When you’re planning a co-ed, or couples wedding shower, you might find that there’s a lot of different names for it. Usually, a bridal shower is the traditional kind, with women only, held in honor of the bride. A wedding shower is when all sexes are included and the party is held in honor of the couple.

If you’re planning a bridal shower, there’s a lot to keep track of. Especially if you’re going to DIY the food. The best way to get organized is with a good list. If you don’t have one already, here’s a set of lists to get you started.

Nothing brings up weird feelings like setting up your wedding registry. Is it really ok to ask for gifts? How is this not rude! It’s really not. In fact, it’s one of the nicest thing you can do for your guests. Most of the people invited to your wedding don’t know your taste, your favorite colors or what you might already have. An easy way to let them know is by setting up a wedding gift registry. When you start your registry, you’re not demanding gifts - you’re just creating a wish list.
