The party not only helps people network but also helps them carry out a self assessment of the couple to be wed. Hence it is important to have a good beginning. That beginning is provided by the first item of the event to reach the guests . the Bridal Shower invitation.
Bridal shower invitations are the first window of declaration of the party to follow.

We all love to be part of wedding celebrations. Friends and family should not foot the bill for the newlyweds to outfit their new master suite.
Couples should keep some perspective when planning these things. Couples who are genuinely starting out can fill up their registry with a clean conscience and have a traditional baby shower. If, however, you are a double income couple with two of everything already, then let your guests off the hook.

Others say the United States was the birthplace of the shower. Perhaps “shower” refers to the Victorian custom of placing gifts in a parasol, so when opened, gifts would shower down on the recipient. No matter the origins, the shower was a way to replace the dowry or trousseau.
What began in the late 1800s, has continued to flourish into the 2000s. It appears that the United States and Canada are the main celebrators of the bridal shower.

The prevailing rules of etiquette dictate that every adult be sent an individual invitation, however, in the event of a couple shower, the couple ought to be sent one common invitation. Two females living in one residence get an invitation each. If the bride is having another shower, try to stay away from inviting the same guests. If you must overlap the guest lists to avoid offending anyone, be sure to let the overlapping guests know that you don’t expect them to bring ANOTHER gift, that you would simply enjoy their company.
For the invitation, go with the theme of the bridal shower.

Tradition followed is to organize the wedding shower around 4 to 6 weeks before the actual wedding takes place. For convenience of the outstation guests a bridal shower should be conducted close to the wedding. The number of wedding shower invitations sent and the relatives who should be invited is subjective and is decided by the couple or the host.
Firstly to start invitations you require a guest list which can be arranged from the bride, but if it is a surprise the same should be arranged from the mother or fiance. Another important factor is that only people invited to the wedding should be invited to the bridal shower as otherwise the bride might get into an awkward situation.
