Tips and Tricks to Make Your Shower a Success — Baby or Bridal, We Do It All!

At Critic’s Choice Catering & Event Production, we believe every celebration should feel as special and unique as the guest of honor. Whether you're planning a whimsical baby shower, a chic bridal shower, or something entirely your own, we’re here to turn your vision into a seamless, stylish event filled with memorable moments.

Design with Impact

We love helping you create a space that’s as stunning as it is unforgettable. For a recent bold-colored, vintage-inspired bridal shower, we designed a playful and luxurious statement piece: a vintage clawfoot bathtub filled with chilled Veuve Clicquot. The vibrant energy of the event was elevated with bold-colored florals and balloon installations that brought the venue to life, creating a joyful, eye-catching atmosphere at every turn.

Set the Scene with Stylish Rentals

The right rentals have the power to completely transform a space. For this shower, we hand-selected vintage pieces that added charm, character, and a truly one-of-a-kind feel. From unique lounge furniture to elegant glassware and accent pieces, every element was thoughtfully chosen to tie the entire design together and enhance the guest experience.

Interactive Elements that Wow

Showers should be more than just beautiful — they should be fun and engaging. We incorporated interactive elements that encouraged guests to mix, mingle, and make lasting memories. A mimosa bar featuring edible flowers let guests create their own picture-perfect drinks, while a flower crown bar invited them to craft custom floral accessories. Guests also enjoyed interactive brunch stations, including a flavorful shrimp and grits station, a hearty carving station, and so much more to keep everyone delighted.

Personal Touches That Make It Yours

It’s the little details that leave the biggest impressions. Throughout the event, we incorporated personalized signage and custom menus designed to reflect the theme, along with thoughtful favor stations offering mini champagne bottles, candles, and locally sourced treats. Handwritten name cards and sweet notes at each place setting added a heartfelt touch that guests truly appreciated.

Delicious Menus to Match Your Vibe

A celebration is only as good as its food, and we made sure every bite matched the event’s style. Seasonal salads bursting with fresh, local ingredients kept the menu light and vibrant. Our pastry and dessert displays offered a mix of sweet and savory treats, while standout desserts like our lemon olive oil cake and mini tarts provided the perfect finish to a wonderful meal.

A Show stopping Cake

Every great shower deserves a cake that’s as fabulous as the event itself. For this bridal shower, we featured a stunning lemon olive oil cake that was as beautiful as it was delicious. The cake became a centerpiece of the celebration — elegantly decorated to match the bold floral design, and offering a bright, citrusy flavor that perfectly complemented the summery menu.
