Looking for some gift inspiration? Try these cute county gift ideas.
Do you have a country girl on your hands? Does the bride-to-be have a penchant for the Old West? Then consider throwing her a country themed bridal shower.
Let the guest of honor be herself with you and her closest friends and family. If you have a large guest list you may want to rent a reception hall, this will give you plenty of room if your guests want to get out on the dance floor.
Arrange a square dance (even if your guests don't know the steps) this will be a blast for everyone that takes part.
1. Country DecorationsThis theme works perfect with the turquoise and copper color combination so keep this in mind when you're picking out the decorations.
Sunflowers make perfect centerpieces and they won't break the bank like roses. By wrapping them in bandannas in stead of ribbons you're further enhancing the look and feel of the party. Another cute idea is to use old cola bottles and mason jars as vases. If you can find vintage newspapers or magazines, coordinate with th guest and have them us them as their wrapping paper.
If you choose to throw a country wedding shower you will love the costume aspect of this theme. You can easily pick up a dozen bandannas and cowboy hats without straining your budget. Your guest's will also love taking them home as a fun shower souvenir or as consolation prizes for those who didn't get a prize.
3. The FoodDelicious! This shower affords a wide selection of different food offerings. Depending on the time of the day you are celebrating you can serve drumsticks, barbecued pork, or steaks with buns. Serve it with a side of corn on the cob, coleslaw, biscuits and watermelon or anther type of melon.
Make sure to offer several different bite-sized treats when you serve the cake keeping with the country theme. For cake ideas read our cake post.
