Sometimes it seems as though surprise parties are impossible these days with Blackberries, email and text messaging all posing as a spoiler. The perfect surprise party is possible though. If you wish to throw a surprise Bridal shower there are a few things to keep in mind and which will help to make it the best surprise shower possible.

Step One

O.K the first thing that you need to do is write up the guest list. You really cannot go any further at this point, before this has been done because you are going to need to find out who is can come, what days are good for every one, and how far they are willing to go.

Write up the guest list not forgetting to include the bride-to-be's best friends and family members, the number of people that you invite is really up to you and how big a party you think the bride would feel comfortable with.

Choose the Date

The phase in planning the surprise shower is to actually set the date. This can be somewhat tricky, because more than anything you are going to have to make sure that the bride herself is able to make it on that date, but without letting her know what you are up to.

You can speak to her fiance to see what his opinion is on this, and if you can get a hold of her date book or calendar, without being overly nosy, you can check to see what dates she has free.

Keep Her Busy

Over the time that you are planning and preparing for the Bridal shower surprise you are going to need to make sure that the soon to be bride is kept busy.

Without making it too obvious that you are trying to get her out of the way, you should by now have her busily occupied with other tasks (preferably elsewhere) while you and the other girls are busy working away to make sure that her bridal shower is just right.

Keeping Everyone Quite

Bridal showers can be an exciting affair, especially a surprise Bridal shower, but making sure that everyone keeps quiet is a must.

The more people that know about the surprise party the greater the risk of a leak becomes and the chances that the guest of honour finding out about the surprise increase, so making sure that all of the guests are tight lipped and keep it on a need to know basis.
