You Have To See This Kentucky Derby Wedding Shower | Hey Y'all | Southern Living

Join Ivy Odom, Southern Living test kitchen pro, as she gives us some tips and tricks for throwing a fancy Kentucky Derby-themed wedding shower on a strict budget.

It's fun to plan a wedding shower for your best friend. Start with the theme then choose a menu. Make ahead foods are the ideal choice for wedding showers. For the Kentucky Derby theme, Ivy sticks with traditional Kentucky Derby food, such as Kentucky Hot Browns. She puts a Kentucky Derby spin on tea sandwiches. She also makes some Bourbon Balls. And to top it all of, she makes a miniature Kentucky Derby hat with cream cheese. It's so cute!

The mint julep is the classic Kentucky drink, but Ivy doesn't like the taste. Instead, she mixes up a big batch of Blush Lily, which is the signature cocktail of the Kentucky Oaks horse race.

For table decoration, creativity is key. Team up with your friends to mix and match your china, or see what you might find at a thrift store. You'll be surprised what you can pull off on a budget.
