Trendy Bridal Shower or Bachelorette Theme Ideas (and the Crafts That Match)

If you're planning a bridal shower or bachelorette and want a theme that feels cute, current, and a little unexpected, these ideas are for you. We've also paired each one with a craft from our lineup that fits perfectly with the vibe.

1. Garden Party: Think vintage florals, dainty sandwiches, and (spiked) tea in real teacups. The tablescape should feature lots of candles and bud vases with fresh flowers. Plan a refined evening with a private chef for dinner and cute, classy bachelorette games. The perfect craft? Our beaded flower fridge magnets. They’re whimsical, colorful, and make adorable take-home favours. Location ideas: a lush green backyard with lots of flowers, a local botanical garden, a tea shop, or a quaint rustic cottage. Outfit ideas: tea length dresses in floral print, pastel colours, or flowy whimsical styles.

   
   

   

2. Coastal Cowgirl: A little bit beach, a little bit boots. This theme is trending for a reason with laid back coastal vibes combined with trendy Western wear. This is perfect for a laidback bride having a summer bachelorette party on the coast. Pair it with charm bracelet making so guests can string together pearls, boots, and seashell charms to match the mood. Location ideas: somewhere near a beach! Outfit ideas: cute dresses with cowboy boots, big chunky belts, cowboy hats.
   

   

3. Girls Gone Mild: This anti-party party theme is for the brides who just want calm, snacks, and sunshine. This party is meant to help everyone relax, recharge, and feel good. Think activities like morning yoga, a gentle hike, and of course, a craft! Hosting a craft workshop for this theme is the perfect way to help guests reconnect with their creative side and relax. Guests can paint or decoupage terracotta flower pots, sip iced matcha, and chat with a care. Location ideas: a cottage, somewhere rural, quiet and calm with lots of nature! Outfit ideas: comfort is key - think soft linens, loose, breathable PJ sets and athleisure.
   

   

4. Camp Bride: Bring on the nostalgia with retro summer camp-inspired decor, twinkle lights, and friendship bracelets. This theme suits well for fun camp activities like kayaking, sports, and campfires. Add tote bag decorating for a DIY that’s useful, fun, and totally ‘sleepaway-chic’. Location ideas: a backyard in the city or a cottage Outfit ideas: matching Camp tshirts decorated in fabric markers.
