Bridal Shower Invitations

Bridal shower invitations carry more etiquette than almost any other card: the hosts' names (not the bride's), the registry mention, and a tone that matches the wedding to come. Describe the shower and the conventions come built in.

Good to know

Whose name goes on a bridal shower invitation?

The hosts' — traditionally the bridal party or a relative, never the bride herself. The bride is the honoree ('a shower honouring Emma').

How do I mention the registry politely?

One quiet line at the bottom — 'Emma is registered at…' — never in the headline. RevelPost keeps registry mentions in the note line where etiquette expects them.

Make it yours in one sentence.

Every example above regenerates as your event — your names, your venue, your date, verified.
