Bridal Shower Luau Party Theme
Host a bridal shower luau party theme, for an event that will be remembered by all. Meaning "feast" in Hawaiian, a luau is used to celebrate a special occasion. So if the bride-to-be (or couple) likes tropical breezes, warm sand, and cool drinks, then a luau party it is!
Do you live near the beach or any body of water? That's the perfect location, weather permitting. You can also have fun creating this theme in a private home or rented hall.

• Cards that have tropical scenes, palm trees, or a map of Hawaii are some of your options.
