Each culture has its own way of celebrating the bride before the wedding, to make her feel like the leading lady, already days before the wedding. In Italy one of the most renowned traditions is without a doubt the hen party, a celebration that involves a last night of madness before becoming involved in the enduring marriage bond. The Bridal Shower instead comes from overseas, and is a celebration dedicated to the future bride that can add to or substitute our hen party (bachelorette). It is an intimate moment, to be lived with calm and amenity between friends, in order to prepare oneself together with friends, for the new phase of the life of the celebrated one, accompanying it with gifts, confidences, advice and pampering.
