Quick Tips for a Delicious Bridal Shower Menu

Bridal showers are great ways to celebrate the bride-to-be with all her best friends. Although it's an easy concept, it's sometimes difficult to follow through with creating a bridal shower with good food.

Hosting a bridal shower is a fun way to support your engaged friends. here are some helpful tips and menu idea to make sure you don't bankrupt yoursellf in the process:

Keep in mind while you're planning your menu, that at a bridal shower, guests are mostly female. Also remember that women tend to eat lighter fare.

Most showers take place early afternoon, so the menu should consist of brunch or lunch type items. Mini Tea sandwiches and canapes are always a crowd pleaser.

If you want to be a little more adventurous try making room temperature healthy soup sips (they're low in calories, tasty, gourmet, and unique).

Preparing and serving items room temperature is a smart way to go. It will allow you to present a beautiful buffet of items ahead of time, allowing you to enjoy your party.

Also when thinking of beverages, a limited bar menu is best. I recommend one signature alcoholic beverage. Perhaps a Champagne Punch, Sangria, or a special martini. Then simply fill in with Sparkling and flat waters and soft drinks.
