How It Works
In general, the female friends of the bride, including those that are part of the entourage, are the ones that are in charge of this event before the wedding. In this occasion, only girls are allowed, and the bride can expect to receive gifts.

The theme of the bridal shower depends on the bride's interest. This is because every guest needs to bring a gift for the bride. It may be a lingerie shower, kitchen shower, tea party, and many more. The highlight of the event is the bridal games. The games may also vary depending on the theme, but there are fun bridal shower games that can work for whatever type of theme chosen.

Fun Bridal Shower Games
There are a lot of fun bridal shower games that can be played in occasions such as these. One is the bingo game. The idea is very similar to the literal bingo game, except that it does not include numbers written on the board, but items for the gifts. The guests will be asked to fill the blanks on the gifts that they think will be received by the bride. When the gifts are opened, the brides will mark off the correct items, when somebody gets five items in a row, she will receive a prize.

Another game is the clothespin game. Upon arrival, the guest will receive a clothespin, which should be attached on the clothes. Then, the host should choose keyword or a rule that should be done during the entire event. The rules may include 'no crossing of legs', 'no one should use a specific word'. If a guest is caught breaking the rule, the one, which catches her will get the pin and attach to her clothes. The guest with the most clothespins generally wins the prize.

In the end, a bridal shower will be fun if the bride-to-be is surrounded by the women who are most important in her life.
