Bridal Shower Ideas: DIY Raspberry Tart Bar

Accepting an offer to be the maid of honor means more than just being a special part of the reception. It means taking on the role of ultimate caretaker, venerated second opinion-giver, and of course, the ultimate party planner. From aiding in Big Day decision making to mitigating stressful situations, as the maid of honor your job is to make the lead-up to the bride's walk down the aisle a seamless one. While giving your opinion on trumpet-style dresses, planning a raucous bachelorette party, and getting the bride ready on her big day is are all important jobs, one of the biggest jobs is planning her bridal shower.

One aspect of the bridal shower that you can personalize and make into a fun activity is the dessert station.

With Greenspan's delicious tart shell, Driscoll's festive and fresh berries, and a few tasty toppings, you can create a unique and customizable food bar that the bride and her guests will love. Here are a few ideas to get you inspired:
