Bringing Beach Vibes to Your Baby Shower
Invitations
Shower invitations are the first thing your guests will see, so make sure to set the tone with a beach themed invitation. You can find pre-made cards with beach scenes, seashells, and cute little beach bums. If you’re feeling creative, you can make homemade cards with seashells, sand, and even a palm tree!
Decorations
Once your guests have RSVP’d, it’s time to start decorating! You can use beach-themed decorations such as beach balls, sand pails, flip flops, and beach umbrellas. Use these items as centerpieces, wall decorations, or even as part of a game. You can also use blue or white ribbons to hang decorations from the ceiling. It will look like the beach sky!
Tablecloths and Plates
Give your tables a beach look with bright blue or white tablecloths. Use blue or white plates and cups to tie in the beach theme. You can also use sand pails as bowls for snacks, or even as an ice bucket for beverages. For a more subtle beach look, use a white tablecloth with seashells and starfish as decorations.
Games and Activities
A baby shower is not complete without games and activities! For a beach theme, you can play the classic game of beach volleyball. Or, create a scavenger hunt and have your guests search for items found on the beach. You can also have guests compete in a sandcastle building contest. For a more relaxed atmosphere, you can play a game of beach bingo or tell beach jokes.
Favors
Don’t forget to send your guests home with a special beachy gift. You can give them small items like sunglasses, flip flops, or even a beach towel. You can also make homemade favors like beach-themed cookies or cupcakes. Whatever you decide, your guests will be sure to appreciate the thought.
