Pre-Wedding Party Tips and Ideas

ENGAGEMENT PARTIES
When: Within one to 3 months of the engagement
Hosted By: Parents of the bride or groom
At engagement parties where the guests are unacquainted, set up a cocktail station so people can move around, mingle, and get to know each other.
BRIDAL SHOWERS
When: Within two months to 2 weeks prior to the wedding
Hosted By: Typically, the maid of honor or members of the wedding party
The bridal shower can be ladies-only or a Jack and Jill party.
BRIDESMAIDS/GROOMSMEN LUNCHEON
When: About one week prior to the wedding
Hosted By: Groomsmen/Bridesmaids
Thank the women/men in your wedding party with a brunch, lunch, or casual cocktail affair.

REHEARSAL DINNER
When: One to two night prior to the wedding
Hosted By: Traditionally, the groom’s parents
The rehearsal dinner is the perfect opportunity for everyone in the wedding party (and their plus ones) to get acquainted before the big day.
WELCOME PARTY
When: For destination weddings, the welcome party signals the official kick-off for the weekend wedding bash.
Hosted By: Bride and groom or their parents
Plan a traditional welcome cocktail party or arrange a fun group activity, like a brewery tour.

BACHELOR & BACHELORETTE PARTIES
When: A few weeks prior, but not too close to the Big Day
Hosted By: Maid of honor, best man, or BFF
Book a hyped-themed suite for a touch of glam to your party. Whether you envision a quiet dinner with friends or a fun-filled night on the town, the Curtis Denver is within walking distance to boundless shopping, dining, and entertainment options.
