Always remember that this day is about your friend, so stick to something she will really love! The size of the group will determine what type of party this will be. Start by deciding when to have the bridal party and who to invite.<b><\/b><\/div>\n<h4><strong>When to have the Kitchen Tea<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Most of the times, the bride is involved in the planning of the bridal party. She won\u2019t know everything, just the basics! A bridal party usually happens somewhere in the two months leading up to the wedding. It is important to keep the following factors in mind:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Will the bride\u2019s closest family members be available?<\/li>\n<li>Will the bride be available?

She knows her wedding guest list by heart! Sometimes it is nice to include a close relative that might not be able to make it to the wedding. You don\u2019t have to invite all the female wedding guests to the bridal party! Try to stick to maximum 30 guests to keep the party intimate.<b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>https:\/\/youtu.be\/xGa4xKnL5gI<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3><strong>Entertainment<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"two-column\">Not all brides like to play games!

You can also hand beads to all your guests and you can string a long necklace while giving the bride \u201cpearls of wisdom\u201d.

You can have a little washing line with pegs where they can hang their photos and the bride can keep the photos and memories!

This also doubles up as a thoughtful gift for the bride!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Gifts<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Opening the gifts has always been a big part of the kitchen tea entertainment. In modern times, the bride usually doesn\u2019t need kitchen and homeware as much anymore, so a great gift idea would be to ask all the guest to gift her vouchers. The bride can then go shopping for what she really wants and needs! The bride can also open gift registries for her kitchen tea. Popular gift registries are with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yuppiechef.com\/registry.htm?action=show&amp;id=773\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yuppiechef<\/a>, Boardmans, Woolworths and
