Just like any other party, it takes a bit of planning, but since it’s a casual event, you don’t have to worry too much about all the details and you can keep things casual while being creative. The benefit of baby themed parties is that there are so many amazing things to try and you can do most of the decorations and food yourself. With a little imagination, you can make your shower an unforgettable event, not just a formality, and enjoy the memory of it for years to come.
cute decorations
Decorations are key to creating a theme for the shower and setting an overall warm and friendly atmosphere. You don’t necessarily have to create a theme if you don’t want to, buying decorations is a must. Until not long ago, future parents chose decorations based on the sex of the baby, but lately this trend has lost popularity. If you don’t want your baby shower to be gender specific, or if you’re tired of the classic ideas and want something new, you need to think outside the box. Choose charming decorations that can be applied to both girls and little boys and carefully place them in the house. You can get everything from toys and stickers to baby-themed plates and balloons. Pastel colors are recommended, because they inspire purity, joy and innocence.
creative desserts
Desserts are the highlight of any baby shower, but in addition to pleasing guests with a sweet tooth, desserts can be something of a decoration if done correctly. Instead of the traditional cookies and cupcakes, why not make themed sweets in the shape of cute animals? Baking them yourself can be quite difficult and the last thing you want in the last month of pregnancy is to spend hours in the kitchen, so ordering them from a bakery would be more practical. Also, don’t forget the cake. It must be the most impressive dessert yet, so find a professional bakery to bake you something custom and colorful.
baby shower favors
Although shower favors aren’t as important as wedding favors, they add a personal touch to your party and help guests remember what made the party so special. Contrary to common belief, baby shower favors are not expensive at all and you can even make them yourself. For example, you can fill a small jar with candy and then wrap it with a cute pastel-colored ribbon. Alternatively, you can also offer mini tea sets, miniature stuffed toys, or a cookie jar.
holiday themes
If you organize the shower around a major holiday, such as Christmas, Easter, Halloween, or St. Patrick’s Day, you can use that holiday as inspiration for your shower theme. You can ask your guests to wear themed costumes and choose your decorations accordingly. Regardless of the holiday, there are plenty of amazing baby shower ideas to try.
baby shower photography
People who don’t like having their picture taken may wonder what the purpose of baby shower photography is if maternity and newborn photography exists. It’s simple: showering is a completely different part of pregnancy, the final step, where parents are most excited. Maternity photography also illustrates pregnancy, but in a different way. The parents are usually alone and the photographs consist of portraits. At baby showers, you can take candid photos and capture a fun event with all your friends and family. After many years have passed, you will definitely love showing your adult child how you prepared for the event and how happy you were to welcome them into the family.
No matter how you decide to decorate your home for the shower, planning is very important. Some things should be established a month before the big day, while others can be left until the last minute. Also, when it comes to planning responsibilities, it depends on how good you feel. Women with easy pregnancies like to take charge and organize everything by themselves, while others decide to seek help from their spouse, friends and family.
