Before the wedding whirlwind kicks into high gear, the bridal shower gives everyone a chance to slow down and celebrate the bride in style. And what better way to do that than over brunch?
The right details can turn a brunch-themed shower into a cherished memory for the bride-to-be, filling it with delicious bites, bubbly drinks and plenty of time to mingle.
We’ve rounded up five of our favorite bridal shower brunch ideas to help you plan everything from custom invites to thoughtful party favors.
1. Set the Scene With Custom Decorations
Start setting the tone early by focusing on ideas that tie the brunch theme together:
- Custom invitations: Send out bubbly brunch-themed invitations to give guests a sneak peek of what’s to come.
- Table decor: Personal touches like centerpieces featuring the bride’s name or wedding date are instant conversation starters. Fresh flowers add natural beauty, doubling as centerpieces and photo-worthy details that elevate the room.
2. Create a Bubbly Atmosphere With a Mimosa Bar
A bridal shower brunch isn’t complete without a little sparkle. A mimosa bar is a fun, interactive way to let guests sip and mingle. All you need are:
- Bottles of brut
- A mix of juices like orange, peach and cranberry
- Bowls of fresh berries for garnishes
Many restaurants with private rooms for bridal shower bookings, like The Gregory, offer mimosa bars as part of their menus, so setup and cleanup are effortless.
3. Plan a Menu of Sweet and Savory Bites
Balance is key. Offer small plates that are easy to enjoy while mingling — mini quiches, croissant sandwiches and seasonal fruit platters are popular choices. For dessert, a statement cake or cupcakes with bride-themed toppers add a playful touch.
4. Entertain Guests With Fun Bridal Shower Games
Brunch is about connection, and simple games can help break the ice. Print out classics like “Bridal Bingo” or “He Said, She Said” to keep the laughter flowing.
Send guests home smiling with brunch-themed favors such as mini prosecco bottles, gourmet coffee samples, gift bags or custom-baked cookies.
