Brides

While all your thoughts are occupied with planning your wedding and creating memories to last a lifetime, there are other things that will stay with you long after the last toast has been made and the last grain of rice or confetti tossed. Your name. Whether or not you choose to change it all down to individual preference – that of the bride, as it has been part of her identity for a long time and is a very personal decision – and to a certain extent, how strongly the groom feels about it too.

The most exciting part of the wedding, for most brides, is wearing the perfect wedding dress on the wedding day. They always dream about looking gorgeous in their swirling outfits and unforgettable in the eyes of the groom and the guests.

A major decision a bride has to make for her wedding day is how to wear her hair, what hairstyle to choose. Will she wear it up or down? With veil or no veil? Tiara or without jewellery? There are so many choices before her and she has to choose one that complements her style and liking, one that will enhance her appearance on her wedding day.

As the last strains of music fade and the confetti has been cleared, the wedding draws to a close. But that doesn’t mean the fun is over. In fact it’s just about to begin. For now, the honeymoon is just round the corner. Most couples decide to take their honeymoon shortly after the wedding. But some like to relax and get over the frantic pace of wedding activities before setting out on their honeymoon.

Bridal showers are a fun way of getting together and having some fun with the bride before she’s no longer ‘single and so free to mingle’. It gives the bride a chance to enjoy the company of her family and friends before getting caught up in the frantic pace of last-minute wedding preparations.

If you have designated yourself as the shower planner, you will need to organize a few games to play during the bridal shower. It’s nice to have games centered on the theme, i.e. the bride and the wedding. But general games will also do, as long as everybody is having a good time.
