For my SIL's shower, I also made a few custom banners to match the {Country Love} theme.
The first one was (obviously) the name of the bride and groom. It was made with purple lettering on white textured cardstock mounted on violet cardstock. The shape of each pennant was a theme repeated throughout the shower (on favor tags, other banner, and gifts). It fit perfectly on the hostess's beautiful fireplace and was a great photo backdrop to remember the day!
The second banner was for the food table. It also used the same pennant shape as the first banner, but used the more western-style font (same as the favor tags).
This was my favorite banner. I just love the chunkiness of the letters with the swirly shape of the pennants.
One tip for creating the banners: When putting them all together on ribbon, use a table and connect each pennant separately. This way, you can control the arc shape of the banner. If you don't connect each one separately, the ribbon may not set straight when you hang them.
