Mention a co-ed wedding shower in mixed company and most men will roll their eyes. However, a shower with the theme “Stock the Bar” will have guys saying, “I’m in!” If you’re looking for a different take on a wedding shower, a stock-the-bar party theme is the perfect way to say cheers to the happy couple.

Host a Stock-the-Bar couples shower.

What’s It All About?

A stock-the-bar party asks the guests to bring one bottle for the party and one to stock the bar of the bride and groom OR bring a gift of cool barware from the couple’s wedding registry. The host supplies glassware, food, and bar accessories to serve drinks. Since these gifts are for a shower, I suggest guests bring full bottles of top shelf liquor or wine for the couple to keep.

Stock-the Bar Party Ideas!

Chalkboard Signature Drink Sign

If the bride or groom have signature drinks, create a chalkboard sign with the drink names along with a list of ingredients. Place in a prominent place like the drink station.

Make custom wedding liquor labels

Bring in a mixologist

Hire a mixologist to share the secrets of mixing the latest popular drinks. Have the engaged couple try their hand at mixing a drink for each other.

Order Party Themed Custom Drink Coasters

When it comes to making a party stand out, small things like these custom disposable drink coasters make all the difference. You’ll want to match the theme of the party on all of your printables.

Stock the Bar Party Decorations

You’ll have fun decorating for this shower. A cheers banner and party accessories fit the theme perfectly. Hang the banner over the drink station and provide custom stock-the-bar cocktail napkins with the couple’s names and wedding date. Add “cheers” swizzle sticks to top off the drinks you’re serving.

It’s all about the party details! Playful colorful shot glasses, paper drink umbrellas, and cheers stir sticks create a festive atmosphere.

Feed Your Guests

Make sure to include plenty of appetizers so the guests have something to eat in between sampling the mixology-of-goodness that’s sure to be part of the evening. Easy appetizers from All Recipes like Spinach Brownies or Bacon Wrapped Dates include protein to feed famished guests.

Send Home Unique Favors

No party is complete without favors, even when you’re an oversized kid! Mini bottles with custom labels are a simple way to say ‘thanks’ to guests plus give them something to remember the evening by. Have an assortment of mini liquor bottles and mini wine bottles on hand for the guests to choose from. Make your own mini liquor bottle labels to add to 50ML bottles. Check out these mini bottles alongside shot glasses found at a local party store.
