Tip of the Day: Bridesmaids, are you unsure about where to host the bridal shower? Hosting the party in a private residence might be a lot more work, but you won't have to worry about paying catering costs per person, like you would with a restaurant. If you have last-minute cancellations, you'll still have to pay for the entire guest list that you originally stated in your contract.

Also, whichever option you choose, don't invite anyone who isn't invited to the actual wedding. There is only one exception: an office shower. It is understood that the bride may not be able to invite all of her co-workers to the wedding. Check out more bridal shower etiquette here!

Tip of the Day: Did you know that in Irish lore, it’s considered a sign of feminine power and luck for the bride to incorporate a braid into her hairstyle? Braided elements are a top beauty trend this spring. Wedding-worthy looks can include: multiple braids encircled in a crown (as pictured in the photo above), a fishtail braid, or a loose, thicker braid worn on the side.
