What Should the Bride Wear to Her Boho Bridal Shower?

As the guest of honor, the bride can wear whatever they feel most comfortable in. If you’re not sure what to choose, start by thinking about how formal the party will be, and where it’s being held.

Don’t forget your accessories. If you’ve got your heart set on a certain outfit, you can always dress it up or down, to fit the style you’re after. For example, a formal outfit could be dressed down with flats and casual jewelry, like beads or crystals. A casual outfit could be dressed up with heels and formal jewelry, like gold or pearls.
