Bridal showers are one of the most exciting events before the “miss” becomes a “missus”. This is in fact, the only event that is thrown exclusively for the bride and her party of awesome ladies. And while planning it can sometimes become a little tricky, the final results are often magical and truly unforgettable not just to the bride but to the entire party as well. Bridal showers have changed over the years and have now become more fun than they used to be. From a subtle dinner and cocktails to a weekend of full-scale fun at the beach with matching bridal shower sunglasses and swimsuits and yacht charters.

Being the maid of honor is just that, an honor. That means that someone in your life, whether it be a sister, a cousin, a colleague, or a best friend, loves you enough to choose you for this once-in-a-lifetime event. However, being chosen as the maid of honor means you have to bear the responsibility that comes with it.

Wedding planning can be both daunting and exhausting, especially when you realize there is more to it than just the cake and the wedding dress. Before anything can ever happen, there still are so many things you have to consider that are not even on the list but surprisingly very essential to the bride and her friends. While there are lots of possibilities to celebrate a couple's life before they tie the knot, there's only one well-known event whose sole purpose is to celebrate the bride and her alone—the one and only exciting, bachelorette party. Apart from the actual wedding day, the bachelorette party makes being a bride the most unforgettable experience a woman could ever have. And since its traditional intimate dinner among the bride and her closest girlfriends, the bachelorette party has gone from subtle to a full-blown destination event.
