Celebrate in Style: Hosting a Patio Bridal Shower

IMG_8121-300x225

Wedding season is here and that means if you aren’t planning a bridal shower of your own then you’re probably attending one! When it comes to planning a bridal shower, there are a lot of options. From themes to decorations, food to refreshments, you want to ensure that you not only create a welcoming environment for guests to enjoy but it’s also something that the bride (and groom!) will enjoy.

The first thing you’ll want to do when getting ready for a bridal shower is to create an entrance that let guests know just where they are and what they can expect.

Here’s the entrance to a patio shower Agricola Redesign recently did for a client in Loveland, Ohio:

After you get the entrance to the shower all ready to go, make sure you fill both the home as well as the patio with decorations. Guests will be walking through the home to get to the patio, so you want to create a cohesive environment for them to walk through so they don’t forget why they’re there!

Don’t forget to be creative with the way you display your refreshments and food. Make sure you go out and get some risers as well as flowers to add an extra elegant touch to the look of the shower!
