The warm weather is here to stay, and what better way to celebrate your upcoming nuptials that with a tropical inspired Botanical Bridal Shower! We just love how this warm weather inspired celebration has a pop of tropical details, chic magenta and gold elements and hints of metallic pineapples throughout! If you are planning a summer bridal shower, you can easily get this chic look by recreating it at home with our styling ideas, DIY tips and a delicious recipe!
The Table: Nothing says warm summer weather like bright magenta and tropical leaves! We layered these elements together to create a chic and simple table idea. 
Start by layering a Hot Pink Plastic Tablecloth with a variety of Tropical Leaves and a strip of Black & White Striped Gossamer, which will serve as a runner down the center of the table. We love pairing pink and green together for a luxe, elegant look and the added black and white stripe adds a modern touch!
The Place Settings: Every guest will feel like they are sitting in their own personal tropical oasis when they sit down at their place setting! 
Get this look by layering a Gold Metallic Charger with a Tropical Leaf with a Dinner Plate and a White Polyester Linen Napkin topped with a strip of Black & White Striped Satin Ribbon and Dessert Plate. 
Lastly, we added a chic pineapple detail to our setting by popping open a Pineapple Favor Container and painted it metallic gold. 
Don't forget to add elegant utensils. We paired our place settings with Premium Gold Metallic Cutlery. We love how this plastic cutlery looks so realistic without the high cost! 
If you are looking for a unique twist to a basic champagne flute, simply add a small detail to change the entire look! We added a Gold Foil Pineapple Tattoo (amazing, right!?) to our Cylinder Champagne Flutes. 
This small DIY makes a big impact and literally takes 30 seconds per glass! We absolutely love how they turned out! Add a chic cocktail and your guests will be raving!
The Centerpiece:
To add in a hint of pineapple detail without going over board, you can easily create this DIY Floral Pineapple Centerpiece! We loved how the pattern on the flower box gives just a touch of pineapple flair without being yellow and green! 
Fill your flower box with a glam mix of flowers and a few more metallic god painted Pineapple Favor Containers for a blissfully botanical look with a tropical twist! 
Don't forget up add a little color! We flanked the DIY Floral Pineapple Centerpiece with the super trendy and oh so versatile Gold Geometric Terrarium Candle Holders! 
Lastly, bring in a fun and fruity detail by painting Pineapple Cups metallic gold! We love repurposing basic items and breathing new life into them with a simple coat of paint! These pineapples looked picturesque mixed in with our DIY Flower Box and our uber chic Gold Geometric Terrarium Candle Holders! 
Everything popped against the tropical leaf table runner!
The Backdrop: Over sized backdrops are incredibly on trend right now. From dream catchers to wreaths, these over sized artful creations are popping up at weddings, parties and even as home decor! 
We wanted to create a super stylish botanically inspired backdrop for our shower and Hula Hoops were our answer!! 
We jazzed up two hula hoops with paint, Hot Pink Tulle, Silk Palm Leaves, Black & White Striped Satin Ribbon and flowers for the ultimate on trend backdrop! This inexpensive DIY was the perfect way to set the scene and guests adored our hooped decor!

Easy Decor Ideas: There is so decor element simpler than balloons. That being said, we wanted to take our basic Jumbo White Latex Balloons and make them really shine with a DIY Tropical Balloon Tail! 
These simple balloon tails really tied into our tropical theme and looked gorgeous with beautiful flowers, faux tropical leaves and hints of gold foil! 
We also added more Gold Foil Pineapple Tattoos to our plain white over sized balloons to customize them to our shower theme! 
We love how they turned out! You can create these balloons and coordinating tails at home by checking out our full tutorial here!
The Dessert:
This unique and modern bridal shower deserved a contemporary and refreshing dessert idea, and we loved combining two of our very favorite things...drinks and cupcakes! 
Our Pina Colada Cupcake Recipe has hints of tropical flavors like coconut, rum and pineapple. The best part is, guests will think you bought these chic desserts from a bakery! 
They looked incredibly delicious perched on a simple cake plate on our dessert buffet and served on our place settings!
The Small Details: Gold Foil Leaf is everywhere these days, so we wanted to incorporate this look on our dessert bar by creating some simple white DIY Large Wood Trays and adding a bit of gold foil detailing inside. 
We added some more gold Pineapple Cups to complete the look! Looking for more tropical bridal shower inspiration? Be sure to check out our DIY Floral Hoop Backdrop, our DIY Tropical Balloon Tails, our DIY Floral Pineapple Centerpieces and our Pina Colada Cupcake Recipe!
