Throw in a “heavenly” baby shower for the mother to be and the perfect theme for that would be a star is born.
Invitations
You want to send your guests “over the moon?” Sending them personalized star theme shower invitations. You can add some surprise and sparkle to the invitation card envelopes with an iridescent star confetti. You can personally make the invitation cards or buy ready made theme cards which will suit your particular theme. Designing your own cards is fun because you get to make them as you want them to exactly be in terms of graphics and the message. Do not forget to have a catchy phrase that will help bring out the theme properly like “twinkle twinkle little star…”
You can have a custom caricature of the mother drawn on top of the cards. You can not only use it for the cards but it can serve as a form of baby shower favors or seating cards.
Decorations
You can buy a sliver star curtain that you can put on the door to begin with. This would make for a wonderful entrance décor. Welcome your guests with a personalized moon and star cut out board. You can also have a place where the guests can write something down for the mom to be like some advice or good wishes.
Balloons can be a perfection idea for decorating baby shower as they are economical and are known to an impact on a party.
They also come in various sizes and designs which would sure match with whichever theme anyone sets out to use. Make several bunches and ensure you have drawn a little cute star on them. Also mix the balloons in several colors so they can appear beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
Another interesting idea would be decorating the party room in star ceiling swirl or great star lights. Since stars are our main theme, do not be afraid to go all out.
Since your tables are a major focus, ensure that they look great. You can use white linen or use white table covers with a mix of yellow and light blue paper goods. You can use a bouquet of balloons for your centerpieces.
Food
The food you prepare will have to go with the time of day that you are having the party on. You can prepare some heavy food if the shower takes place over dinner. Wine would be appropriate for a shower that takes place in the evening. Go with pastries for your dessert, cupcakes or a sheet cake. You could also stick to your theme by serving star shapes cookies with the icing having one of the colors you have used in your shower.
Games
These should focus on mother, the new baby and the theme in play. They are important because they help the guest to mingle and know each other. You can come up with some trivia whereby the guests ask each other questions about heavenly bodies or anything that is related to babies. Whoever is more knowledgeable gets to become the winner.
Favors
You can have personalized candy or pens. Another idea would be giving out a cookie shaped cutter with a tag that reads “…we appreciate your efforts of showering this family with gifts” or “a star is born”. There are plenty of favors that you can buy for this occasion.
