BRIDAL SHOWER GAG GIFTS

People at bridal showers take themselves too seriously! That's why you and your friends, on behalf of the nervous bride-to-be, decided to throw more of a fun, light-hearted affair than the tradition bridal shower.

The best thing about light hearted showers, or sometimes known as bachelorette parties, is the wild gifts! No boring china or bed sheets for this get together. (Presumably you already have the important things lined up) Just some casual fun. The funny really begins when the gag gifts start to be passed around.

Keep in mind there are two sorts of gag gifts. The cute kind of gag gifts, which light-heartedly poke fun at traditional wedding gifts and the outrageous kind of adult gag gifts that embarrass everyone.



(But do admittedly give everyone a hearty laugh) Before deciding which kind to buy, please make sure and know your guest of honor! Not everyone likes to be shocked, and some gag gifts could embarrass a more conservative friend. (Hint: The more restrained their laughter, the less they really do like the gift).

Unique Gag Gifts
Consider these kinds of gifts the "safer" gag gifts. Usually it's a clever spoof of a traditional bridal shower gift with just a little bit of sarcasm. Consider for instance, bed sheets or potholders with a personalized picture of the bride and groom. You can many different kinds of products online that are completely customizable with text or pictures.

Other ideas might be salt and pepper shakers, salad tongs or even socks. These are excellent for a laugh and don't run the risk of offending anyone. (Unless of course you put swear words on the customizable coffee mug)

Comedian's Choice
Some gag gifts are not so much customizable or outrageous, but just plain comedy material. How about a Marriage Survival Kit, that includes important items needed to make a marriage work, you know, like bandages, whistles, a ball and chain and anything else funny and metaphorical you can think of. Anything that can get you started on a rant and leave the girls in stitches is a great gag gift moment.





Naughty Stuff
Then of course if your bride-to-be wants to get really wild with the gag gifts there are plenty of toys that can service her. (Er, so to speak) Some popular adult gag gifts might include exotic lingerie, different types of condoms, body candy, sexual how-to books and of course, suggestively shaped appliances. (Hint: They're not toasters)

The marriage will undoubtedly bring many moments of joy, sadness and introspection. But for the bridal shower, have some fun and bring along a few gag gifts!
