Ask Claudia: Avoiding Boring Bridal Shower
Gina, East Northport
Q: I was just wondering if you had any ideas for bridal showers.. I’m having one for my daughter in a traditional venue, but they are sooo boring I was wondering if you had any ideas to make it a little interesting. I considered a male stripper to help her open her gifts but she would never speak to me again. Let me know if you have any ideas.
A: Gina, to make bridal showers more fun these days, it’s nice to bring someone into the party — for example, DJ Chef cooks (and flirts) and spins music for a lively party. If guests are into wine, you can hire Swirl Events to come to the party and teach everyone about wine pairings.
Want something a little more racy? I have not personally screened this out yet, but the off-Broadway show, Puppetry of the Penis is now doing at-home bachelorette parties and showers.
Another idea is to host the party on wheels with a Sex & the City tour in New York City, if the girls are fans of the show (the Sex & The City movie sequel will be released next spring) – it’s a really fun activity with several stops along the way, plus treats from Magnolia Bakery.
There are also fun games you can download online, specifically for showers…
