“Green” Bridal Shower

Personalized Eco-Friendly Wildflower Bridal Shower Favor Bags

Want a beautiful bridal shower and help save the earth at the same time? How about a “green” bridal shower?

Invitations can be made by using recycled paper….there’s a paper that’s called a “seed” paper that you can decorate and plant after the shower is complete. You can serve organic or free ranged food and serve organic champagne. Everyone can show up on bikes or if possible rent a biodiesel limo. Gifts can have the “green” theme also… you can make something from recycled materials or you can purchase recycled, organic, or energy-saving gifts. If you’re wondering where to have this shower you could have it at a park or a farm.

There are so many possibilities for having a “green” bridal shower and the best part is that you will be saving the Earth at the same time.

Famous Couples Shower Theme

You hear it daily, whether you’re watching television or listening to the radio…some famous couple has split or hooked up. With the way media is today, somehow, someway, you will find out about a famous couple’s engagement, marriage, and most of the time, their divorce. How about a famous couple’s theme, where you can be “famous” for a day?

The theme works better as co-ed (but does not have to be) as guest could come dressed as a famous person like Angelina Jolie or as a couple like Tommy Lee and Pam Anderson…this could include historical figures also.

The invitations are flexible and should convey the humorous aspect of the party to follow and include a description of the festivities, since this is an idea that people might not be familiar with.

Food choices can be flexible depending on the attitude of the couple or you could have the food catered.

There are many activities that you could have at this type of shower…voting on topics such as “Best Couple that gets along,” “Worst Couple,” “Best Costumes,” etc… Also, another humorous activity that you can include is the couples giving advice as their characters such as “Hillary” warning the bride to keep an eye on her husband around interns. You could have trivia contest, where a list of facts about a celebrity are revealed slowly, as the guests take turns guessing who the famous couple is.

There are many possibilities with this theme. Having this theme gives everyone the chance to celebrate a wonderful occasion and be famous for a day, even if the person they are portraying has been married and divorced more than fifteen times…

The Cooking Shower Theme

Personalized Bridal Shower-Themed Gourmet-Chocolate Disc Tins

Does the bride-to-be already have everything and really needs nothing? Do they love to cook? Here’s an idea…have a cooking bridal shower!

Try to find attachments to accessories that the bride-to-be already has, such as an ice-cream maker for a Kitchen-Aid mixer or something different, like ornate pie pans from a different country.

Give the bride recipes of your favorite dish along with your gift…you can put the recipe on a 3×5 index card, decorate the card, and attach it to your gift. Even better, if you can get a scrapbook with waterproof pages, you can put the recipes in the book for the bride along with a picture of yourself along with the gift.

The bride will love this type of shower…she will have different recipes to try, attachments to create these wonderful dishes, and will remember all those who were with her for her special day.
