7 Wildflower Themed Bridal Shower Ideas

This blog post is all about wildflower-themed bridal shower ideas.

There is a reason why we decided to put love and flowers in the same sentence – the love of future brides blooms just like a wildflower in the field. Moreover, what is not to adore about the wildflower aesthetic?

While it has been an increasingly popular wedding theme, more and more brides opt for it for their bridal showers as well!

Sprinkling a little magic and a lot of wildflowers means adding an earthy and romantic vibe to the shower to spoil the bride-to-be.

And if you are here, that means you are considering weaving this theme into the party. So, to inspire your planning, we have rounded up some of the best ideas.

By the end of this blog, you will know precisely how to pull off the wildflower bridal shower theme!

Setting the Scene 

Want the wildflower bridal shower to be unique? Let’s go over the essentials.

Wildflowers have a rustic vibe, so rustic table settings are a good choice. Think wooden chargers, linen napkins, and gold accents. To add some elegance to the space, scatter loose petals or tiny bouquets along the table.

We recommend using mason jars or vintage vases filled with wildflowers to complete the table’s look. Daisies, lavender, sunflowers, and baby’s breath are all great choices. This way, you will amaze your guests by achieving that “freshly picked” charm.

Using hanging flower arrangements to create a garden-like effect when decorating the centerpieces. Hang them in hoops or let them dangle individually – whatever the space allows. Another wildflower bridal shower idea is to string real or faux wildflowers to make garlands.

In addition to flowers, you can decorate the space with chalkboards, wood signs, or acrylic boards. To tie everything together, add hand-lettered messages like “Welcome to [Bride’s Name]’s Wildflower Shower.”

Themed Food and Drinks

No event can go by without delicious food and drinks, so here are some bridal shower ideas on what you can serve the guests.

Fresh produce, such as a beautiful spread of fruits, cheeses, crackers, and nuts on a wooden board, is always recommended. Want to add a fun touch that’s both pretty and tasty? Decorate with edible flowers to evoke an awe-inspiring reaction. 

How about a DIY flower salad bar? Guests can customize their salads with fresh greens, nuts, and dressings and add edible flowers like nasturtiums, snapdragons, and calendula. 

Signature drinks are always popular among guests, so why not set up a self-serve bar with garnishes like edible flowers and fresh herbs? You can create a signature drink like lavender lemonade, elderflower spritz, or rose-infused Prosecco.

When it comes to desserts, you can either serve mini sweets like cupcakes or opt for the evergreen choice – one-tier cake. Whatever the choice, decorate them with fresh pansies, violets, or other edible petals.

Add a Floral Touch to the Party Favors

Guests always love to have something to remember the day by, so why not send them home with floral party favors? The most usual picks are scented candles with floral scents.

Choose anything from lavender and rose to jasmine and wrap them in floral-patterned paper. Another favorite is small tiny jars of local honey, which ties in perfectly with the wildflower theme. And you can always add a note, “Sweet like our bride-to-be!”

If you want something more authentic, we recommend mini wildflower bouquets. Wrap small bouquets of fresh or dried wildflowers in kraft paper and tie them with twine.

To make the guests feel even more special, add a tag that says, “Thanks for making this day bloom!”

Pressed flower coasters and seed packets are also unique and practical bridal shower ideas.

Hand out coasters with embedded pressed wildflowers or give each guest a packet of wildflower seeds. Attach a note saying, “Plant these and think of us!”

Plan Fun Activities

A wildflower bridal shower is not just about food, drinks, and gifts. It’s also about having fun, which is why we recommend organizing some of the following fun and engaging activities:

• Set up a personalized planting station where guests can plant wildflower seeds in small pots. Include tags with “Let Love Grow” as a sweet keepsake.
• Set up a flower bar with various blooms, vases, and tools and let guests create their own bouquets.
• Provide floral wire, tape, and a selection of flowers for guests to craft their own wildflower crowns.

Conclusion

Take a moment to savor it all and simply enjoy the wildflower bridal shower. Celebrate the bride-to-be by embracing natural beauty.
