These bars and signature drink stations will help you and your ladies celebrate in style.
The best bridal showers offer something to drink, whether it's celebratory Champagne or a thematic signature cocktail. Whatever you're offering, serve beverages in a way that ties into the rest of your event's design. Get inspired by these bridal shower bar and station ideas, which can seriously elevate any party.
You've got options when it comes to serving sips at your bridal shower. Maybe you're throwing a brunch celebration. In that case, try a mimosa bar. This one featured a fun Kismet Detailing & Design sign, which read, "welcome my boozy babes." Other popular drinks include wine, like rosé, or delicious margaritas—the more flavor options, the better. Really, though, offer whatever the bride loves, whether that's sparkling punch or fruity sangria. We've spotlighted serving methods for all of the above.
Once you decide on drinks, it's time to get creative with how you display them. You might make them in advance for a grab-and-go station or provide an array of ingredients and let guests make their own. Put everything on or in a classic bar, a bar cart, or another piece of furniture. One idea ahead incorporates a bathtub, and yes, it actually looks totally classy! Spruce things up even more with flowers, pretty glassware, or cute signage like the example shown here. We highly recommend coordinating the décor with your event's overall theme.
The lady of honor is getting married which is definitely reason to celebrate. So, help everyone toast to the occasion with an amazing bridal shower bar or drink station like these.
Fruity Bar
No bar staff, no problem. Guests can make their own mixed drinks if you supply the ingredients. At this Rockstar Catering + Event Co. station, attendees chose from a number of juices (placed in bottles calligraphed by Papel & Co.) plus fresh fruit to garnish their concoctions with.
Margarita Station
This Beijos Events bridal shower featured a bar cart full of margarita fixings, including Ritual Wellness mixers. We love the station's décor, from the MV Florals blooms in Pigment planters to the Borrowed Blu glassware.
Rosé Bar
Prompt your guests to say "yes way, rosé" by offering a custom rosé bar. Lush Sea Lily Malibu flowers amplified the pink theme on this one.
Unique Setup
Gilded Lily Events designed this surprisingly stylish bathtub setup. Menu items were scribbled onto the glass door behind it.
Stylish Props
The stylish glass decanters holding this bar's beverages really set the whole thing apart.
Multitasking Station
Consider combining your booze and dessert stations, as Hera Mariages did for this bridal shower.
Thematic Bar
Details, Darling planned this entire event—including the bar cart—around one theme: pineapples and Prosecco.
Punch Station
Creativity is key in terms of both how you serve and what you serve. We like the idea of an elevated punch, like this one styled by Julia Lake Parties.
Elegant Bar
Lily & Oak planned this chic bar, which was setup on vintage-inspired furniture alongside Bowerbird Flowers & Apothecary arrangements. We're obsessed with the styling idea, as well as the chalkboard sign.
Sangria Bar
Let guests fill their cups with sangria and garnish with whatever mix-ins they like, similar to this setup featuring Graceline paper signs.
Chic Display
Decorate your bar in a way that suits your celebration's theme. At this dessert-themed Beijos Events party, for example, drink options were listed on a sign placed beside MV Florals potted plants.
Bar Cart
You can't go wrong with a stocked bar cart. This one—planned by the Fashionable Hostess—was decorated with greenery, books, and more.
Simple Station
This Details, Darling display kept things simple with just cans of Bev rosé plus glassware to pour them into.
Tropical Setup
Put everyone's eyes on a prize like Black Sweet Raspberry did here. The tropical display (featuring Bramble Floral Design foliage) brought attention to the bar cart.
Cool Theme
The themed drinks at this bridal shower were literally cool. Guests concocted their own boozy floats using Jo Snow syrups, soda water, bourbon, and ice cream.
