Spa and Beauty Shower
Wedding planning is believed to be one of the world’s most stressful activities. It is not only difficult for the bride, it is also demanding on the entourage. Everyone goes an extra mile to make a wedding happen. Holding a shower at a spa can reduce some of the tension and make the exhausted wedding party feel normal again. If you are on a tight budget, you can hire a manicurist or masseuse to work on the guests at the hostess’ home.
Gourmet-Themed Tasting Shower
A gourmet-themed tasting shower can be for wine, seafood, cheese, chocolate, and much more. You can even hire microbrew professionals who cater to private events. You can pick a theme for the presents such as bakeware or glassware or ask people to bring gourmet nibbles as presents. The bride-to-be will enjoy sampling complex and rich foods like acorn-fed Serrano ham and Criollo chocolate truffles.

Arts and Crafts Shower
People have bonded over arts and crafts since time immemorial. These days, you no longer have to squint at needlepoint by candlelight or boil lye for soap. There’s a lot of cool stuff to do. You can visit a pottery studio, go for a lesson at the local knitting shop, or take a jewelry-making class. If you know how to knit, paint pottery, or arrange flowers, you can teach the guests during the shower.
