If she is putting the cakes on the tables for a centerpiece (and how lucky to have someone do that), you could add those little hay bales with various colored western handkerchiefs laying across the haybale and then putting the lovely cakes on that for height. You could add a few horseshoes leaning against the hay bales and some of those stars sticking into the hay (Hobby Lobby). Okay, the stars might be just a Texas deal.

You could also incorporate the handkerchiefs into some bread baskets. I think the western handkerchiefs and red and white gingham table cloths are awesome together.

Each place setting could have a handkerchief and silverware in the mason jar. When they take that out, they can use it for the tea, lemonade or water. I'd have servers going around the tables and filling the glasses.

Or you could use handkerchiefs to wrap the silverware and tie up with jute.

Boots filled with sunflowers and Gerbera daisies for centerpieces, put a few lanterns around.

My country is western to me. lol

That is all I have on the top of my head. I'll add more if I think of anything else.

Loved the idea of bandanna hankerchiefs wrapping the silverware and tied with jute! Also, the lanterns on the serving tables would be nice, IF you have a serving table, if not on each table or lanterns on some and boots on some.

Lots of great ideas PO, as usual.

Man, I want to do a western themed party now.

If she is going more country, what about terra cotta pots with sunflowers, gerbera, etc. Although, I like that better with black and white gingham tablecloths.

Sure, ignore BT & Ron! I get it, only women can have good ideas!

You want free good, Ron. It's not important to the discussion. We already know men want free food.

Yes! Do the Dirt Cake in the terra cotta pots and you have dessert and decorations at the same time. Easy to make.

Sheriff badges would be neat to have along with them horseshoes your bringing.
