Lingerie Bridal Shower?

A lingerie bridal shower are a must for the bride-to-be before she walks down the aisle and ties the knot!

A lingerie shower will allow the bride-to-be to throw away the flannel boxers and bring on the lace and frills to knock her beau right off his feet!

What better way to get the girls together than to send out bridal lingerie shower invitations such as those and enjoy a night of giggles and fun!

Whether it is something naughty or something nice, each guest will bring a gift that will surely make the bride-to-be blush!

With all the multiple showers that are given for the bride, a lingerie shower will bring on gifts that will surely prepare her for her honeymoon and not to mention, her wedding night!

While white and ivory are traditional color choices, you can also brighten the bride's lingerie trousseau with a variety of colors. Red and black are always sexy, but pretty shades of turquoise or melon are unexpected and just as alluring

P.S: Make sure to include your bra and panty size on your lingerie shower invitation....(Scheduling a bra fitting appointment might be a good way to confirm it!)

Another good idea is to include some lingerie-shaped sugar cookie favors. Now, how cute are those?
