Bridal Shower could date back to 1890s. It is special for the women who are going to be brides. Bridal shower in Asian Countries is not as popular as it is in Canada and USA. Hundreds years ago, there was a legend story that showed us how bridal shower started. It happened in Holland, Europe. A pretty young girl was in love with a guy who was a miller. For the wonderful bridal shower, favors are necessary. The better the food is prepared, the happier the friends would be. Fruits and sweet deserts place the important role in this event. Pitaya is the best fruit which should be shown in the banquet. This kind of fruit promises a prospect future for the new couple. If you can find a tree with a beautiful figure, you can put chocolates on the tree. And make the chocolates look like lanterns. Drinks could be champagne or red wine. It is not necessary to make the champagne split out eject everywhere because the bridal shower usually takes place inside the room. A cake with the bride’s name is grand finale and it is the main attraction for the banquet. The colorful food could make the bridal shower a sweet memory. It is not just the stuff to get rid of the hungry but is the great art for the event. The miller was poor with no big fortune, but it was not because the boy didn’t have the ability to make money. Actually, this miller made a lot of money by working himself. He was a nice guy with a kind heart. He gave his money to the poor people around him. The girl didn’t care whether he was rich or not but her father did care. Before they went to the altar to celebrate their marriage, her father stopped them by giving nothing to her daughter which made them could not live their own life after they got married. When the miller’s friends noticed this problem, they thought that this guy was so nice that he deserved a happy wedding, so they gave their own stuff to the new couple. With the bed sheet and cosmetics given by their friends, as the dowry, this young couple made a successful wedding and they started their own life. It seemed they “showered” the girl. Years later, in our modern society, before the wedding, the female friends of both the bride and groom would get together to take this Bridal Shower. Big events can’t succeed without food, do you agree? Can you imagine how it would be if there is no feast in a wedding? For Bridal Shower, it is the same---food should be well prepared.
