There are very few opportunities for women to be as girly as they want to be. A bridal shower is one of these times and therefore it should be as fun and creative as possible. If you are planning a bridal shower for your friend, think about something that makes her unique and do this as the theme of the event. Here are some bridal shower ideas that you can play with.
High School Never Ends
Look back to the days when the bride was still in high school. Think of some songs that were popular during the time she graduated, perhaps something from the '80s. You can make a CD mix with all these songs in it and give it away to the guests.
What fashion items were popular during the bride's high school days? Get some banana clips and some big hoop earrings and give them out as souvenirs. Don't forget the jelly bracelets!
To dress yourselves up, put on some green, blue, and pink eye shadow, some metallic nail color, and mascara in bright blue colors. Do the shower to the tune of music from Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink.
Wine and Chocolate Party
When people go to wine country and take a tour of the vineyards there, they often have the luck to experience "wine and chocolate" day. You can make one of these yourself for the bridal shower. Get some easy wines like champagne and merlot and ask your guests to bring with them something that has chocolate. Think croissants, crepes, and brownies with chocolate in them.
For the room decoration, get some velvet pillows and heavy drapes for the walls. Play some Moroccan tunes and use glass flutes for drinking the wines in.
Other great bridal shower ideas include a Christmas theme where you can serve eggnog on ice. Or do a dancing queen theme by wearing some tacky prom dresses that you had before and pile on the body glitter. Take the bridal shower out to a local karaoke bar.
Whatever theme you end up using for the bridal shower, the important thing is that you make the bride feel special on her last party as a single woman. Be creative and make it as fun as you can for everybody.
