When you are in the bridal party and a wedding is coming up, you will need to find out how to plan a bridal shower. Your friend who is the bride-to-be has her own wedding checklist to follow, and your job as a good friend is to surprise her with a wonderful party.

Although your friend who is getting married will likely be feeling over-committed completing all the items on her wedding to-do-list, you can still take some time and ask her a few important questions. Ask her questions that will help you decide how best to fit the bridal shower into her wedding planning. You don't want your friend to feel stressed at all at this party, so make sure that you pick a time that she is comfortable with. Remember she is juggling all sorts of arrangements and details, and has a lot on her mind!

For example, ask your friend if she would prefer a lunchtime shower or a nighttime party.

There is no rule that says it has to be one or the other, so it really is up to what your friend feels will be the most fun for her. Also ask her if there is a certain week or day that she feels would be the best for the party. She might have details about when different bridesmaids or relatives are coming into town that you need to know for your bridal shower planning process. You will also want to communicate with the other bridesmaids about the the organization. It is a great idea to get everyone's input and ideas for the party. Different friends may volunteer to handle different areas of the event.

Once you have the basics of the date and time confirmed, it is time to make your own wedding to-do-list on the specifics of the bridal shower. Similar to a regular wedding checklist, you want to create a countdown covering what planning you should be doing from 3 months out to 1 day before the party.

Items on your list should include the invitations, the guest list, shopping for decorations and party goods, etc. The day before the wedding make sure you get in touch with the other bridesmaids and make sure they are ready and have completed their to-do-lists.

Organizing a bridal shower is a unique and meaningful way to strengthen the bonds of your friendship. If you remember to be detailed, thoughtful and organized, your friend's bridal party will very likely be a day that she always remembers. Your friend will feel loved and supported by the very fact that you are participating in the wedding planning process too.
