Tip of the Day: If you're a bridesmaid hosting a bridal shower, try having it in a private residence where you won't have to worry about paying catering costs per person (something many restaurants require). Also, don't invite anyone who isn't invited to the actual wedding. The one exception? And office shower since it's understood that the bride may not be able to invite all of her co-workers to the wedding.
