            Etiquette for How to Write Bridal Shower Invitations

            Bridal showers are more often than not hosted by the maid of honor, bridesmaids, a close girlfriend or the mother of the bride. It is important to clearly state the theme of the shower on the invitation as well as if it is a couple shower or just for the bride.

            Other important things to keep in mind:
            • Don't invite guests who haven't been invited to the wedding.
            • Make sure you invite all the bride's girlfriends.
            • Send one invite per guest; make sure you mention the return address for RSVP.
            • If the bride is registered for gifts, you can also add that to the invite.
            • Include directions to the venue.
            • Don't forget the basics such as the bride's full name, the date and the venue.
            • If the bridal shower is a no gift shower, mention that too.
            • Remember to send the invitation well in time – 3-4 weeks in advance will do.
