We all know that not everyone looks forward to their bridal shower. Previously we've talked about anxieties over someone bringing a gift to a no-gift shower, getting stuck when it comes to including dudes, and agonizing over not wanting a shower at all.
Then Offbeat Bride Julie offered an awesome suggestion for a bridal shower perfect for both literary nerds and those who don't want a typical wedding shower...
My wonderful friends offered to host a shower and didn't understand the concept of a feminist, gift-less, pre-wedding party. So I sized up my priorities and asked if we could do a book shower. Each person brought a book that reminded them of their relationship with me. We played one game, too. It was a nice way to meet them halfway.
Oh, and think of all the fun decor options. I'm thinking use some of these book decor tutorials (Psst: If you're worried about the horrors of book mutilation, Offbeat Home has great advice for you)...
Speaking of games, what kind of game ideas can y'all come up with for a book party shower? Let's crowdsource the perfect book party shower right now!
