Red Cherry Themed Bridal Shower

Ideas and Inspirations | Photos and Galleries
Motif: Cherries

This cherry theme is perfect for a garden shower or bridal luncheon. The sundress invitation with its cherry red ribbon accent pairs perfectly with the cherry theme. The party invitation (available at FineStationery.com - item # is: 60508) is a book fold card that is inserted into the dress design. A matching response card is also available. A cute idea for each guest are the scalloped glassine sacks filled with fresh red cherries. Here the bags are displayed in wooden crates with a sign that reads "Please Enjoy". The tops of glassine bags are trimmed with scalloped scissors. The Bowl of Cherries Round Stickers from InvitationBox.com are perfect for attaching to favor boxes or the scalloped bags and are custom printed with the wording of your choice.

The cherry cupcake place card holders are perfect for both place settings and favors as each guest can later use them as picture holders. Another idea is to display a few card holders at the food table to identify the foods available or use them as a centerpiece on a pedestal plate holding pictures of the engaged couple. These adorable place card holders look good enough to eat and are available in our wedding store. (We also have small mini cupcake place card holders available)

The perfect finishing touch to this bridal shower of cherries is a dessert with Cherry-Vanilla cupcakes and you can find the recipe here.
