Wedding Shower Themes from N to Z

Wedding showers are traditionally hosted by a close friend of the bride - often her sister or the maid of honor. If you have the honor of hosting the party, a wedding shower with a special theme can help make it a party the bride will treasure forever.

There's a wedding shower theme idea for each letter in the second half of the alphabet. (For the first half, check out Wedding Shower Themes from A to M).

Naughty Nightie Wedding Shower
Host a Naughty Nightie party with all hostess credits going to outfit the bride for her wedding night. If she's really daring - let the guests pick out her trousseau!

Over the Years Wedding Shower
Every friend has special memories. This wedding shower theme celebrates them. Have each guest come prepared with old photos and stories starring the bride-to-be.

Put It In a Basket Wedding Shower
Have some fun with a basket themed wedding shower. Serve snacks in baskets, give out little candy basket or flower basket favors, and ask each guest to bring a themed gift basket for the bride and groom.

Quilting Party Wedding Shower
For the crafty bride, hold a new-fangled quilting bee. Instead of quilting, though, provide a plain white quilt or tablecloth stretched on a quilting or stretcher frame. Put out an assortment of fabric paints and pens so that guests can personalize the gift with special messages.

Ready for Anything Wedding Shower
Host a wedding shower that will leave the new bride equipped to deal with any emergency domestic life might throw at her. Guests can get really creative with gifts - a gift certificate for a local restaurant for the 'burned dinner emergency', a basket of cleaning supplies for the 'my mother will be here in an hour emergency' - you get the idea!

Save It For A Rainy Day Wedding Shower
Into every life a little rain must fall. Ask guests to choose gifts that are pick-me-ups on those days that you just need a little something special. To make it extra special, include a small blank card and envelope with the invitations, and have each guest write a joke, a prayer or a special wish on the card. Collect the sealed envelopes at the party and present them to the bride in a decorated 'rainy day box' - to be opened one by one when she needs a special wish from a friend.

Taste of Decadence Wedding Shower
Host a totally decadent wedding shower for the bride and groom, and let everyone indulge in their guilty pleasures for the night. Serve cheesecake and triple rich chocolate mud pie, espresso with real whipped cream and truffles. Ask guests to bring inexpensive gifts that fit the theme - those little pleasures that keep life interesting.

Undercover Wedding Shower
It's an undercover bedroom shower theme. Invite guests to come dressed for bed and have a good old-fashioned slumber party. Gifts should be 'anything for the bedroom' - and let the guests interpret that any way they want.

Varieties Wedding Shower
Variety is the spice of life, and a Varieties wedding shower theme capitalizes on it. Serve 'variety' snacks - the classic Chex Mix, bowls of 'variety' candies from the supermarket, pizza rolls in a variety of flavors. See how clever guests can get with 'variety' themed gifts: six washcloths in assorted colors? A variety of herbal teas and a teapot and mugs?

Waterworks Wedding Shower
For an unusual wedding shower idea, rent a hotel swimming pool for the evening and have a pool party! All the gifts should have a 'water' theme - whether it's gifts for the bath, or a coffeemaker (you put water in it, right?)

X-tras Wedding Shower
A wedding shower theme for the couple who is combining homes or has already set up housekeeping. Instead of the usual house-building gifts that are traditional for wedding showers, challenge guests to come up with gifts that fit into the category of 'the little extra's.

Years from Now Wedding Shower
Why wait for the first wedding anniversary to give a gift of paper? Include an anniversary year with each wedding shower invitation. Let each guest gives a special wish for where the couple will be on that anniversary, and a gift appropriate for that year.

Zoo Wedding Shower
Serve animal crackers and cotton candy, decorate with stuffed animals - and suggest gifts that have something to do with animals (leopard print teddies, anyone?)
