'Soothing Spa' Bridal Shower Theme

A spa bridal shower theme can be a refreshing and fun way to have a stylish shower that the guests and bride will enjoy. You can host a spa themed bridal shower at an actual day spa, or you can turn your home into a spa.

Color Scheme: When choosing a color scheme for a spa-themed bridal shower, think clean and soothing. Shades of white are always good choices, accented with calming shades of blue and green.

Invitations: Clean white invitations are best for a spa shower theme. Be sure to let guests know what the shower will include, for example if they will be getting massages or pedicures they may want to dress accordingly.

Flowers and Decorations: Add a spa feel to your home with lots of white candles and perhaps a soothing water fountain. Play soft music such as Enya or anything that will evoke a spa mood.

Food: Healthy yet delicious fare is great for this type of shower. Fresh fruits and vegetables with low-fat dip, delectable appetizers, champagne mimosas and light desserts made with fruit and whipped cream are great for spa themed showers. The point is, try to keep the food fairly healthy and light.

Gifts: There are a wide range of gift ideas guests can bring to a spa themed bridal shower. Candles and beauty products are both popular choices. A thick, terrycloth robe would be an appropriate gift, as would gift certificates for spa or salon services.

Activities: Spa treatments, of course! The bride and her guests can enjoy massages, manicures, pedicures and facials while eating delicious food, drinking champagne and enjoying time spent talking and laughing together.

With a little creativity, you can put together a fun and relaxing spa themed bridal shower that everyone will love. If you need more ideas or a little assistance, contact your local day spa or wedding consultant, who can help you plan a spa themed bridal shower that the bride will never forget!
