Theme Tips That Make Any Shower Look Professional
Pick one palette.
Three colors max.
Let the venue shine.
Do not cover beautiful wood tables with plastic.
Choose one statement moment.
Either a dessert table or backdrop—not both.
Keep décor low and minimal.
Clutter reads cheap. Space reads expensive.
Add emotional details.
Guests remember meaning, not motifs.
