Bridal showers usually consist of a relaxing afternoon with the bride-to-be's closest female relatives and friends. Fun, low-key bridal shower games with light snacks and hors d'oeuvres rule the day – at least until it’s time to open bridal shower gifts. It's true that all parties need music and entertainment, but you'll want the bridal shower playlist – and therefore the soundtrack of your day – to match the atmosphere of the event.
While in theory, putting on commercial-free streaming radio seems like all that may be needed for a bridal shower; however, using a bridal shower playlist curated specifically for the event will mean that only appropriate music will be included in the music for the day. This is not just in reference to songs that are explicit, but rather music with content that does not fit the occasion. Club music or punk rock is more than likely to sound out of place at a bridal shower, and a somber breakup song could really kill the mood! You don't have to put quite as much thought into the music as you would for your wedding, but it's still a good idea to include upbeat love songs, funny songs to dance to that will bring your ladies together, or even a playlist complete with wedding-related music like "Chapel of Love" or Louis Armstrong classics that guests of all ages will love.
