Wedding Shower Ideas for the Modern Couple

Whether you are a straight or a same-sex couple, who says you have to have individual parties before your big day? Why not think about a joint Couple’s Wedding Shower to celebrate together with all of your family and friends?

Bubbles

Guys, just as much as girls love an afternoon of sipping bubbles, mixing cocktails and enjoying a fabulous spread of food. Check out our four ideas below for a Couple’s Wedding Shower.

Afternoon BBQ

Summertime screams – BBQ! We all love a good BBQ, sitting around chatting, enjoying the smell of food cooking on the BBQ, having a firepit and even toasting marshmallows. Throw in a few beers and some wine and you have a fantastic evening with all your friends. Check out the BBQ, Friends, Drinks Couples Wedding Shower invitations that we have designed. Perfect for the modern couple who are looking for a fun party.

Garden Party

Grab some rugs, some buckets of ice, some bubbles and beers and of course some grazing platters of finger food. Invite your friends and family and enjoy an afternoon outside in the sunshine. This idea is perfect if your friends have kids because they are welcome to come too.

Cocktails and Cake

We all know Gin is now the alcohol of choice when it comes to cocktails. What better way to celebrate your upcoming nuptials than with a big goblet of gin and some friends, top it off with a slice of beautiful cake and voila, a fabulous afternoon can be had by all. This also gives you a chance to have a practice wedding cake made and you can taste each flavour on the day.

Camping

This idea is suitable for a smaller group of close friends. There are two variations here. Grab some tents and some camp food and head off for a night away, or else pop up some tents in your garden and spend an evening by the campfire/firepit with some warm blankets. What a way to make special memories with all your friends before your big day.

Have a Hoppy Easter

Spring has sprung and Easter is on the way. Yes, yes I know it’s over a month away but I know you guys like to be organised. My kids are getting excited at the prospect of endless amounts of chocolate, seriously you’d think they get no treats!! How is Easter celebrated in your house?

Easter Gifts or Chocolate

What do you do for Easter? Each family is different. Some have the Easter Bunny whereas others don’t. Some go for chocolate eggs whereas others go for gifts. No matter what way you celebrate, chocolate does seem to always be involved in one way or another.

I’ve had a look at some chocolate ideas and some alternatives to chocolate and thought I’d share a few crafty ideas. What better way to celebrate then to put together a few homemade gifts.

Homemade Gifts

Check out some of these easy homemade Easter gift ideas.

Easter Carton Treats – an idea from The Crafty Chicks
Easter DIY Painted Cartons – an idea from Maddy Hague
Lindt Bunny in Mason Jar – an idea from Xeno Biophilia

Gift Tags

As I love stationery, I love beautifully wrapped gifts. The addition of a gift tag is so simple but is a beautiful finishing touch to your gift which makes it look more special.

To celebrate Easter and to make your gifts prettier and your life easier, I’ve created some printable Easter Gift Tags for you. Simply print them out, cut them and tie them onto your gifts.
