menu – Food is sometimes the hardest aspect of the party. Unless you are going for high tea, pastries, and light food, you are left with a wide selection. Decide if you want a buffet style or a seated dinner first. Refer to the guest list to know exactly how much food to order or prepare.
Decorate – You don't need to go over the top with the decor. Embrace the minimalistic and less is more style for easier navigation. Or prepare decorations that reflect the bride and her style. Pick her favourite flowers, opt for a nautical theme if she likes the sea and the beach, or set up a fun backdrop for marvelous photos.
Bridal Shower Expenses to Plan For
Normally, the bride and groom, bridesmaids, or close family members will pitch in for a bridal shower, but not necessarily. If you are planning the event on your own, money could be very tight. Our bridal shower venues start at only £13/hour, giving you a headstart for hosting an amazing party on a budget.
Will you have an open bar?
If you want to save money on your bridal shower event, lock up the alcohol, or at least limit the options to beer and wine only. Maybe add a few signature cocktails and mocktails to give people more selection.
Are party favours in the plan?
Bridal shower parties are all about the new bride receiving gifts, but no one will say no to little tokens to remember the party by. These party favours don't need to cost an arm and a leg; you can always make DIY keychains, mini boxes of chocolates, or personalised keychains.
What vendors will you need?
A successful party requires the help of professional vendors, whether caterers, photographers, event decorators, or entertainers. Most of the budget goes to vendors, especially if they are seasoned professionals with many years of experience. To cut costs, you can ask a friend whose hobby is photography to take care of that part or help you set up a photo booth. Maybe some of your friends or family members play an instrument and would like to perform? Don't hesitate to ask. It could save you a ton of money.
