Any ideas of where to have a bridal shower in the bucks, philly area?

I am looking into Bella Tori in langhorne and Maggiano's in King of Prussia.  Any other suggestions?  Is it necesary to provide alcohol at the affair.  I am planning on either a brunch or lunch menu. Thanks for your help!

    How many guests will you be having?  What is your budget?

  • NO.. you do not need alcohol at the bridal shower.. pitchers of sangria... or something like that.. but it is insane to think you should provide that at a shower.. it's not a reception.. nor a bacholorette party! so NOPE IMO... you are find with just soda and water. I think at least.
  • I'm having mine at Wild Violet's Tea Garden Cafe near Langhorne.  It's a really cute tea and sandwich cafe with a lot of charm.  And the price isn't bad at all.  There won't be any alcohol, and I really don't think it's necessary.

    Try Casa Di Lucias in Northeast Philly (on Bustleton...close to Feasterville) or Lamberti's Cucina also on Bustleton Pike. Casa Di Lucia will give you a private room, Lamerti's has a couple rooms but the smaller one is only semi-private so it depends on how  many people you will have. Both are very reasonably priced.

    There will be approximately 65 guests and I'm hoping to keep the budget around 2,000. Thanks for your help!
