A bridal shower is a celebration held for a bride-to-be, where friends and family gather to honor her upcoming marriage. Guests typically bring gifts to help the bride start her new life. These gifts can range from practical items, like kitchenware and home essentials, to more personal items, such as spa products or keepsakes. Common bridal shower gifts include items from the couple's wedding registry, which may feature appliances, dinnerware, and bedding. Other popular choices are gift cards, personalized items, or experiences like cooking classes. The goal is to provide the bride with useful and meaningful items as she embarks on her new journey.
