Personalized Guidebooks As Bridal Shower Favors
Have you ever talked to a tourist or visitor to your area who goes on and on about the great places they've seen, places you've never even heard about? Oftentimes we don't know what's available to us in our backyards so wouldn't it be great to create a “Things To Do On Saturdays” guidebook to give out as bridal shower favors? Do it up nice and make it look like a menu at a fancy restaurant, or like a page right out of a tourism guidebook. Make sure to add a note that you'd be happy to accompany the bridesmaid as her “date” unless, of course, she can get one of her own.
If you're not sure how to get started with this unique bridal shower favor, start by actually consulting a local guidebook. Nothing says you have to make every list exactly the same. It's probably best if you turn these into personalized bridal shower favors keeping in mind the likes and dislikes of your bridesmaids. For example, if one of your bridesmaids claims to get a rash whenever she listens to country music, it's probably not worth pointing out any concerts coming to the area.
Visit the local tourism office for a guidebook on your town or city and pick out between six and ten neat things to do that your girlfriends didn't already know about, or think about recently. For the active friend, you could make note of nature trails, parks, etc. For the shopaholic friend, point out some of the top stores or malls in the area. Self-made guidebooks make great inexpensive bridal shower favors!
