Vintage Bridal Shower Theme
A vintage bridal shower theme brings to mind traditional ideas. Think ladylike...pearls...dresses...purses. Picture the moms and daughters from the classic tv shows like "Leave It To Beaver" and "Father Knows Best", and their households. Clean simple elegance applies.
Vintage can refer to a certain period of time. The following ideas are based on a "fifties" timeframe. You may also choose the Roaring Twenties, known for Flappers and the Charleston dance, or some other era that you think would work for your event. • Your ideal location, if the numbers permit, is a private home where you can easily create the desired coziness of this theme. Otherwise, a rented hall or restaurant are options. You might even find an old fashioned one that reflects the mood you are trying to create. • Announce this party theme with a simple
vintage designed invitation
in a solid color. Request that your guests "dress" the part. This will add to the fun.
Many will still have access to the genuine articles.
• Decorations can be simple. Choose a color scheme such as red and white, green and blue, or pink and brown. Use a linen tablecloth, and top it with a runner with a traditional design. Have plenty of vases filled with fresh flowers, on available tables. Place framed pictures of the couple around the room.
• This is one party where guests will expect to play
vintage bridal shower theme games. • The menu for your party can include traditional homemade items. Finger sandwiches work well with this theme. So do baked breads, and simple salads. The dessert could be a sheet or layer cake in the party colors.
• Add a traditional punch to your Vintage theme party menu.
