It’s a GIRL...…
If you're looking for a baby shower theme for girls that incorporates pink, rainbow colors, and pastels, consider the "Enchanted Rainbow" theme.
Color Palette:
Use a soft and dreamy color palette that includes shades of pink, lavender, mint green, and baby blue as the base colors. Accentuate with pops of bright rainbow colors.
- Use our Balloon garlands to create a Rainbow Balloon arch that will serve as a beautiful backdrop for photos and set the tone for the theme or create DIY balloon garlands using latex balloons in your chosen color scheme.
- Pastel Table Settings: Use pastel-colored tablecloths, napkins, and plates to create an elegant and cohesive look. You can mix and match different pastel hues.
- Shimmer walls are a glamorous addition to any baby shower décor. Use them as a backdrop for the gift table or photo booth area. For an Enchanted Rainbow theme, consider a shimmer wall in dusty rose, holographic pink or holographic blue.
- Rainbow Cake: A multi-layered rainbow cake is a must-have for an Enchanted Rainbow baby shower. You can also include rainbow-themed cupcakes and cookies.
- Candy Bar: Set up a candy bar with a variety of sweets in pastel and rainbow colors. This can serve as both a treat for guests and a decorative element.
- Rainbow Onesie Decorating: Set up a craft station where guests can decorate onesies with fabric markers and iron-on patches in rainbow colors.
- Guess the Baby's Birthdate: Have guests guess the baby's birthdate and time. The closest guess wins a prize.
- Baby Name Suggestions: Invite guests to suggest baby names, and the parents-to-be can choose their favorites.
It’s a BOY....
Certainly, if you'd like to focus solely on a dinosaur-themed baby shower for a baby boy, you can go with the classic "Dino Delight" theme. Here's how to bring this theme to life:
Color Palette: Use Green (for the dinosaurs) as primary colors and Earthy tones like brown, beige, and olive green as accent colors.
Decorations:Use our Dinosaur Bloon Garland that includes dinosaur-shaped balloons and green and brown latex balloons. This will elevate your space and create a fun backdrop with a lush prehistoric jungle scene for photos. To add further detail place large dinosaur footprint cutouts leading up to the entrance and around the venue.
