Sweet shrimp in garlicky olive oil is just about the ideal tapas bar snack. The sweet shrimp and garlic aroma go perfectly with a nice sherry, while the leftover oil at the bottom of the earthenware dish is the ideal sopping-up liquid for good Spanish bread.
When to Have the Bridal Shower. A bridal shower can be held anywhere from six months to the week before a wedding. If many guests are traveling from out of town, it may make sense to have it closer to the wedding so they can attend. Otherwise four to eight weeks before the wedding works.
Preparation. 1  Check Pick a date. Showers should be held about two weeks to two months before the wedding. 2  Check Compile a guest list. As the host, you should set the number of guests you're comfortable inviting. 3  Check Choose a theme. But only if you wish.  Check Determine the location. It could be your home or a nearby venue.
