Send Card Rant

With changing roles of genders and co-ed friends many couples prefer that a couples shower invitation be sent for a party for gifting the bride and the groom rather than an all female bridal shower. The wedding shower for couples will not be with the traditional dainty napkins, finger snacks and other feminine frills but have a more robust menu of pizza and sandwiches and food that is enjoyed by guests of all genders.

Asking the bride and the groom for the list of people they will be asking for the wedding will make it easier for the host or hostess to send out couples shower invitations to the appropriate guests. Traditionally bridal showers had bride to be games but in a couples shower the games look a bit ridiculous and providing music for dancing has become fashionable. Gifts

Couples shower invitations should specify the theme of the party whether it be a stock the bar party or a handy couple party a sports party or a travel party. The invitations should be sent in the parental surname of the bride for she is the bride to be. Couples Showers should be held between three months or three weeks before the wedding. Couples shower invitations should be designed and worded for a happy double gender gift giving occasion. Greeting Card Association
