Pretty Pink Bridal Shower Party Ideas

From hip floral designs to whimsical polka dots, let’s get creative with planning your event using elements inspired by beautiful patterns of the sassy color pink.

Be Hip with a Floral Pattern in Pink and Brown

Choosing a brown and pink color palette with a floral pattern makes for a hip yet ultra girly designed theme. Since chocolate brown is a versatile color, you can coordinate it with a variety of items (e.g., ribbons, party plates, table cloth) in different shades of pink from light pastel to vibrant fuchsia. Ribbons, for instance, come in a variety of elegant pink shades and textures. In this picture, we’ve used a sheer organza ribbon to decorate a keepsake box for a guest.

Decorating Tip #1: Try brown and pink on a leopard design for a lingerie bridal shower theme.

Decorate Using Hot Pink and Black Stripes

A pink and black color palette in a striped pattern makes for a chic bridesmaid’s dinner party. For the table, use a black tablecloth as the backdrop, then add your contrast using accents of silver and hot pink. Alternatively, you can also use a pink tablecloth with black and silver as your accent colors. In this example, some paperweights have been tied with hot pink satin ribbons. Use them to decorate place settings as cool place card holders. Simply attach a card to the ribbon of each paperweight.

Decorating Tip #2: For a bold black and pink color palette, you can also apply this combination to a pattern such as toile or paisley.

Have Fun with a Gingham Pink Pattern

For a relaxing afternoon tea party with a country feel, a classic gingham pattern sets the tone for a warm and informal affair. Use shades of yellow or lavender as decorative colors with subtle contrast. Apply this approach when searching for party items such as tableware and favors. In this example, a simple pink sachet can serve as an attractive favor that adds a joyful spirit to the table. Fill each one with your favorite confection such as bubblegum, Lindt® chocolate truffles, or chocolate hearts.

Decorating Tip #3:You can match a pink gingham pattern with colors such as lime green, fuchsia, and even chocolate brown.

Use Polka Dots for a Pink and White Party

To mimic a whimsical polka dot effect , add a cheerful twist to the table by sprinkling pink and white confetti. Candy also makes a great substitute, try using white and pink conversation hearts, marshmallows, or jellybeans to produce a similar effect. For elegant table favors, present colorful favor bags filled with traditional wedding confections such as Jordan almonds. As a scented favor, you may also want to try creating a sachet filled with rose or vanilla-infused potpourri.

Decorating Tip #4: You can also apply this color scheme to a clean geometric pattern consisting of either large circles or squares.
