Bridal Shower Themes

I know this is a topic that immediately turns people off. I mean weddings in general. If I wasn't getting married and I saw the title then I'd probably either skip the post or just never go to this site again! But this is what my life has come to...
Of course for bridal showers there is the standard lingerie theme. But that doesn't work with too many moms. Or maybe it does these days, but personally I guess I'd feel uncomfortable. I've been trying to think of some themes and well I found some ideas on the web, so I wrote them down with some minor modifications:

• Recipe Theme
  Enclose a blank recipe card with every invitation and asked that each guest write down a favorite recipe on the card to bring to the shower.
  
• Advice Theme
  In the invitations each guest gets a "post-it note" in which they had to write a piece of advice. Their gift then had to correlate with the advice.
  
• Alphabet Theme
  Each guest is assigned a letter of the alphabet and gets a gift beginning with that letter.
  
• Mood Theme
  Each guest is assigned a mood of the bride. For example, the mood to cook, the mood for romance, the mood for a bath.
  
• Naughty and Nice Theme
  All guests bring a nice gift and something "naughty" for the honeymoon. For example, candles, lotions, books, handcuffs.
  

Do you have any creative ideas for bridal shower themes?
