Whether you’re a maid of honor who wants to thank everyone who helped out with the bridal shower, or the bride herself wanting to thank everyone for the fabulous gifts, you can make an Animoto video to do so.
Here's how...
Get Detail, Reaction and Emotional Shots

If the bridal shower has adorable details like a professional cake that looks both yummy and decorative or a stylish invite that was sent out for the party, take photos of them! They help capture the nuances of the day, along with acting as bookmarkers for your video.
For instance, a shot of a really fabulously wrapped present can show that we’re onto the gift-opening part of the event after watching a series of photos of everyone welcoming the bride to the party.
Be sure to get the classic reactions of your friend walking into the shower, opening presents or hugging her mom. These photos often tell more of a story than the staged photos. Extra brownie points if you get a shot of someone crying from happiness or genuinely cracking up with laughter!
Add Choice Words

With so many good friends and family members attending the bridal shower, you’re bound to have a blast. Feel free to add some words that encapsulate that fun. It might be in the form of a classic quote, a nice sentiment someone expressed to the bride or a heartfelt thank you to the guests.
Keep It Short and Sweet

Make sure you get plenty of the important family members in the video, but also remember to make the video too long.
Aim for a 2-4 minute video. Get those crucial shots of the bride opening the presents, hugging her family and friends, and everyone having fun. If you include too many shots that seem similar, they will look redundant (i.e. 20 shots of the bride opening a present). Remove some for the sake of brevity and keeping your video as entertaining as possible.
