Lavender Bridal Shower Ideas – Mood Board

Lavender Bridal Shower Ideas: A bridal shower is a time to celebrate the magic of a bride’s upcoming wedding, and there’s nothing more romantic and whimsical than lovely lavender. This plant has become a staple in itself over time, with its beautiful blooms, patented purple colors, and heavenly scent. Not to mention, it adds an incredible flavor into cakes and cocktails, too! Creating a bridal shower theme centered around this sweet flower is the perfect way to ensure the party is unforgettable.

The simplest place to start is, well, the floral arrangements! Spritely buds of lavender make for beautiful table centerpieces, or even bouquets dried and hung along doorways offer a breathtaking look and a relaxing aroma. You can sprinkle lavender pieces across tables as decoration, and hang up twinkling lavender-hued lighting for an extra dose of magical ambiance. Purple balloons, lace overlays for tables, and big lavender bows for chairs are also extra special touches. Lavender seems to pair wonderfully with yellows and lemons, so compliment the theme with this aesthetic in the form of food and décor. Of course, you can’t forget fabulous favors that keep with the theme, as well. Opt for burlap-tied goody bags or baskets full of lavender gourmet treats like chocolates, lavender soda, miniature cakes, and drink mixes.

Rose Gold And Eucalyptus Bridal Shower

J’aime Events did a lovely job of designing this gorgeous Rose Gold And Eucalyptus Bridal Shower.  Simple yet charming, each decoration for the event reflected the beauty and joy of the upcoming nuptials to perfection. The venue was absolutely stunning, with high ceilings and massive windows that displayed a pretty view for all of the guests to enjoy looking at.  

With such big windows the lighting in the room was superb, all of the decor was light and elegant, creating a sweet and inviting vibe throughout the venue. There was even cozy seating on fantastic white furniture for everyone, giving the group a comfortable option for visiting together. 

A snack table was set up to the side with the large window as a wonderful backdrop.  To enhance the look and incorporate the theme, a cute hoop with eucalyptus was hung in front of the window. This table was set up buffet style so the guests could easily serve themselves.  Delightful truffles were frosted in different ways to add color and variety.  There were also adorable little gift boxes for the guests to take home set to the side on this table. 

The cake was a beauty with dark and light frosting blended together on the exterior.  It had a gorgeus rose bloom on top and eucalyptus as well.  A tasty range of beverages was offered as well in elegant champagne glasses.

To emphasize the reason for this lovely gathering, a custom graphic was made and framed in white to match this elegant theme beautifully. It read, “Pop the Bubbly She is Getting a Hubby,” in lovely lettering.

A wonderful idea used for this party were little recipe cards that were added to the invitations encouraging guests to write out their favorite meals for the bride so she could start off her collection.
