TROPICAL GLAM MIMOSA BAR
No matter where you are hosting your bridal shower you can feel like you're in the tropics. Decorate with gold pineapples, palm leaves and flamingos for a glamorous luxe luau look & feel.
Start with a unique pineapple themed mimosa bar menu. Get the DIY to make your own custom Glam Tropical Mimosa Bar Sign HERE.
On the top of the bar cart, use a Luau Luxe Gold Glitter Leaf Placemat to group placement of mimosa bar supplies.
I always love to include a floral arrangement when I style a bar cart. Orchids in a Wide White Ceramic Vase with Gold Trim give the perfect tropical vibe.
Next, add your juices and fruit garnishes. Include pineapple, orange juice and blood orange juice as tart, fresh, bright options on a tropical mimosa bar cart. The juice color also adds depth to the bar aesthetics. And don't be afraid to pair multiple juice options together giving your guests the chance to experiment and create a different drink with each pour!
Transform Pitcher-Shaped Sand Ceremony Jars into juice carafes with a Premium Petal Polyester Lei and Luau Luxe Gold Glitter Stickers. Remove the lids from Mini Round Favor Bowls with Lids for mimosa garnishes and add Goldtone Candy Tongs for guests to use.
Note: Pitcher-Shaped Sand Ceremony Jars are glass but not made for beverages. Ensure these are sterilized prior to use.
Add Premium Plastic Champagne Flutes next to the champagne, prosecco or sparkling wine. Then add a Clear Cylinder Jar with a Clear Candy Scoop Set for ice. Each of these items have beautiful rounded lines that pair well with the carafes and tropical theme.
Across the front of the bar cart use My Mind's Eye Gold Pineapple Banner to further emphasize the glam luau look & feel.
On the bottom of the bar cart style with real tropical fruit. This can be sliced up, if needed as the bridal shower progresses. As an alternative to champagne glasses I could not resist these Luau Luxe Gold Pineapple Mason Jars with Lids and Straws, Tropical glam perfection!
It's always nice to provide non-alcoholic options on a mimosa bar; water, sparkling water, sparkling juice or a fruit punch. The Luau Luxe Pineapple Drink Dispenser is a beautiful way to serve a non-alcoholic option. Place this on top of a Luau Luxe Gold Glitter Leaf Placemat, raise if necessary and serve with Pineapple Icon Plastic Tumblers.
FLORAL BOHO MIMOSA BAR
For the boho bride, nothing could be more romantic than styling a floral boho mimosa bar. Have the bride don a floral crown and seat her in a peacock chair before serving her a chilled mimosa.
Set the tone with a stunning and unique Boho Mimosa Bar Backdrop and Menu Sign. Get the full DIY and everything you'll need to achieve this look.
Time to add the champagne!
I prefer a vintage look and feel for a boho bar cart. Use the Clear Champagne Glasses to achieve this look. Anchoring the glasses to the bar cart by using a tray.
Edible flowers and Rose are the perfect match for this look. Serve up mimosas with an edible flower as a garnish.
Provide additional edible flowers for guests to self serve on a Clear Cupcake Stand. I love the vintage look edging on these stands.
Use a Mini Diamond Cut Plastic Pedestal Dish to serve additional fruit garnishes.
To soften the bar cart and bring the boho floral look to life, drape a Pink Peony Faux Floral Garland over the cart. Such a pretty, feminine touch. Accent the cart with another classic boho touch, a Rattan Natural Lantern with Handle.
On the bottom of the cart serve up a non-alcoholic beverage with beautiful Pink with Silver-Trim Plastic Tumblers.
Turn a Medium White Slant Bowl into a soft floral ice bucket with a Boho Floral Crown with Lavender Accents, it slips over perfectly.
Don't forget the florals! Style the bottom of the cart with a Small Blush Glass Vase and a Blush Floral Bouquet. Place a Light Pink Scallop Trim Votive Holder at a slight angle to the vase as delicate, vintage look accent.
STYLISH MODERN MIMOSA BAR CART
For the minimalist bride who loves clean, geometric lines combined with natural elements, create a stylish modern mimosa bar cart.
Get inspired by the living wall trend and create your own Modern Mimosa Bar Cart Sign, find the full DIY details HERE.
Incorporate geometric lines by using a Clear Octagon Candy Container as an ice bucket. For To incorporate natural elements into the look use fruit as a key styling element.
Add mangoes, oranges, lemons, kiwi and more to a modern Small Gold Foil Trim Treat Tray.
I love displaying juices in clear carafes for a simple, cohesive look. Use fruit to add simple and chic juice labels. Add stickers to the fruit that corresponds with the juice in the carafe and pop them on top of the carafes.
Add fruit for garnish and mixing with mimosas in Mini Square Appetizer Bowls and Mini Square Plastic Dishes depending upon the size of the fruit.
On the bottom level of the bar cart I kept the look simple and minimalist. I used simple modern green fern as my floral accent in a Geometric Glass Vase and accented the floral with a succulent in a Faux Marble Tea Light Candle Holder.
I then placed a Sip Back & Enjoy Serving Tray on the bottom level to anchor the Mini Champagne Appetizer Glasses. This tray can also be used to walk around and serve mimosas to guests.
If you love this look, add the final touch, a Cheers Pop Foil Dot Beverage Napkin and toast your guests!
