Charcuterie/wine Themed Shower?

MrsD, on December 18, 2018 at 2:10 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 14

My mother asked my fiance & I if we would prefer a couples shower or bridal shower just for me, we are still deciding. She also asked me if I had any kind of theme in mind.

I recently saw a post from one of the daughter's from Duck Dynasty. She had a charcuterie-themed party, displays of meats & cheeses! It was so adorable. We would add wine obviously. But I'm wondering if that would be enough? What else could she serve? She is totally fine planning whatever, but likes our input.

Have you been to a party like that? Or a wedding with a similar theme? What other food and drinks did they serve? What kind of decor? Activities?

Thank you!

    That’s a really cool idea. I’ve never heard of a shower with that theme before. That sounds really unique.

    Yeah, it's not very common on Pinterest from what I've seen! Mostly it's just centerpieces with meats & cheese boards. But we obviously would need more food than that. So she wasn't sure if she should go more Italian with the food or go more towards tons of small plates like tapas.

    I don’t think you can go wrong either way. I personally love tapas so that’s my vote!

    I second the tapas vote to follow with it! That sounds like a super yummy shower that I would actually enjoy 😋 haha!

    I'm glad we have two votes for that! I'll let her know. It would be fun to have a ton of smaller plate options, rather than a typical lunch shower.

    That's a cool theme! Depending what time the shower takes place, you don't really have to provide a meal. A lot of apps and wine and cheese would be awesome! MAybe you could even give away bottles of wine as the gifts or winning games?

    As a wine gal, I'm obsessed with this theme!! Maybe you could do a wine tasting as an activity? Have two whites, a rose and two reds! I am in agreement with the others on tapas style, you could even have little sandwiches and quiches!!

    Yes, this was our couple's shower theme! Since we got married in Sonoma (wine country) our shower theme was Wine Country Picnic. We had lots of meats, cheeses, veggies, fruit, breads, and dips as well as wine, of course! My hostess gifts for each of the hosts was a picnic basket filled with picnic items, sparking water, wine, chocolates, imported cheeses, crackers, etc.

    Here is a link to when I posted my BAS last year:
