We’ve got you covered with ideas for shower invites and decorations, to menu ideas to match the brews, and finally couple’s shower favors. All beer-inspired, of course!

Country-style Decor: One Option for a Beer-themed Shower


We went for a Western spin on this couple’s shower decor—a great choice if your venue will be outdoors, like your backyard. It keeps the mood casual and fun, perfectly in keeping with the beer theme!

Beer inspired decor wedding shower

Say howdy to arriving guests with this charming idea from Pear Tree Blog, a rustic door photo display (1). This could double as both a welcome sign to the event and an alternative guestbook idea. How? Prepare wedding wish cards that guests can fill up, sign, then pin onto your photo display. 


For real eye-catching accents, assemble a couple of cowboy boot centerpieces (2) following our easy, 5-step tutorial. Then, position these alongside your beer bar or station. Themed, too, of course in creative country style—like this DIY wheelbarrow drinks bar (3) we spotted via Wellington Weddings.


And for the food spread for your couple’s shower, what would play up the Western theme better than a tailgate BBQ and brews setup (4), as featured on Frog Prince Paperie? See our post links below for menu ideas to match those mugs of beer!
