DIY Bridal Shower Game

Need ideas on how to make your bridal shower more fun and interactive? Having a variety of games planned for your guests to break the ice and bond is always a great idea! In this DIY, we explain how to create a simple “Guess the Dress” bridal shower game for your guests to play right at the table.

Things you will need:

Diamond Pens

Guess The Dress Cards (Find ours HERE)

Your choice of Ribbon, Twine, or Rope  

Putting it all together:

Print your Guess The Dress game cards on cardstock. If you want a more rustic look you can also print them on kraft paper. We recommend the cards be about 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″. Click this link to download our free printable template! To tie in the bridal details make sure you have Diamond Pens that your guests can use to play the game.

Wrap ribbon (or any thin wrapping material) around the pen and game cards. Then create a bow and place the pen through the knot of the bow. This will help it stay secured onto the card.

Once tied, the cards are ready to place at each seat for your guests to play. Players can sketch the dress directly on the card (what we did), or write out their guesses on the style, shape, length, and texture of the dress. Here are our game results:

We highly recommend doing this easy bridal shower game. It is so simple to make & will get your guests excited about the dress you wear on the big day! Put some twists on it by giving subtle hints, having them also guess the accessories with the dress, awarding the closest guesser a prize, etc. Anyone can participate, even the little ones. Plus, your party will be able to take the Diamond Pens home as a keepsake from the bridal shower.

Boho Bridal Shower Idea

We love all things boho-inspired & our bride Adriana did not disappoint with her bridal shower decor! We were so honored that she incorporated our pieces on her special day, especially since she’s been with us since her bridesmaid proposals. Now, we’re sharing a closer look of her backyard bridal shower to give you some decoration inspo!

Theme & Decor

A rustic wooden backdrop that included an “Almost Mrs.” sign, created by @_mikbydesign, was the first thing guests saw when entering. It made the perfect photo-op for guests to take pictures with the bride-to-be. In addition, the bridal shower incorporated warm neutral tones, unique textures, and mixed florals paired with cushions and balloons to tie the theme together. Throughout the event, subtle signage adorned the entrance, gift table, and mimosa bar.

Seating & Florals 

Guests were able to enjoy each other’s company while being seated around a long white table decorated with rustic decor. Starting off, the decorative plates and beautiful floral arrangements by @prettylilthingslb, made the perfect table setting for the special occasion. A mixture of fresh and dried flower arrangements, which sat along the table, further enhanced the boho decorations. Ultimately, our favorite touch was the large wicker chair at the head of the table for the bride-to-be. It was a gorgeous addition to the shower, and very on-trend for the theme. 

Drinks & Food

Bridal showers aren’t complete without the sweet treats! Adriana had such a yummy dessert table that had a little something for everyone. From donuts to mini-tiramisus, @riassweetsandcatering stole the show with their intricate desserts. They even made a personalized charcuterie board that spelled out “Future Mrs Alvarez” in cheese! All the desserts were displayed on various wooden boards surrounded by eucalyptus stems which complimented the boho theme. Together with the hors-d’oeuvres was a Bubbly Bar station where guests could create their own mimosas with a mixture of fruits & juices.

Bride-To-Be OOTD

You can’t forget about the bride! Adriana was wearing a white two-piece outfit with matching heels for a stylish bride-to-be look! She accessorized her look with our Bride Headband and Personalized Veil. In addition, she threw on our Personalized Fringe Jacket with her new last name. She slayed the look, to say the least. 😍

If you decide to incorporate our pieces in your bridal shower, make sure to tag us on Instagram! We love seeing our products in action. Again, congrats to the lovely couple Mr. & Mrs. Alvarez and thank you to Adriana & her photographer @lizztinphoto for letting us feature her bridal shower.
