A baby or bridal shower isn’t just an event; it’s a heartfelt celebration of love, new chapters, and the shared moments that mark life’s special transitions. Each season offers its own mood — the fresh blooms of spring, the warmth of summer, the crisp elegance of autumn, or the cozy glow of winter — and flowers are the perfect way to reflect your theme and set the tone. At WKF Weddings in St. Louis, Missouri, we’re excited to share ideas for stunning florals, delightful menu options, and unique themes to help you plan a shower that’s as beautiful in person as it will be in photos!
Give Roses the Spotlight for Baby in Bloom/Love in Bloom
Baby in Bloom is all about creating a soft, whimsical atmosphere. Picture pastel roses in shades of butter yellow, blush, and cream tucked into vases, accented with lush greenery for a sweet touch on the dessert table. This delicate aesthetic mirrors the tender excitement of a new baby. For a Love in Bloom theme, romance and elegance set the mood. Vibrant hues of white, peach, orange, and pink should be showcased in a lavish rose centerpiece and a floral photo backdrop. The unifying element for both themes? A lovely display of blooming flowers to set the perfect tone.
Bring the English Garden Inside for Tea Party/High Tea
Create a baby or bridal shower that feels like a stroll through an English garden in the countryside. The beauty of this theme comes from its mix of vintage elegance and natural florals. Picture tables set with dainty tea sets and arrangements of garden roses, hydrangea blossoms, and flowing blooms dressed in delicate pastel tones or crisp whites. Elevate the experience by offering a traditional high tea spread, complete with finger sandwiches, scones, and petite confections like macarons and fruit tarts served on tiered trays. Be sure to include a selection of fine teas to complete this magical celebration!
Usher in Whimsy with Petals and Pacifiers/Petals and Prosecco
Celebrate in style with a Petals and Pacifiers shower for babies or a Petals and Prosecco shower for brides, both brimming with floral elegance. Start the festivities by gifting guests, including men (yes, they’re invited) fresh corsages or boutonnieres adorned with delicate spray roses and greenery, replete with satin ribbons. For Petals and Prosecco, set up a bubbly bar with a range of sparkling adult beverages and pair it with creative floral activities. For Petals and Pacifiers, opt for mocktails and cute floral-inspired sweets. A floral design station packed with vibrant flowers is the ultimate activity for fun and creativity at either event!
Rustic Blooms Shine with Boho Baby/Boho Bride
Infuse your shower with a carefree, nature-inspired spirit by choosing a Boho Baby or Boho Bride theme. Centerpieces look amazing with dreamy combinations of anthurium, dahlias, and roses blended with feathery greenery, eucalyptus, and pampas. Arrange these florals in unique, boho-style vases and surround them with glowing candles for a cozy yet chic vibe. Set the table with layered details like burlap runners, wooden chargers, and macramé placemats for texture. Serve up delicious rustic fare, from elegant charcuterie boards and savory mini quiches to naked cakes accented with delicate flowers.
Celebrate Nature with Woodland Theme/Forest Soiree
Bring the essence of the forest to life with a Forest Soiree for a bridal event or a Woodland Theme for a baby shower. These nature-inspired designs combine rich greenery, natural textures, and earthy colors to create a setting that feels both serene and magical. For outdoor venues, set up tables beneath trees and adorn them with bouquets of roses and greenery. If celebrating indoors, replicate the woodland spirit with eucalyptus accents, spray roses, and wooden furniture pieces. Potted plants scattered throughout the space complete the look, giving the event an authentic, forest-like energy.
