She has a Tinkerbell lampshade, a Little Mermaid t-shirt and Mickey Mouse slippers but she's not your 7-year-old niece. She's your best friend and you're throwing her a bridal shower. Not all Disney fans are children and some adult fans are the most devoted of all. Tap into that passion and give your friend a Disney bridal shower. The guests will be pleasantly surprised at not attending "just another shower" and the guest of honor will revel in the theme. - Set the party theme by sending out Disney shower invitations. Purchase a set of Disney postcards at one of the Disney resellers online or on ebay.com. Use these for personalized shower invitations.
Go to the Disney photopass site and create invitation cards. You can upload your own photos to the site, so use a picture of the bride-to-be or the happy couple and make a custom Disney card set. - Find out your guest of honor's favorite part of Disney and key the decorations to this. Perhaps she's a Mickey Mouse fan or she loves the princesses. Buy party decorations in that theme in the children's birthday department of a party supply store. Borrow coordinating stuffed animals from your friends' children to scatter around the room and add to the ambiance.
- Make a list of Disney movies and their corresponding love song themes. Mix up the lists and have guests try to match the movie with the love song. Buy mixed bags of Disney pins and play pin trading. This is a very popular pastime in Walt Disney World and it will either remind your guest of honor of her trips or get her ready for a new hobby when she goes.
Print out pictures of rides in Walt Disney World and have guests guess the movie that each one is based on. For a crowd of Disneyphiles, crop the pictures so that only a portion of the building is showing.
Hide Mickey Mouse silhouettes around the room. Play "Hidden Mickey" by having guests find and collect the Mickey shapes. Hidden Mickeys are Mickey-shaped objects all over the Disney parks. The Disney insiders can let the rookies in on the connection. - Order Disney princess wedding M&M candies from the manufacturer's site. Wrap handfuls of them in individual gift bags for each guest. Give out Disney Christmas ornaments, t-shirts or tote bags for the winners of the shower games. Hand out tiaras for a princess-themed party and give out glass-slipper themed gifts.
