2. Food shower
This is an ideal shower idea for a bride who is fond of fiddling around in the kitchen. Pick out the favorite cuisine of the bride-to-be and make it the bridal shower theme. You could decorate the shower venue with little props and items of the culture. You could also ask a chef cook up the meal right in front of you. At the end of the shower, each guest can get a kitchen gadget for the bride-to-be.
3. Library shower
If the bride is fond of reading, this can be the perfect bridal shower for her. Every guest can bring books, leather bound diaries, book plates and even gift vouchers for bookstores. For invitations, you can use pretty bookmarks. Also, you can give away bookplates as bridal shower favors.
4. Lingerie shower
A perfect shower for the bride and the bridesmaids is the lingerie shower. The girl friends of the bride can bring along an item of lingerie. This will let the bride-to-be acquire a nice collection of dainty lingerie to start her married life.

Match the bride’s answers with them and find out, if she knows her better-half well.
8. Yoga shower

This can be followed by a healthy cuisine for snacks.
