The article "Bridal Shower Budget" is about family, it has been created by Trish Burrell.
Your bridal shower bugdet will influence most of your planning.
Consider the number of persons throwing the bridal shower, as the
cost will be divided. Try and come up with a figure that is
affordable for all involved.
Having a bridal shower budget checklist will be very helpful.
Make a list of all categories of your party, start to finish,
that will have an expense.
* Beverages
* Bridal shower
gift
* Cake
* Decorations
* Disposable cameras or other photo costs
* Favors
* Food
* Games
* Invitations
* Music
* Paper goods: plates, cups, napkins, utensils, etc.
* Prizes
Once you have your checklist completed, determine the number of
guests.
Your bridal shoewr food and drink, will be two of your
larger expenses.
Think about what is within reason for the
number of guests invited.
Go over each item in your wedding shower budget checklist, and
allot a certain amonut to each category, until you're happy
with the results.
Keep your priorities in mind. For instance,
having less guests, would save money, but you may decide you
can't cut the guests list. In that case, the food can be less
extravagant, or you mihgt just serve cake and coffee.
Starting your plannnig with a budget will help you to focus your
attention on what's important, and will also be a time saver.
