Although it often seems as though surprises are impossible these days what with Blackberry s, email and text messaging, there are ways that it can be done. If you want to throw a Bridal shower surprise there are a few things that you will want to keep in mind and which will help to make it the best Bridal shower surprise ever.
The First Step
The first thing you are going to need to do is make up the guest list. You really cannot go any further before you do this because you are going to need to find out who is willing to come, what days are good for everyone, how far they are going to be able to travel and so on.
Make up a guest list of the bride-to-be’s best friends and closest family members, the number of people that you invite is really up to you and how many people you think they would like to have come.
Picking the Perfect Date
The next step in planning the Bridal shower surprise is to actually set the date. This can be somewhat tricky, because more than anything you are going to have to make sure that the bride herself is going to be able to make it on that date, but without letting her know that you are up to anything.
You can speak to her fiance to see what his opinion is on this, and if you can get a hold of her date book or calendar, without being overly nosy, you can check to see what dates she has free.
Keeping The Bride In The Dark
While you are busy planning and preparing for the party you are going to need to make sure that the soon to be bride is kept out of the way and busy.
Without making it too obvious that you are trying to get her out of the way, you should by now have her busily occupied with other tasks (preferably elsewhere) while you and the other girls are busy working away to make sure that her bridal shower is just right.
Keeping Everyone Quite
Bridal showers can be very exciting, especially a Surprise Bridal shower, but making sure that everyone keeps quite is the trickiest part of pulling it off.
The more people that know about the surprise party the greater the risk of a leak becomes and the chances that the guest of honour finding out about the surprise increase, so making sure that all of the guests are tight lipped and keep it on a need to know basis.
