More and more men are attending wedding showers –events that used to be reserved for women only. There are many benefits to this, including more wedding “fun” time as a couple. Learn how to throw a co-ed shower that both men and women will enjoy!

Throwing a co-ed wedding shower has a number of benefits. The cost is absorbed by more people, bride and groom get to enjoy the gifting and festivities together, and anyone on the wedding list can attend, which helps everyone feel a little special. If you have recently heard about the popularity of co-ed wedding showers but aren’t sure how to pull one off, check out these tips for throwing a co-ed wedding shower.

Food for Co-ed Wedding Showers

Easier, simpler food options are an example of the many benefits of throwing a co-ed wedding shower. You don’t have to go for adorable, cutesy sandwiches and small, delicate chocolates. Instead, you can settle for party snacks like pretzels, peanuts, and chips, along with sandwiches with some real sustenance. But don’t mistake the easier food menu for picnic-style food only. You can still make the food look a little more elegant with some creativity and ingenuity.

Games for a Co-ed Wedding Shower

Consider games that are fun for both men and women at a co-ed wedding shower. A quiz on how the couple met with prizes for the best answers, Wii sports games, and games that require a little physical activity are a good start. Again, get creative and have fun!

Gifts and Themes for a Co-Ed Shower

Throwing a co-ed shower doesn’t mean that you have to give up the fun of themes. You can still use a theme for a co-ed shower, and it can still be a blast. Consider a honeymoon theme. Have guests bring gifts that the couple can use on their honeymoon. A home entertainment theme would also be enjoyable for all guests. Everything from kitchen tools to new surround sound systems can be given with a home entertainment theme. Another idea? Consider asking guests to gift the wonderful couple cash so they can spend the money on things they really need or want. Theme possibilities for throwing a co-ed wedding shower are endless!
