Signage
Set the scene with the perfect signage for the bridal shower. Signage is such a great way to incorporate the theme or overall style of the event. It is ideal to have a bridal shower sign at the entrance of the even.
For example, if you are hosting a bridal shower at your house, then there should be a welcome sign at the front door or foyer.
Another idea is to use signage as a way to get guests to utilize party supplies. For example, things like games or a photo booth could encourage guests to get involved in the wedding shower activities. The picture above is a great activity for bridal parties. Each bridesmaid gets to Kiss the Miss Goodbye.
Donut Wall
This special day could also mean using food as the bridal shower party decor. Setting up a candy “Love is Sweet” bar or a donut wall are some of the best practices.
This example is one of our favorites. See how they used the donut wall for treats and they make a great display. We loved this idea so much and you could read more about it in our “Donut Mind If I Do” bridal shower theme.
Bridal Shower Table Decorations
Depending on the style and theme of the party, your tables decor will vary. Most bridal showers take place in the warmer months so it is common to see some Spring and Summer inspired decor. Typically you’d want to use a lot of light colors and florals.
Think of your table setting as eye candy for bridal shower guests. They will enjoy the design and see that it took some thought and time. Some things you will need to make the table setting look sophisticated like vases, a table runner, and centerpieces. See how you could DIY your own bridal shower centerpiece here.
Bonus points if you could make your table setting a part of the bridal shower theme! In this example, here is a table for a “When Love Gives You Lemons” bridal shower.
You could get fancy bridal shower tableware or you could get some color-coordinated paper plates and cups. It all depends on how you decide to style it and which tableware options work the best with the theme.
Tableware
Also, including little details like place cards and greenery are great examples of table decor. Metalic elements like rose gold and gold are also popular in bridal shower table decorations.
Labels and tags are ways to make the bridal shower more personalized. You could attach to bridal shower supplies like party favors and other small treats for the guests.
Balloon Garland
Balloons add more dimension and make any bridal shower or bachelorette party festive. They look great in indoor and outdoor settings.
Ballons may seem like a tedious and basic decoration, it’s actually very versatile. One of the best things you could do is make a balloon garland. They are very easy to DIY and they look very high quality when done correctly.

Rose Gold
One of the best bridal shower color ideas is rose gold. This color goes beyond the popular pink and blush colors. Rose gold adds luxury and glamor to bridal shower decorations. It is perfect for any feminine bridal shower theme.
Having a rose gold backdrop or balloons could really make a difference in the bridal shower decor. In this picture, there are heart-shaped rose gold balloons paired with clear rose old confetti balloons. This makes the decorations look more extravagant.

Bridal Shower Banner
The banner is the main element in the bridal shower backdrop. This is where you could get really creative with what the banner says. Some popular banner sayings are “future Mrs.” and “Bride to Be.”
A great bridal shower banner will make guests take a look and read your message for the bride-to-be. Banners play an important role in showcasing the event to a large group of people.
A quick view of it brings out any wall or dessert table. They could be original, theme-based, or classic. they could have glitter or have balloons and streamers. The main thing is, there has to be a creative banner for the bridal shower you will be hosting.
Photo Backdrop
Instead of having a banner with the bride’s name or a certain phrase, you could also use a banner with pictures of the couple. This is one way to incorporate a photo display in the bridal shower decor.
Bridal Shower Chair
Decorate her seat so that she feels special. This is another great idea for taking photos. Decorate the bride-to-be’s chair with tulle, flowers, balloons and so much more.

Macarons
Macarons are one of the most prettiest and delectable desserts we’ve ever experienced. They are dainty, colorful, and delicious. Macarons are an extra special treat because they are considered a fancy French dessert that tends to be pricey.
Once you have about 50 macarons you will need a fabulous way to display them on the dessert table. Yopu could do this by creating a bridal shower macaron tower.
