Planning a Lilly Pulitzer Themed Bridal Shower

When planning a bridal shower, it is important to come up with a festive theme. If the bride is a dyed in the wool preppy who loves all things pink and green, then your choice is easy. Naturally, you will want to throw her a bridal shower with a Lilly Pulitzer theme!

Throwing a Lilly Pulitzer themed shower will be a lot of fun, and actually will be quite easy to pull off. With pink and green as your color palette, it will be quite simple to coordinate all of the elements to make one fabulous party for the bride. Having a great theme also helps when it comes to choosing the food, flowers, and favors.

For décor, you can use Lilly Pulitzer fabric to make a tablecloths for the table where the food will be served. The flowers will be easy: big bunches of pink lilies, of course! If you are using heavily scented flowers like stargazer lilies, though, do not put them on the table with the food. Display them in other parts of the room, and use something unscented like tulips for the food table.

Speaking of food, think pink! Pink cocktails are a must, preferably served in a stylish glass like a martini glass. Silver mint julep cups would also be a great choice, and they could double as the favors for the guests to take home.

After the bridal shower, the bride might want to consider using the same theme as inspiration for her bridesmaid gifts. It is a great way to show the attendants how much she loved the bridal shower. A really sweet bridesmaid gift that would tie in with the Lilly Pulitzer theme is a set of bridesmaid jewelry handcrafted with pink and green Swarovski crystals – adorable! To make it even more special, present the jewelry in a monogrammed pink and green makeup bag.

Bridal showers are such a pleasant and memorable time for the bride, her friends, mother, and sisters. Make it even better by planning a party with a great theme, like the designs of Lilly Pulitzer. And make sure to take lots of photos of the whole group decked out in their finest pink and green dresses!
