If you are in charge of throwing a bridal shower for the the bride-to-be who seems to have everything… we have the perfect shower theme!

Throw her a “stock the wine cellar” shower. It’s simple and easy. Guests who are invited to the shower should bring a bottle of wine for the bride-to-be. Make sure to enjoy the festivities yourselves and serve great wine. After the shower is over- the bride-to-be will have a fully stocked wine cellar. Not to mention this is a great way to start off her first year of marriage.

For fun invitations and party favors make sure to check out these wine items.

We love bright colors for summer weddings. For those brides who also gush over bright colors too, think about incorporating a vibrant red it into your wedding. Since red is a bright color feel free to pick an accent color that is a little softer… think peony pink or champagne.

Enjoy the weekend!
