Tips for Hosting the Sweetest Bridal Shower
with Ketel One Botanical
Jun 3, 2019
I am so excited to share this beautiful Bridal Shower Buffet I styled in collaboration with Ketel One Botanical. From floral ice cubes to a signature cocktail to the sweetest decorations, I created a celebration I knew my bride would love and cherish. Here are my tips for creating this beautiful setup…
Floral Ice Cubes
Dress up your bar with floral ice cubes! Take bright flowers (here I used ranunculus!) and freeze in ice trays the day before your event. Come event time, fill your ice bucket displaying your vodka and champagne surrounded by a beautiful display of blooms!
Advice Cards
Display “advice cards” for friends and family to write notes to the bride. If you have time, go around and read your advice out loud over lunch (extra points for funny pointers!!). There are so many amazing “Advice Card” options you can print from home on Etsy so I linked some of my favorites at the bottom of this post.
Signature Cocktail
Whip up a signature cocktail in gorgeous shade of pink!! I made the most delicious Botanical Spritz with Ketel One Botanical Grapefruit & Rose and served in elegant coupe glasses!!
Botanical Spritz:
- 3.5 ounces fresh pink grapefruit juice
- .5 ounce fresh lemon juice
- .5 ounce orange liqueur
- 1.5 ounces Ketel One Botanical
Pour grapefruit juice, lemon juice, orange liqueur, vodka and ice in cocktail shaker. Strain into coupe glass and garnish with a rose petal. Enjoy!
It’s all about the Details
Every detail counts. Spruce up a cake or cupcakes with a darling cake topper, hang a Ms. to Mrs. Sign over the buffet, and don’t forget coordinating napkins! Your bride will love all of the energy you put into making her day extra special.
