Bridal Shower Basket Ideas

When you get invited to a wedding or a bridal shower, you want to make sure that you give something to the bride that will make her feel special.  One purpose of the bridal shower is to equip the new homes of the newlyweds.  At the same time, gifts are given in celebration of the bride's upcoming wedding.


One fun and creative way of gift giving is creating a gift basket.  It is a delightful way of wishing your friend or your loved one well.  Besides, who doesn't love receiving gift baskets?  They are perfect for almost every occasion.  Any bride would appreciate a gift basket especially if you put in so much thought on what to include in that package.  Here's what you can do:

     Start by picking out a theme and it can be anything.  Think of something that the bride or the couple love doing together.
     Be creative.  A gift basket doesn't necessarily mean that all the stuff needs to be inside a basket.  Try using an oversized bowl or a medium sized laundry basket or even a metal tub.
     Set your budget. These small gifts can sometimes add up too quickly so keep track of what you're spending.

To give you an idea, we listed a few themes that we hope will get your creativity started.

Color Basket  

Think about what the bride's favourite colour is.  If it's pink, then let that guide you on which item to put in the basket.  If she likes to write then throw in a couple of pink journals, a pink pen with a pink ink.  Add a MiKeRa GuavaCocktail soy candle in a pink glass jar to add to that relaxing mood when she writes.

Honeymoon Basket

After the hectic planning and preparation for the big wedding day, any couple would like to take a break from it all and spend time with each other.  It would be nice to create a honeymoon baskets with things that the bride may need.  You can throw in a sexy lingerie, massage oils, a bottle of wine or a CD of romantic music.  You can also throw in a couple of KARMA SENSES scented pillar candles that they could use to light the bedroom.  Choose scents that are considered aphrodisiacs such as vanilla, lavender, rose and ylang ylang.

Relaxation Basket 

When the honeymoon is over and its time to go back to the real world, there will be times that the bride may want to unwind after a hard day’s work.  This relaxation basket will do the trick.  You and your friends can create a spa-day basket.  Fill the basket with bubble baths, facial masks, lotions, relaxing  music,chocolates, tea, a bathrobe and some soft comfortable slippers.  Include lavender-scented KarmaSenses aroma diffusers and/or incense that can help her achieve a state of relaxation.
