We\u2019re going to help you dive into a few COVID-friendly ways that you can still celebrate your engagement alongside your spouse, in addition to having a safe bridal shower and bachelorette party with the girls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting with the engagement party &#8211; let\u2019s face it, we\u2019re all tired of Zoom meetings and virtual gatherings where everyone just talks over each other or awkwardly stares at each other. If having a small gathering with your closest friends while wearing masks doesn\u2019t sound appealing, consider having a drive-by celebration where friends and family can still come see you in person to drop off a gift or simply speak their congratulations to you as a newly engaged couple. Human interaction is definitely lacking these days, so this could be a great compromise in terms of being face to face with your loved ones!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pre-COVID bridal showers might include a brunch or lunch along with activities for the guests to play to see who knows the couple best, usually followed with a little prize of some sort. There is absolutely still a way to get the games going from a distance with websites like Kahoot! &#8211; which allows users to create quizzes that can be answered individually and automatically calculates the scores that are shown on a leaderboard in between each round. Consider sending party favors to each household ahead of time so that everyone can raise a glass from the safety of their own homes. Have your guests send gifts to the bride\u2019s home with a special note not to open until the day of the bridal shower.<br><br>As the Maid of Honor or Mother of the Bride, be sure to still make your bride feel like the guest of honor by decking out her bar cart with a few options for drinks (Bloody Mary? Mimosa? Wine? What does she like?!). Also think about setting up a special chair, making sure she has a sash, and even providing her with a meal for her to eat before or after (or during, who are we to judge?) that will make the day feel fabulous!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We know the term \u201cstaycation\u201d has been thrown around a lot lately, and we\u2019ve noticed that bachelorette parties are still happening &#8211; even if it is just renting out an AirBnB a couple of blocks away for your MOH to decorate for the most epic\/socially distanced sleepover of the year with your best friends!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of if you\u2019ve decided to postpone your wedding or if you are going to proceed with your original plan and just follow COVID guidelines, there is absolutely still a way to have your dream wedding, and in the end, you will still be married to the love of your life!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consider a drive-by engagement party, staycation bachelorette party, and virtual bridal shower games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":67,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[42],"tags":[37,41,36,34,38,35,40,39],"class_list":["post-63","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bridal-shower","tag-activities","tag-bachelorette","tag-bridal","tag-covid","tag-engagement","tag-friendly","tag-gathering","tag-party"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>COVID-Friendly Bridal Events - Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/point200.com\/?p=63\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"COVID-Friendly Bridal Events - Blog\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Consider a drive-by engagement party, staycation bachelorette party, and virtual bridal shower games.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/point200.com\/?p=63\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Blog\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-02-08T22:08:46+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-02-23T16:59:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/point200.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/R-701.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1068\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1600\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\">\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutes\">\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/point200.com\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/point200.com\/\",\"name\":\"Blog\",\"description\":\"Our best wedding tips &amp;
