Gluten-Free Bridal Shower Bliss

Your wedding experience is something you’ll remember for the rest of your life, hopefully as something that brings a smile to your face every time you think about it. For me, that’s exactly what happens. I feel so blessed to have had what I can only imagine was one of the most incredible wedding-planning years ever, and I have so many people to thank for that—my handsome husband, my family and, of course, my amazing friends that made up the bridal party.

Having a totally gluten-free wedding experience was really important to me so thankfully, my bridal party totally embraced my dreams for a Lilly Pulitzer-inspired gluten-free bridal shower!  So how did they (Stefanie, Ellen, Julie, Aline, Stacey, Ilana, Jennifer, Alli, & Theresa) do it totally gluten-free?

Start Planning Early

The girls hosting my bridal shower started planning about six months in advance to ensure that they had plenty of time to book a location that could prevent cross contamination in the food as well as offer a gluten-free cake and treats. The gals looked at restaurants, country clubs and hotels, but ultimately decided on the home of one of the girls with a catered lunch and cake from a local gluten-free bakery.

The Venue

Whether it’s a bridal shower or other social event you’re hosting there are some very important questions to ask a venue to ensure that you’ll have a safe gluten-free experience.  If you visit a location and the chef is too busy to come out of the kitchen and talk to you, leave immediately. That is unless there is a really, really good reason for the chef not meeting with you. Do not listen to the catering manager as they tell you how great the chef is. If the chef won’t meet with you to talk about a menu, walk away and find a location where the chef can’t wait to jump into the world of gluten-free cooking. You’ll also want to make sure the location is aware of preventing cross-contamination and has allergen-handling practices in place.

My bridesmaids decided to use a local restaurant that prepares Mediterranean food that’s 100% naturally gluten-free. Plus I’m not really the tea sandwich type of girl, so this style fit my personality perfectly. For lunch, we enjoyed lamb, chicken and beef kabobs, falafel, fresh and crisp salads and rice pilaf.

Bridal Shower Games & Activities

No bridal shower is complete without some cheesy girly games! If you don’t want your shower to involve wrapping you up with toilet paper, that’s totally understandable (I didn’t), so here are some of the games my bridesmaids came up with:

• Recipes from the Heart: Prior to the shower ask all of the guests to pick their favorite recipe. Email out a template for them to type/write the recipe on. Then at the shower, create a scrapbook where each person decorates the page with their recipe on it. You’ll want to bring glitter, stickers, markers, etc.  This book of recipes will become a keepsake for the bride forever. I have mine on my cookbook shelf and it’s one of my favorites to use because not only are there great recipes, but they come from people I love.

• Words of Wisdom: In each shower invitation include a notecard for guests to write advice on for the bride. Present these to the bride at the shower while she opens gifts.

• Missing Ingredients Game: Pick 10 super simple recipes (brownies, cake, cookies, etc) and type them out on cards, but leave out one important ingredient per recipe. At the shower, give each guest the recipes and have them guess which ingredient is missing in each recipe. Consider giving a prize to the winning guest such as a whisk, cooking spoon, apron or potholders!

The Cake/Cupcakes

There are so many options when it comes to gluten-free cakes and cupcakes for showers! There are hundreds of gluten-free bakeries now offering gluten-free options all across the world. To find a bakery near you, visit www.glutenfreeregistry.com. This site offers state-by-state listings as well as a global map with bakeries and restaurants.

If your friends are bakers, they may want to consider baking a gluten-free cake or cupcakes for you. This can be a really fun way for your gal pals to show some of their own creativity in the kitchen! Consider using gluten-free mixes from Betty Crocker, Pamela’s Products or 123 Gluten-Free. All are available on www.glutenfreely.com.

The Starbucks folks should cesnidor what it is like for a Mom to go in for a cup of coffee and have her small children look longingly at all the treats they could not have. For this reason, I stopped going to Starbucks. The addition of GF products will make me return.

. It's good to have mainstream opnitos, but healthy mainstream opnitos would be so much better. A lot of people are choosing gluten free just because it's healthier. No GMO, no MSG, no hydrogenated, use whole grain, avoid other common alergans such as corn and soy, and manufacture in dedicated GF facilities would be the best. Rice checks are gluten free but they still make me a little sick, but I would love to try them again if made in a dedicated facility. I'm hoping that the more big companies get onboard the better the products will be and more affordable. Thanks GM for getting started!

I am half Italian with grandmother from near Cortina in the Dolimite Alps north of Venice but my grnfdaather was from Abruzzi northwest of Rome and very likely to have mingled with Africans. I've had signs of Celiac since the age of 40 and finally was diagnosed by God last year when I was 53 and needing 18 hours in bed due to horrible cramping. I use gluteny shampoo without problems. If you use gluteny hand cream and didn't wash your hands before eating, anything you touch could poison you

many times over, that something in my enmroinvent is making me ill and have searched for answers, to no resolve. I have researched mercury poisoning and many other diseases, just trying to save my own life. I had heard about gluten being a possible cause, but it was the last thing on my list to research, since it seemed to be the least likely, or so I thought. I wish it had been my first, since it may have saved me years of being very ill. From my earliest recollections, age 2 or 3, I can remember having stomach acid come up into my mouth and trying to get that horrible taste to go away. I also had terrible stomach pain to the point my parents had to take me to the emergency room during a vacation when I was about 4 or 5 years of age. The doctors found, in my early twenties, that I have premature white blood cells and after bone marrow testing, I was told I have something called Leukocytosis, with possible Hodgkin’s in my future. At this point, I basically have no immune system left. I have had what they have called acid reflux and hiatal hernia to the point of waking with food and stomach acid in the mouth and sinuses since the age of 2 or 3 and bowel troubles that have been called anything from irritable bowel syndrome to spastic colon since that age, as well. The doctors have suspected many immune system disorders, from Lupus and Fibromyalgia to MS and Addison’s among many others. My teeth are flaking off and falling apart, as we speak, and I am very ill. My bones and joints ache all over and I run low grade fevers all the time and the fatigue is overwhelming. I have flairs where those symptoms get much worse. I have sleep apnea and have been recorded during sleep studies to fall off into REM sleep from being wide awake during these episodes of high fatigue, which are constant now. I have had several joints spontaneously fall apart for no apparent reason. I was told I have a vitamin D deficiency and have to take heavy doses of it. I suffer with a host of aliments and literally feel like I am dying slowly. There are nights that I lay awake at night, wondering if I will still be alive the following morning because I am so ill. I live in the state of Missouri and have not been able to work due to this illness for nearly 10 years now. I have looked into visiting the Mayo Clinic, but they don't take Missouri Medicaid. If anyone knows what I need to do to get help, please let me know, I am desperate and dying and have literally lost all I own due to this. The first thing the doctors did when they heard all the symptoms I have , was slap me on anti depressant after anti depressant, which caused me more harm. The list of drugs they have been trying to shove down my throat for various illnesses is well over 200, at this point. I do seem to feel a little better when taking steroids, but the side effects are horrible. I told them that I am not depressed; at least I don’t get depressed, as long as I can control the anxiety due to losing my life and vitality.I am not the only one in my family that is ill, either. My oldest daughter is a Type I diabetic, diagnosed at the age of 8, who is now 26 and my younger daughter, age 23, is now suffering from fatigue and stomach / bowel trouble at the same age I was when I started thinking this may not be how normal people go around feeling all the time. Many of my family members are ill with similar symptoms and some have a few completely different symptoms, thou not nearly as sick as I have become. Finding out what is wrong with me, will likely save an entire family. My youngest child, a son that is age 9, has been suffering with stomach troubles since the time he was born and he has started getting sudden nose bleeds, recently. I voiced my concern about my son’s health to his doctor on many occasions since he was born and other people in the family have noticed the dark circles under his eyes all the time. The doctor told me that these dark circles were due to allergies and that he had seen many children with allergies like that. Now I wonder just how close he was to being correct, yet not knowing what was really going on and that this could be Celiac Disease. My son did have some blood work come back with a red blood cell problem back a couple of years ago, but they ran another set of test and nothing appeared and it was dropped and forgotten about. Like I said, I think I have found what is wrong with all of us and just need the help and answers to save our lives.Sincerely,Deneen A. Riff

This articles may help: Quick and Easy Meals wiothut Gluten:There are dairy free substitutes for most things but watch out if you have a casein intolerance (a milk protein), as this is often added to improve the texture. This means you can't necessarily trust the dairy free flash if you're casein-intolerant. If you're avoiding dairy because of lactose intolerance, these should be fine, though. Also I've been told that butter is naturally lactose free, but does contain casein.As has already been stated, there are various nut milks, also rice milk, and there are nut butters, nut cheeses, and soy cheese/milk, though it's best not to overdo the soy, as this can cause problems if eaten every day.
