Bridal Shower Packing
It’s crazy that we are under 100 days until the wedding and even more crazy that the wedding events have started. This weekend I have the pleasure of being pampered by close friends and family for my Wisconsin Bridal Shower. What a treat!
Where did the idea of a bridal/wedding shower even begin. After doing some research online it seems bridal showers seemed from earlier dowry practices. When a woman got married she would bring a dowry with her. If the woman’s family was poor or didn’t support her marriage a shower was a way to fill her dowry before marriage. The bridal shower allowed her to marry exactly who she would like. Bridal/wedding showers slowly became more into a social affair where woman could get together, chat, have good food, drinks and enjoy each others company.
I am extremely excited for my bridal/wedding shower today. I am looking forward to spending time with family and friends and enjoying everyone’s company. Today will definitely be one for the books of forever memories.
If you know me, you know I am super into having special outfits for special occasions, especially when it has come to all of this wedding stuff. I have to say finding cute white outfits hasn’t been the easiest. Half the time when I find something it’s been beyond unaffordable or just nothing special. I am sharing what I packed in my bridal shower bag this weekend, not as a you have to buy these things, but more as inspiration and ideas of what you could do. Every woman/girl has to feel like a princess now and again. (I feel like one everyday with the fiancé I have. I am super fortunate to have found my soul in another.)
