Tiffany Blue and Brown Flower Unity Candle and Tapers

What woman wouldn’t love to have a “Tiffany” bridal shower? Well now you can with this theme and it won’t cost you an arm and a leg…

Everything, from the invitations to the presents, can be done in the beautiful Tiffany blue and white colors and the cake can be created with the same colors also.

An idea for a game could be a “Breakfast at Tiffany” trivia game…party favors could be simple, such as a “Breakfast at Tiffany” DVD or almond jordans in Tiffany blue or a little more expensive, such as Tiffany frames or key chains.

Regardless, you will love this elegant theme and you’ll feel like a million bucks (without spending that much)!

Recipe Theme

“Love Beyond Measure”  Heart Measuring Spoons with Free Personalized Tag

Do you know a bride to be that’s learning how to cook or one who enjoys cooking? Does she have two, three, or four recipe boxes or books filled with recipes from appetizers to desserts? Then why not give a shower that relates to what she loves, a recipe theme…

Invitations can be related to the theme of the shower…you could have invitations set up to look like a recipe and ask the guest to bring a recipe on an index card to share. For decorations, you could have small kitchen gadgets and other kitchen utensils, such as wooden spoons, around the house.

For food, you could have meat, fruit, and veggie trays and finger sandwiches, but if you plan on keeping with the theme, you could have the guest make different types of quick dishes with items at the party. Games could be played, such as having several ingredients and coming up with a dish or whole meal using the ingredients…you could also play other games too.

Gifts for the guest could be small kitchen gadgets, such as small whisks, melon balers, veggie peelers, etc. or you could give the guest small jars of pre-mixed food with recipes, such as oatmeal cookies.

If you’d like something different, something unique, and you enjoy cooking and creating meals, then this theme is for you!

“Gone With The Wind” Theme

Flower Petals

Who hasn’t seen “Gone with the Wind” and wished to see Scarlett and Rhett marry at the end? Do you know someone who loves the movie and would like to be in that time period? Well bring that time closer to home with a “Gone with the Wind” theme!

Of course, the theme is based off of the movie, so have everything you can think of relating to the movie and/or that time period, from the decorations to the games. Invitations could be a picture of a southern mansion with an opening door and details on the inside or if you’re lucky, a picture of the mansion from the movie.

If possible, have your shower in a nice sized place, such as a banquet hall, and decorate it towards the movie…white pillars made from corrugated cardboard, inexpensive muslin draped over windows, potted ferns and gardenias in corners, anything that will go with the theme.

You could serve Southern-style type of food, such as fried chicken, cornbread or corn sticks, and greens. Lemonade or mint juleps could be served for drinks and for dessert, you could have little pecan torts.

Although Scarlett and Rhett never had a chance to marry, you can make it happen with this theme…if you loved the movie, you’ll definitely love this!
