Before the “I do,” bring a little ooh la la to your wedding planning with a lingerie shower. While it may not be the first bridal shower theme you think of, a lingerie party is a fun way to shake up the traditional wedding events. 

Typically more intimate than a normal wedding shower or bachelorette party, a lingerie shower incorporates fun activities where the bride-to-be is celebrated with gifts like panties, corsets, lacy bras, and any clothing that gets her honeymoon-ready. 

Choosing your lingerie shower invitation template is the first step to creating a celebration that’s tasteful, flirty, and on-theme. The right invite does more than share RSVP details, it sets the tone for your entire event. Whether your guest list ranges from your most conservative aunt or your wildest bestie, this guide has you covered with design tips, wording ideas, and etiquette.

To figure out the perfect birthday bash for the big day, consider the teen’s personality. Are they an introvert or extrovert? Do they love being the center of attention and surrounded by lots of people, or would an intimate gathering with their closest friends be more their vibe?

Think fast: If you couldn’t use a cup, glass, bottle, or mug, what would you drink from? A boot? A blender? Maybe a trophy? That’s exactly the challenge at an “Anything But a Cup” party.

At its core, this theme party flips the idea of a BYOB, ABC party, or Borg party on its head. Guests are asked to leave their cups at home and sip from the most creative cup alternative they can find. It’s quirky, competitive, and guaranteed to be a conversation starter. The weirder your drinking vessel, the better.
