Start With a Fresh and Full Floral Centerpieces
For a spring bridal shower with a Something Blue theme, there's nothing quite like a robust floral centerpiece bursting with fresh white flowers and lovely greenery. We've arranged these fragrant mums in a Diamond Cut Pedestal Vase, and allowed them to overflow on all sides for a lush, full look that is remarkably inexpensive to create. We love how the vase looks just like real crystal and catches glints of sunlight in such an appealing way, making the table look well styled and expensive.
Crisp Table Settings in Blue and White
Working with these deeply hued cobalt blue colored plates is a dream, and they explode with color when placed in contrast atop classic White Scalloped Chargers. A crisp White Linen Napkin is tied with a sumptuous Blue Satin Ribbon and laid across the top of the plate. Premium Metallic Silver Cutlery is the obvious choice with these cool tones, and of course a crystal wine glass for toasting your excellent style! Delectable bridal gown designer iced cookies with sparkling silver glitter and silver dragees from Couture Cookie Company are stunning; their soft white icing color pops against the blue plate.

Fun favors and sweet treats are a much appreciated way to treat your guests. Craft up some Painted Love Letters; they're made of concrete so they won't tip over in the event of a breezy day!

They're so much fun to share and enhance the Something Blue bridal shower theme perfectly. Candy Favor Jars offer sweet white jelly beans as a tasty take home treat, and can be filled with a variety of other favorite candies, confetti, or even bridal party jewelry!

These concrete letters spell out L-O-V-E and can be painted in limitless ways! Here, we created the letters in multiple shades of blue, then taped off a section diagonally, sprayed white, and added lots of fun silver glitter spray.
