As far as pre-wedding events go, the bridal shower is one of the most exciting. Sure, the engagement party is great—you're still reeling from the happy news!—and the bachelorette party is the perfect time to get out of town with your closest group of family members and friends, but, if you ask us, these events can't touch the bridal shower. Focused entirely on celebrating the bride-to-be and helping to prepare her for married life, the bridal shower is your one and only opportunity to celebrate with just the most important women in your life—from your mom, mother-in-law, and sisters to aunts, cousins, and friends. It's a special occasion, and it should be treated as such. While themes and fun games help make a bridal shower special, we think the most important factor is the venue since it sets the vibe for the entire event. That's why we asked our friends at the Venue Report to help us round up some of the most unique, spectacular bridal shower spaces in the country; by that, we mean rooftop venues. 

While a rooftop venue works for any season, they're an especially great choice during the spring and summer when guests are itching to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather. Plus, when you're celebrating in an urban setting, they're a great way to treat guests to sweeping city views or the coolest attractions. But you won't just find rooftop spaces in big cities highlighted here—if seeing the ocean is more your thing, you'll be pleased to know we found a number of spaces that will allow you and your guests to check out the beach, too.

No matter what kind of bridal shower you're thinking of, there's a rooftop space out there to suit your needs. Here, ten of the most breathtaking rooftop bridal shower venues across the United States.

Wedding Dessert Ideas That Put the Fun in Funfetti

Before we mention anything else, it's important to note that Little Goat Diner serves some fun food: By fun, we mean funfetti cake, tonkatsu sandwiches, veggie breakfast quesadillas, and just about every other dessert imaginable in an elevated diner setting. Head up to the roof for some privacy, sunshine, and, of course, all of the treats while you enjoy the company of your most cherished gals.

What's arguably Malibu's most of-the-moment rooftop venue is located at The Surfrider, a boutique hotel overlooking the coast. Enviable furniture fills the hotel and tops the rooftop deck that is focused on serving food and drink that is California to the core. With only 20 guest rooms, taking over this stunning spot is a breeze for a bridal shower-turned-sleepover.

As of March, The LINE introduced its newest space at the hotel: A rooftop lounge called P6, a nod to its past as a parking garage. Sure to be Austin's hottest rooftop, the space will have panoramic views across the lake, the Austin skyline, and down Congress Avenue.

Brooklyn Grange

If you need to get out of the city without actually getting out of the city, Brooklyn Grange is your shower spot. Situated at an organic farm on a rooftop in Brooklyn, you will toast and celebrate amongst lush veggies beds overlooking the Manhattan skyline. We love the idea of using pillows on the floor and low tables instead of a traditional table-and-chair setup.
