Now that you have chosen the shower invitation, it's time to continue the fun and check out some of our fabulous favor finds. Bridal shower favors should be at least one of three things: a. beautifully wrapped b. delicious c. useful. Those were our guidelines in researching this particular topic, and we think you're going to love what we've discovered!
Remember our ?Tea Cup Tie-Up? invitation that we mentioned would set a perfect mood for a garden tea party? Well, if you want to continue the theme, why not treat your guests to these whole leaf tea sachets. Beautifully packaged, these little sachets are available in four signature flavors and will be just the right touch to accent your table setting. What we love most about this sachet is how elegant it stands in your teacup?perfect for even the most proper of ladies!
If your ?bride to be? has a sweet tooth, and you would like for your guests to have a little something for their taste buds to enjoy, then you'll love these ideas. Remember our favorite Bachelorette, Trista, and her husband, Ryan Sutter? Well, we found the same cookies that Trista and Ryan gave their guests in their welcome bags, and think they would make beautiful (and delicious!) favors for a bridal shower. These yummy vanilla sugar cookies are in the shape of a four tier wedding cake, and are delightfully wrapped in cellophane and ribbon for each guest to bring home.
And wait until you see this next delectable treat personalized cheesecakes! These miniature cheesecakes are both gorgeous and scrumptious. Choose the bride and groom's new monogram, the wedding date or simply ?true love? to decorate the cheesecake. What a wonderful way to personalize this special occasion.
If you are planning a shower with a group of out-of-town guests or the wedding is being held in a secret destination, this fun airplane luggage tag makes a novel favor idea. A silver-plated airplane tag comes with a clear window to display your name and can be hung from any bag by its buckled leather strap. Print the name of each guest and double it as a fabulous place card holder at the shower. So, put your trays in the upright position because this shower is about to take off!
If the bridal shower is for girlfriends only, or perhaps a bridesmaid luncheon, then go with something fun and feminine. These I Do Lip Balms are champagne flavored, and are sure to be the toast of the party! In addition, Primal Elements soap slices are whimsical and delightful, and they are available in a number of styles and scents. We happen to love Lipstick, Cosmopolitan and Miss Behave for our girlfriends, but would love for you to browse and find something you adore. (You can buy them as individual slices, or you can buy a loaf and slice it yourself!)
Another token that makes scents is a beautiful lavender filled sachet. Crafted from dupioni silk, beautiful ribbons and a dainty flower, these sachets are available in a variety of beautiful colors. Perhaps you could choose the colors the bridesmaids are wearing, or match the sachets to the floral arrangements. Either way, they will make a stunning addition to any table setting.
Add a little special touch to the entire shower. Choose one of these beautifully made boxes or bags to match your wedding theme or color and fill each one with that something special for your guests. Or, how about a favor box that truly shows your gratitude? These pretty designs will provide a personal and sophisticated look that will run throughout the entire day. You may choose to fill it with your own gift idea or choose from a variety of yummy sweet treats or fragrant pochettes or sachets.
If elegance and simplicity are the idea around this occasion, Bellaterra is the perfect site for all of your party planning. At Bellaterra you will find an array of boxes and goodie bags combined with beautiful ribbons and monogrammed labels that will begin to create a favor that your guests will be talking about until the big day. Maybe you have a fabulous idea for a favor in keeping with your party theme, or maybe there is a sweet treat favorite of the bride. You can choose one of their precut and ready to be assembled favor kits and place that special favor inside. Or, check out their metallic CD holders. They are the perfect fit for a CD made up of the bride's favorite music, and sure to get everyone in the groove for the big day.
And, if you thought The Pink Puppy was through helping you plan that very special wedding shower, we are not! Stay tuned for more of our favorite finds for the bride and bridesmaids!
