The couples shower is similar to the baby shower and the wedding showers except the guests are both males and females. In the usual or traditional wedding shower, the guests are the female friends of the bride. It is usually given by the maid of honor or by the best friend of the bride. The party is usually held at a designated place or at someones house. There are also the more elaborate ones, such as theme inspired bridal showers. The invitation then generally complement the party. If the party is a theme party, say a 60s theme party, the invitation is 60s designed or inspired.
Now with the evolving role of the men and women in our society and the changing family structure, the traditional bridal shower has also evolved. And so we now have the couples shower. Now the couples shower as part of the wedding event is becoming the norm. More couples are now having couples shower party instead even though we still see the traditional shower occasionally. Also, the responsibilities and the role in the family is now being shared by the couples. So the gifts from the bridal shower are not just for the women anymore.
Now the themes are also different from the traditional bridal shower since the couples shower is for both the male and the female. For instance, it is no longer quite appropriate to give out lingerie theme bridal shower. This would definitely make the male and the female guests feel quite uncomfortable. Therfore choosing the theme that is right for both the sexes is important. The host must also consider the games when choosing the theme. Then if the party will be something like a night out in the town, then one must also consider the right places for such event.
Of course the invitation should be applicable for both the female and the male also. The traditional invitation cannot be used since it might make the males feel out of place for the occasion even though they are invited. At the same time, it is important to make sure that the groom is given the same attention as the bride. The party must therefore be interesting to the groom and the male friends as well. The first thing that can really make them interested with the party of course is the invitation. The host should therefore choose the right couples shower invitation for the couple. The couples shower invitation should therefore be something that will pique the interest of the males not just the females.
