It&#8217;s also very easy to put together a more casual event with a touch of whimsy, where less is \u201cmore\u201d or there are lots of Pinterest-worthy intricate decorations and mouth-watering morsels almost too beautiful to eat.<\/p>\n<p>The ultimate decision-making factors are considering what the bride prefers, the size of the space where the shower will be hosted, and how many guests are attending.<\/p>\n<h3>Here are some tips for throwing a\u00a0beach themed bridal shower\u00a0that will wow your guests:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Place small beach themed decorations on tables.<\/strong><br \/>\nStarfish, ships in a bottle, little plastic lobsters, and polished pebbles are an inexpensive way to transform a simple buffet table into a beach party.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>If you&#8217;re going for a purely nautical look, use sisal and fisherman&#8217;s net on the chairs.<br \/>\n<\/strong>Why have boring place cards when you can use sisal to hang little life preservers with everyone&#8217;s names on the backs of the chairs? Net just adds to that beachy feel! It also makes a great overlay for the tablecloth so everyone can feel like they&#8217;re on a boat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Photo props are fun!<br \/>\n<\/strong>Snorkels, pool noodles, novelty oversize sunglasses: you&#8217;re only limited by your imagination! Put some fun beachy props out that guests can pose with in the photo booth or some fun selfies. Strike that Instagram-worthy pose showing off your beach style with Dune\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/gifts\/gifts-for-wedding\/inlet-cuff-gold\">Gold Inlet Cuff<\/a>\u00a0(also available in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/gifts\/gifts-for-wedding\/inlet-cuff-silver\">silver<\/a>.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The menu can have seafood if you\u2019re shooting for a traditional vibe.<\/strong><br \/>\nShrimp cocktail and other seafood is popular for beach themed bridal showers, but don\u2019t let tradition limit your creativity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Nautical-themed bento makes for fun and memorable appetizers. A star-shaped cookie cutter can turn virtually any food into edible starfish. And of course, who doesn&#8217;t want beachy tropical drinks like mai tais and pina coladas?<\/p>\n<h3><strong>You can never go wrong with blue and white stripes.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Even the most upscale\u00a0beach themed bridal shower\u00a0needs some nautical stripes to be complete, and it&#8217;s perfect as a precursor for the &#8220;something blue&#8221; bridal tradition. If you\u2019re doing a play on the something blue \/ something new tradition, consider getting the bride the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/gifts\/gifts-for-wedding\/gold-sand-jewel-long-earrings-round\">Gold Sand Jewel Long Earrings<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/gifts\/gifts-for-wedding\/sand-jewel-necklace-heart\">Heart Sand Jewel Necklace\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; it can be the perfect meaningful gift from the bridal party.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Fun stuff for your guests.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Why have the traditional bridal shower rituals like the toilet paper wedding dress or the purse game? Go for a treasure hunt, beach blanket bingo, and other fun things that the bridal party and guests will remember.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-199-L.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2791 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-199-L.jpg\" alt=\"beach themed bridal shower inlet cuffs\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-199-L.jpg 800w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-199-L-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-199-L-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-199-L-530x398.jpg 530w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And if you need a simple memorable gift for the bridal party members, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/gifts\/gifts-for-wedding\/dune-drops\">Dune Drops Round Studs\u00a0<\/a>are just the thing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2789 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152.jpg\" alt=\"beach themed bridal shower\" width=\"1652\" height=\"1105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152.jpg 1652w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152-1100x736.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/dunejewelry.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Asiapimentelphotography_Janet_Joseph-196-1652x1152-530x355.jpg 530w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1652px) 100vw, 1652px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Need more options for bridal party gifts?
