Showering the Bride at the Winery!

Love is in the air this summer, and we have the best wedding venue at the Lake of the Ozarks. Of course, we aren't just a great wedding venue, but also a great venue for any of your events at the Lake of the Ozarks - like bridal showers! If you're planning a bridal shower for your best friends, we have a few ideas to help you plan the best wine themed bridal shower of the year.


The Invite

It all begins with inviting all of your bride's friends and family to this fun event. There are many fun styles you can use, but we think this wine bottle invitation is absolutely adorable. Don't forget to include all of the details like time, date, where the couple is registered, their wedding website (if they have one), the address & phone number of our Lake of the Ozarks winery, as well as any wardrobe requirements, if any.

Plan Your Menu

Our Lake of the Ozarks winery would love to help you plan your winery bridal shower with our delicious menu and catering options. If you have specific ideas on what you would like to serve, please check with us and see if this is something we can help with. Keep things sweet and savory. Chocolate and cheese are great pairings with wine (since now winery bridal shower is complete without wine!). Artisan cheese with fun crackers can be a fun serving for your light fare, chocolate dipped grapes are also a fun way to incorporate the warm flavors of chocolate and still bring in a wine theme. Don't forget the cake! You can serve cake parfaits in plastic wine glass serving dishes for a fun twist on an old favorite.

Start Decorating!

There are some beautiful ideas for decorating, and the ideas are endless for wine themed crafts! Even something as simple as wine bottles with flowers and corks spread around it like the image below can be a great centerpiece. With a little planning and some wino friends to help, you can collect bottles and corks with ease. Want to add to the look? Try adding clusters of grapes and candles! You can also create a more uniform look if you paint the bottles with black paint and wrap grapevines around them. Or paint them gold for a fancy sophisticated look!

Get the Fun Started with Games!

No bridal shower is complete without some really fun games to break the ice. Try a game about guessing the number of corks in the jar and you can give away a bottle of Missouri wine to the winner. Do you want to have a fun interactive game for your guests? Have them take a wine glass and decorate it! They can paint the bottom with chalk and then write their name on the bottom, or pull out the paint, glitter, and rhinestones so they can decorate the entire glass! Another fun game is that you can label a few wine bottles for each anniversary, and tell the guests to put fun advice or quotes for the couple to open on their anniversary.
