Easy Wedding Shower Decorations

Knowing they are the one responsible for the wedding shower can send some people straight into a panic attack. Planning a wedding shower doesn’t have to be painful. It can actually be easy and fun. Using simple wedding shower decorations can eliminate the stress of hosting.

Choosing a theme of the wedding shower is a great place to start planning. Traditional wedding showers of yesterday didn’t usually have a special theme, today however it is extremely popular to pick an original theme for the shower. Picking a theme also helps the hostess find a place to start. It can actually make planning a lot easier when you are planning for a more specific event.

If the bride has chosen to have a theme wedding, the hostess may consider doing the shower in the same theme or a coordinating theme. However, it is not necessary, as the hostess has the right to choose any theme she wishes for the shower.

No matter what theme you choose, some of the best decorations for any shower are balloons. If you need to decorate in a flash, simply buy balloons pre-filled with helium. You can never have too many balloons, so be sure to get an adequate amount for the shower. It is best to stick with the colors of the wedding, the bride’s favorite colors, or colors that coordinate with the shower theme.

Another easy decorating option is to make posters with different pictures of the couple on them. By blowing up a picture of the couple, sticking it to a poster board, and decorating the poster board with markers, sequins, and glitter, you can make an easy shower decoration. Use a different picture for each poster you make and hang them around the shower location.


New brides need a lot of advice, even if they don’t use it. Keeping this in mind, an advice book would not only be considered an easy decorative addition to the shower, but also useful to the bride to be.

To turn a plain journal into a decoration, hosts should first choose a journal with a decorative front. Then, place the journal on a small table with a beautiful feathered pen. Finally, decorate around the journal with greenery, flowers, and candles. By doing this, a simple book becomes a beautiful scene.

Food can certainly be decorative. When displaying the shower food, add a few squares of mirrored glass on the table. Also decorate the table with candles. A great decorative piece for the food table is an original cake.

The bride cake is a wonderful addition to any shower. It is made by taking a Barbie doll, placing her in small stand in the middle of a bundt cake, and icing around her making it look like she is wearing a wedding dress. Many professional bakeries offer cakes of this design.

Using easy and creative ideas, hostesses no longer need to stress out thinking about the wedding shower decorations. Wedding showers should be fun, not stressful. Likewise, wedding shower decorations should not be stressful. These creative ideas take very little time and look wonderful.
