April 27, 2007, Newsletter Issue #165: Wedding Showers Unite Two Families

Tip of the Week

Want a wedding shower that incorporates both families' traditions and cultures into the mix? Plan a wedding shower that unites the two families in tradition.

The invitations should request that each person prepare a dish - something personal that they make whether it's a family recipe, an appetizer or a dessert. They should write down the recipe for the dish they prepare and put that in their card. Wedding showers can then be a banquet of potluck dishes and the bride to be is presented with a catalog of recipes for the future.

This can be a really great treat for a bride who doesn't have a lot of family recipes, or a great way to pass on new traditions from one generation to the next. The recipes can be printed up beforehand and bound in a beautiful book format with a table of contents. The coordinator might go the extra mile for the wedding shower and include a mini-biography of each person who provided a recipe.
