#TeamBride Activities You Can Do This Summer Season
Dec
Excited for the summer season? Looking forward to relaxing and unwind with your favourite ladies in the world? This coming holiday season might just be your best vacation yet! Get ready to go on an adventure with your hand-picked members of the bride squad as you spend some quality time with your BFFs this summer season.
Giftware Direct has rounded up a couple of cool summer activities you can do with the maid of honour and the bridesmaids this holiday season so you get to unwind and put all the stress of wedding planning behind.
On the other hand, if you were indeed looking forward to the holiday break as a chance for you to finally focus on all the wedding details that need to be set, then we’ve listed down a couple of ideas that you can do with the ladies as well. No need to panic and no need to fear as this summer season is the perfect time to round up the girls and get down to business.
Hunt down the perfect bridal gown.
As part of their duty as the bridesmaids, going for bridal dress shopping with the ladies make the entire trip so much fun and exciting. They can give you their honest opinion on how a dress looks on you and which gown is a better suit for you, your body, and your wedding style. It might be a tiring, hot summer day but you can make the most out of the shopping trip to the CBD if you are having fun with the girls. Get reservations to the new restaurant that’s popular at the moment or make plans to head out to the club right after all the dress appointments and fittings.
Try out a new fitness trend together.
Get the girls out to try a new fitness class just as you stay fit for the wedding during the holiday season. As they say, the best way to be motivated to stay in shape is through a workout buddy and who else could be a better fit than the ladies who’ll be standing with you by the altar? Whether it is Pilates, cycling, hot yoga or Lagree Fitness, get physical with the bride squad and have fun sweating all those holiday carbs together.
Check out the destination wedding venue.
If you were looking forward to getting a breather this coming holiday season, plan a short trip with the ladies. It could anything as simple as a road trip to the next beach destination or a quick plane ride to see the sights at the neighbouring state. To further make the trip a bit more productive, why not take the ladies out to visit the destination wedding venue instead? If it is a quick plane ride away or a couple of hours on the road, make an adventure out of it! You get to enjoy the girls’ trip while also getting so much done for the wedding at the same time.
Relax and rejuvenate as a team.
As your ride-or-die girls, getting a little downtime with #TeamBride might just be the perfect break you need after the hectic holiday season. Have a day spa session or spend the entire weekend in a zen retreat so you can decompress and de-stress away from anything wedding-related. Reward the ladies with an amazing foot massage right after accomplishing so many wedding tasks throughout the holidays.
Celebrate the holidays together.
Deck the halls with the ladies and plan a small Christmas get together with the bridesmaids. Have the guys and the rest of the groomsmen join in to make it even more memorable. With the festive spirit of everyone, get to bond over the joyous holiday and give the bridal party enough time to get to know each other right before the wedding proper begins.
Soak up the sun by the pool or the beach.
Prep those tan lines together as a team while enjoying the summer sun by the water. Plan a day trip to the nearest beach with the ladies so you can thoroughly enjoy the summer sunshine and forget all about the wedding planning, even just for a day.
Host a staycation.
To have everyone on the same page, book a room or an AirBnb for the weekend to have a little pyjama party with the ladies. Use the time to orient the ladies with any responsibility you are assigning to them for the big day, ask their help about the wedding programme, or even have them help out in assembling invitations and envelopes – it’s all depending on how far you are in your wedding planning. On the other hand, if you want to simply bond with the ladies minus the wedding stress, take this time to hang out with the bridesmaids, hold a movie marathon or a DIY spa night so everyone gets to enjoy a stress-free and wedding-free weekend.
