The girls at A Beautiful Mess know how to throw a lovely party. That’s exactly why this donut themed wedding shower is so adorable.
Though it was donut themed the girls also threw in some cake and candy for a full desert table.
The feature was on donuts though, and guests had a choice of glazed donuts, sprinkle donuts, and donut holes.
This is a great brunch shower idea. Everyone loves donuts in the morning and it’s a great way to throw an inexpensive brunch shower.
Here are a few tips for your donut themed wedding shower:
- Choose multiple donut types
- Offer desserts other than donuts
- Label everything including donut types
- Include milk and milk alternatives
Enjoy!

Fun-loving couple Jon and Carrie wed in a carnival themed wedding created by the bride, matron of honor, and Bellwether Events. The amusement park themed event was completed with the delicious, nostalgic carnival food.
The bride purchased a vintage gumball machine online and filled it with gumballs of every color for guests to enjoy.
The theme was kept consistent throughout with a wedding logo and creative stationary and branding on items. The wedding logo was used on top of the cupcakes.
The cotton candy floss, fresh pop corn, and candy treats all received labels featuring Carrie & Joe’s names for a sweet touch. The customized bags including a cartoon version of the bride and groom too.
Instead of using traditional centerpieces for the tables, Carrie use clear buckets she bought online and filled with bottles of Jones soda, for a fun and colorful look.
Altogether the food elements added to the whimsical and fun theme that ran throughout the wedding. Great job!
