Pantry Shower Theme - Gift Ideas
The pantry shower is perfect for couples who may be having several showers and who have never had their own place before. It can also be easily combined with kitchen theme showers to help the newlyweds stock their home with supplies.
Ask guests to bring supplies to stock the bride's pantry with, in addition to the gifts they are bringing to the party. You can include a shopping list in the invitation, circling one item on each guest's list to make sure the bride doesn't get too many of one thing.
