Step 1
Choose your theme. You will want to choose a theme that reflects the bride. Incorporate this theme in your invitations, food, music and décor.

Step 2
RSVP? You can really set the tone of the party theme by incorporating it into the invitations. If the bride enjoys travel, make invitations in the form of a passport! And don't stop with the invitations- use the same theme in your décor and food choices.

Step 3
Let's eat. Select foods that are easy to manage while moving around and chatting. For ease, you may want to set up a buffet-style table and offer up plenty of plates and napkins.

Step 4
Same old games. Bridal showers can easily become uncomfortable when party games are pushed on the guests; instead make it a theme party. The options are endless when planning a theme party; just remember to stay true to the bride's personality and likes. If she enjoys travel, make it a worldly, travel theme- everything from food, décor and music.

Step 5
A time and place. The bridal shower is much different than a bachlorette party in that lingerie and tongue-in-cheek items are typically not given. This event is a more formal, traditional affair.
