Bridal Luncheon Ideas

Bridesmaids wear dresses only once for our occasion, learn how to bustle our trains, and help out tying little ribbons on favors with our and our fiancé’s names on them. They deserve a show of gratitude. As brides we need to show our appreciation, a bridal luncheon is the best way to express our feelings. The bridal luncheon doesn’t have to be big, something simple that best exemplifies our thankfulness.

Brides can splurge on their girls by taking them out for afternoon tea. A chance to dress up and be ladies will allow you and your bridesmaids to focus on the wedding details. A quiet afternoon of tea will change the pace of things, and let things slow down to allow you and your bridesmaids enjoy the engagement. Many inns and bed and breakfasts offer afternoon tea to relieve the stresses of the daily routine.

Going to your fiancé’s favorite restaurant. Show your bridesmaids that your future husband has good taste. The food that you dined over while falling in love with your fiancé is a perfect meal to share with your bridesmaids during the last few weeks of preparation for marriage. This can bring memories of your fiancé and you dating, and allowing your girls to know more about him.

Bridal luncheons can be casual. A night out for pizza might be a better fit for your bridal party. Show the girls that despite getting married you are still one of them. Spending time with your bridesmaids is the key element and the atmosphere can be relax and fun. Nothing in etiquette dictates that excessive planning is required for a day of enjoyment.

Luncheons can even be held in your home. Impress your bridesmaids with your newfound cooking skills. Try something new for them, something they really wouldn’t expect. This is also a perfect chance to show off your new house or apartment you will be sharing with your future husband. The effort in catering for them will definitely show how much you appreciate them in this exciting time in your life.

Options vary and all are acceptable ways to show how consideration for the relationship your share with your bridesmaids. Engagements go by fast, so don’t let all the planning get the best of you. These girls are your support group take the time and bestow on them the gift of friendship.
