Little Lamb Baby Shower

Last weekend I had the extreme honor of throwing my very best friend a baby shower! With the help of my mom and my other bestie Christina, I was able to put together a perfectly lovely little gender neutral celebration for the mama-to-be. 

I set the tone for the shower with a lovely silver foiled invitation from minted. I felt it was the perfect way to give guests a glimpse of the decor without revealing too much or being too themey. Because the invites turned out so cute I added it to a simple silver frame which added a fun little decor piece and reminded guests how it all tied together. 

When planning a party, I always like to have on focal area or as I like to call it a "party-scape" and for this one, the windows in our dining area worked perfectly. I saw the swinging lamb idea on Pinterest and just had to implement it! How cute are those little guys?! And it ended up being so easy to do! The balloons were compliments of my favorite place on earth, The Corner Balloon Shoppe, per usual.

As far as other decor goes, we used beautiful white flowers throughout my house in cute little buckets and mason jars, added some adorable little gray and white lamb jammies and onesies hanging from the window and incorporated silver, gray and white wherever we could. 

The shower was on a Sunday at 11am so we kept the food light and brunchy. Our mama-to-be has a gluten allergy so we kept everything gluten free and it all came together perfectly. For drinks we did a mini mimosa bar and an arrangement of n/a beverages. The desserts were the cutest little lamb cookies you ever did see by Sometimes I Bake and gluten free vanilla buttercream cupcakes by yours truly. 

 

We kept it real simple and did just one game. We filled gift bags with a baby item starting with the letter written on the bags spelling SHOWER {shampoo, hangers, onesies, wipes, enfamil & a rattle}. The guests tried to guess each of the items by feeling the bags and Libby got to bring everything home for baby! It's super easy and adds some fun decor!

For favors, I found these sweet little mini buckets and filled them with lifesaver breath mints. Super simple, matched the color scheme and something guests will use. 

I'm so happy with how everything came together, but the best part of the shower was definitely getting together with so many fun ladies who love Libby almost as much as I do. We got our Vegas crew back together which was so much fun!

Since our trip less than a year ago, THREE of us have had babies and now our bachelorette is preggers! How fun is that? In fact, two of those three babies were on the Vegas trip as little zygotes and got to meet at the shower!

 It was a perfect day showering my bestie and her lil bun! I cannot wait to become an auntie to this sweet peanut and see Libby become a mama!
