- A Wedding
Shower Invitation Should Be Attractive And Stylish!
- by Nicola Driscall
Wedding shower invitations should
lay out all of the necessary information, yet still be attractive.
One way to do this is to have a picture engraved on the invitation.
Ask your engraver to add a small design on the inside of your
invitation or wherever you have information about the reception.
If, for example, an ice cream social is your theme see if there
is an ice cream cone or Sundae dish they can emboss onto the
paper without taking away from the main body of the invitation.

Remember that subtlety is stylish;
you don’t want to come across as overpowering with your
theme. It may be difficult sometimes to know who to invite to
the wedding shower. As a general rule, the wedding shower hostess
or hostesses should invite all family members of both the bride
and the groom. She should also invite close friends of the bride
and the bride's family. She may also want to invite some of the
bride-to-be's co-workers. She should be sure to consult with
the bride when compiling the guest list. Try to organize the
people invited so some will set up the wedding shower game, someone
else will set up the wedding shower favor, and so on.
What do I put on a wedding Shower
Invitation?
The wedding shower invitation
should include the name of the bride to be, the date and time
of the shower, and the address and phone number of the hostess/hostesses.
If you are concerned about the attendance at your wedding shower,
consider including on the invitation a deadline date for the
RSVP. (This is usually about two weeks prior to the shower date.)

It may be difficult to make up
a wedding shower invitation without prior experience. Because
of this, it may be a good idea to have the same person who did
your bridal shower invitation to also do your wedding shower
invitation. |
