Purchase a variety of prizes from this list and allow guests to choose their favorite when they win, or provide the same item in duplicate so every winner will receive there same prize.
Flower Arrangement
Who doesn’t love a pop of color to their home? A flower arrangement is a great idea for a prize because they can double as decorations during the shower and not be wasted when guests leave. This double-purpose makes flower arrangements a sustainable and budget-friendly prize.
Self-Care Basket
Consider creating a self-care basket and include products like a lip mask, face mask, a stone roller/gua sha, and bath bombs, to name a few ideas. Most of these products can be bought in packs of multiples, making this a great option if creating multiple baskets.
The Bride’s Favorite Product(s)
To add a personalized touch, have the bride pick out a few of her favorite products and purchase those as prizes! These products can be a kitchen gadget, beauty product, or hair accessory. The possibilities are really endless!
Wine
Send guests home with a bottle of wine as a prize! To add a personalized touch to this gift, choose the bride’s favorite wine and add a label, like the one below. It can be purchased on Etsy.
Cheese Board
While a cheese board is probably an item many people wouldn’t purchase for themselves, it is definitely something most guests would’ve to go home with! Consider this 3 piece board option from Amazon, complete with an Arcadia wood platter, cheese knife, and cheese fork.
Locally Sourced Goods
This is a great option if your guests are traveling from out of town to attend your shower. Provide locally sourced items, like soap, snacks, and novelties. In Virginia, a great choice is Virginia Diner Peanuts.
Hair Accessories
Everyone loves hair accessories! Available at almost any store, this is a versatile option. Consider choosing accessories from Teleties, like their signature hair ties or flat hair clips.
Plant
Like a flower arrangement, a plant can be utilized as decoration and a gift. For those guests with a green thumb, they’ll love to receive another plant!
Gift Card
This is a great prize, especially for a co-ed shower. Go for a crowd pleasing option like Amazon or the Bride’s favorite store/coffee shop.
Travel Size Beauty Kit
A sample or travel size beauty set is another nice choice. These are readily available, especially around the holidays. A budget-friendly idea is to stock up on Black Friday or other holiday sales for an upcoming shower. A personal favorite is the Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Jet Set.
