The bride to be has plenty of showers in her honor. There's the general shower but can also be a lingerie, Christmas ornament, or even a fill our wine rack shower. What does the groom to be get? Well an emerging shower, if you will, for him is called the "Honey Do" wedding shower party. Guests are encouraged to bring items that'll help him do the projects on his "honey do" list like fixing a loose shelf or hanging pictures.
I know when I'm invited to a wedding where I know the groom better than the bride, I tend to get him something that is just for him. When a guy gets married, life defintely changes and needs of the household grow. That sqeaky door that was never a problem before will soon be in need of repair. It's for these little projects around the house that a guy may not be fully prepared for so the "honey do" party was born. While I have only personally heard of "honey do" parties on a few occassions, there are a wonderful idea to give the groom his own party with his own gifts.
What makes a good "honey do" gift? Tools, ofcourse! To complete most of the items on a to do list you will need some sort of tools. Cordless tools make a wonderful gift for the groom to be. That way those projects that are too noisy to be done in the house can easily be moved to the backyard. Gifts like hammers, drills, screwdrivers, and wrenches all make great honey do wedding shower gifts. If the couple is moving into a new place, then a leveler would be great to help hang pictures and shelves. A stud finder will be useful under any cir cum stance th at involves nai ling something to the wall.
A honey do list isn't always about fixing what is broken. Sometimes it's about yard work or outdoor cooking. A nice grill set or grill would be a great honey do gift. If the couple will have any size of a yard, then they will need plenty of gardening items to keep it looking sharp.
Most honey do wedding shower parties are co-ed. Party games can include giving the female a honey do list and asking them to name the tool required to complete the task. Usually finger food or sandwiches are served at a honey do wedding shower. Leave the dainty cake and punch for the bridal shower.
The honey do list is neverending and sometimes takes special tools and equipment. A honey do wedding shower can help a couple, especially the groom, meet the rising demands of their new household. A honey do party is a nice gesture to show that the groom is much appreciated by his friends and family. So many of the wedding details are centered around the bride that a honey do party really puts the spotlight on the groom. A honey do wedding shower is a perfect party solution to celebrate the marriage with everyone.
