You may be tasked with planning a bridal shower for a friend or family member. Prioritize finding a venue because you can sort out entertainment and decoration details later. Since private event spaces book quickly, acting fast increases the chance you’ll secure a spot for the date and time of the festivities. Here’s a guide to help you narrow options and find a venue the guest of honor will love.

How to Pick the Best Bridal Shower Location

1. Peruse the Menus

When researching options, the eatery should have an array of savory food, such as light sandwiches and salads, that people can pick at while socializing. To satisfy sweet cravings, make sure the private event venue has dainty desserts, too. Selecting pastries from a beautiful display will make the celebration feel more refined.

2. Tour Venues

Some guests may not know each other, so choose a comfortable spot with water features, soft music, and indoor and outdoor spaces. This will help people relax, which will make them more comfortable and open to socializing. There should also be enough room for people to spread out and play party games and for the guest of honor to open gifts.

3. Find out Where Guests Will Be Arriving From

Send an email to the invite list or ask the bride-to-be where guests will be coming from. With this information, you can quickly eliminate venues that are too far out of the way. Choose a central location for everyone’s convenience. With a short journey, people can attend and arrive on time.
