Planning a Bridal Shower

Some brides-to-be thrive on bridal showers, while others would rather avoid the entire concept. Here are some ideas to help you throw a great party everyone will enjoy.

Steps:

1. Go in with one or two other people to throw the bridal shower. Divide expenses and tasks to be done.

2. Discuss what type of bridal shower the bride-to-be would prefer. The possibilities include a couples cocktail party, a midday luncheon or tea, or a shower for specific items such as lingerie, linen or kitchen items.

3. Choose a date, place and time for the bridal shower.

4. Send out bridal shower invitations four weeks before the shower.

5. Have guests RSVP to one phone number to prevent confusion.

6. Include the couple's registry locations with each invitation.

7. If the bridal shower is a kitchen or lingerie shower, mention it in the invitation.

8. With the people who are helping you, plan wedding shower games, prizes, food, drinks and decorations.

9. Prepare as much as you can ahead of time so you are free to enjoy the bridal shower.

10. Have a pencil and paper handy so someone can record gifts and givers as the bride-to-be opens her gifts.

Tips:

  • If the bride-to-be is uncomfortable with the traditional bridal shower shower party consisting of games and gifts, be creative and plan a cooking class, quilting bee or pottery-painting party where everyone participates.

  • Always invite the mothers of the bride and groom.

  • Create a Web site that friends and family could access. Place Thank You messages for the shower hosts and hostesses, post directions to the venue, give an overview of how the bride and groom met, post pictures, and give info on where the couple are registered.

  • Tape an envelope to a smaller notebook to use for recording gifts. Put the money received in the envelope and there is no chance of accidently misplacing or throwing it away.

Warnings:

Plan only one or two short wedding shower games or the shower will run too long.

Long Island is, literally, a long island stretching eastward from New York City. The largely suburban area is approximately 115 miles long from Brooklyn and Queens at the western end, to Montauk at the easternmost point. At its widest the island is approximately 20 miles from north to south. While Long Island geographically includes Brooklyn and Queens, politically Long Island in general includes Nassau County and Suffolk County of New York State only.

The primary tourist attractions are the large number of excellent beaches along Long Island Sound to the north and especially along the Atlantic Ocean to the south. The North Fork is also home to many wineries. Other attractions include harbor towns such as Port Jefferson, where a variety of eateries and small businesses thrive in a bohemian atmosphere.

Long Island is essentially a suburban area throughout (except for the Twin Forks region, which is rural) and has few major cities.

There are many ways to get into Long Island: by plane, by train, by boat and by car. National and international airlines land and take-off at four major airports in Long Island. They are MacArthur Airport in Islip (which is a convenient regional airport centrally located on Long Island), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), which is located to the west of the Island (and New York City) in the state of New Jersey.

Long Island Railroad (LIRR) provides service to and from the New York City area to most major towns on the Island. Be aware, however, that the farther from New York City one travels, the more sporadic service becomes.

If you prefer going in by boat, there are ferries available at the north shore of Long Island Sound.

When considering using a car or limousine service, one can take into account the many controlled-access highways that run through New York City from Connecticut and New Jersey. It is advisable, however, to travel on routes that do not cross Manhattan Island (where traffic is perpetually horrendous). From New Jersey, I-278 runs across Staten Island to Brooklyn where major roads (including Route 27 and the LIE) can be reached. From Connecticut, take I-95 South to I-678 and the Throgs Neck Bridge. Once into Queens, nearly every major thoroughfare is encountered while still heading south on 278.

A convenient way to bypass most traffic is to take a car ferry from either Bridgeport, CT to Port Jefferson (on the North Shore in the center of Suffolk County) or New London, CT to Orient Point (on the North Fork).

Why use a limousine service in New York?

A limousine service can easily be substituted for a car service. The comfort and safety of having a chauffeur-driven limousine service is more valuable when traveling in and around New York. There are practically hundreds of limousine services in New York.
