Bridal Shower Sleepovers – Pretend You All Are Teenagers Again.
1. Which sleepover would be complete without the horror movie? Yet instead of renting the latest and the greatest, why not rent the cheesiest and the funniest? Why not rent the worst of the “B” movies, or the movies you used to all watch together at the last teenage sleepover? 2. Another sleepover staple is the makeup. Do you remember trying out each others’ eye shadow, lipstick, and eye liner? Well, now you or one of your friends may very well be involved in make up sales, you know, one of your friends may surreptitiously be placing catalogs all around the house whenever she visits you and this would be her time to shine! What a wonderful opportunity to try out the latest colors and see how they look on yourself and your friends! 3. Of course, where there is make up, there is nail polish, and which sleepover would be complete without painting each others’ finger and toe nails! 4. Food is another integral part of the sleepover bridal shower. Since you are no longer teenagers, you will probably want something a little more sophisticated than potato chips and soda, while at the same time nobody wants to be stuck in the kitchen cooking, cleaning, or putting plates together. For this reason it is best to keep it simple and put together some finger foods. If you have the funds, go ahead and call a caterer. If this is out of your price range, you may want to consider making it pot luck. Foods can include rock melon wrapped in thin proscuitto ham, pate, a variety of cheeses and crackers, and pita triangles with humus. All these can be made ahead of time and do not require any lengthy heating or cooking while at the same time minimizing the clean up time required. 5. Allow the evening to progress. What many bridal showers have in common is the almost rigid adherence to a protocol that dictates when food will be had, when games will be played, and when presents would be opened. If you will remember your last teenage sleepover, you will know that these occasions progress at their own pace and in their own good time. Why not use this wisdom for the sleepover bridal shower? Allow the conversation to flow naturally and guests to eat and drink and be merry when they feel up to it. Allow the bride the freedom to open one ore more presents when she is good and ready. Once the pressure to perform all the dictates of a traditional bridal shower is taken out of the equation, what remains is the possibility of some real life fun. Old friendships may be strengthened, new friendships may be formed, good advice will be given, and good food will be eaten. Life will be grand and the bride will look back on her bridal shower for years to come, fondly remembering the conversations, laughs, and overall wonderful atmosphere you provided by doing something totally different!
