The Ultimate Bridal Shower Playlist

Whether the thought of planning your wedding scares you out of your wits or it is what you've been dreaming of since you were five, there are so many things to look forward to in the whole process. One of those exciting events is your bridal shower! Your bridal shower should be one of the most enjoyable events of your wedding planning journey as the whole idea of a bridal shower is for you to be the guest of honor! It's the party that celebrates the you before you become an us.

You don't plan, you don't stress, you just (righteously) sit back and look forward to being surrounded by all of your favorite people and receiving some great gifts! It can be the thing that resets your stress-odometer by laughing with your besties, playing questionably appropriate but hilarious games, eating, drinking, and simply having a good time.

One thing we always like to consider at these types of events is the atmosphere and ambiance. After all, setting the right tone for your bridal shower, and wedding events in general, is what will help you have a memorable time with your loved ones! So, what's an easy way (yes, easy) to really enjoy your bridal shower? Well, some things can simply be solved with music, babe! Keep scrolling to check out our Bridal Shower playlist for some oldies but goodies, love songs, and the classic jams that get people moving!

If you want to create your own playlist, for instance with songs that you already have downloaded, you may find this little guide helpful:

5-10 alternative/easy listening songs

5-10 classic love songs

5-10 classic dance party songs

5-10 oldies but goodies

Put your list on shuffle and you've got a great running mix that plays while you enjoy your day! Of course you can put on a Pandora station and not worry about the music at all, but throwing in a song that is the anthem to one of your friendships ("is this the reeeeal life...") can truly help you have a day that en-captures the personalized beauty of your relationships! We know, sounds cheesy, but we swear by it.

We hope that this versatile mix can at least give you an idea of how to mix up and enjoy your special YOU day, before finally getting to the big US day. Just remember, focusing on the smaller things when planning your special day, like music and your loved ones, is what will help you truly enjoy the ride and look back on the whole experience as one that you will never forget and cherish forever and ever.
