A Little Inspiration For Throwing The Best Baby Shower

Hooray there’s a baby on the way! And that definitely calls for a celebration – but before you panic, the days of cringey games and twee décor are long gone and baby showers can be so much cooler these days. Need some inspo? We’re here to help! From cute accessories to themes and even some of our fave Dubai venues (if you don’t want to host at home), here are a few ideas for your baby-themed event that are guaranteed to be fun and stylish.

The Theme: Boho

Guess what, baby showers don’t need to be blue or pink! Go for a trending theme and it’ll be so much cooler (and worthy of a square on the ‘gram!). Go boho with Macrame Chandeliers and Table Runners, Bleached Pampas Grass Decorations and Wooden Baby Shower Confetti. Dot tables with Silver and Gold Tea Light Holders, hang a Botanical Leaf Ribbon Backdrop and complete the vibe with a Balloon Arch in mother nature’s most perfect neutral shades.

Suggested Venue: Twiggy by La Cantine
Sophisticated yet relaxed - think Mediterranean beach club chic filled with linen, rattan and bohemian interiors, delicious food and a setting on a white sand beach.

The Theme: Stars

Mama-to-be is the star of the show (soon to be eclipsed by the new arrival) so celebrate her in style with a celestial theme! From the prettiest Baby Blue or Pink Star Plates and decorative Fans that make for the dreamiest tablescape to Star Foil Balloons, a gorgeous Gold Foil Star Party Backdrop (will look great in your insta snaps) and Banners plus all you need to create a star-filled table – this theme is gorgeousness guaranteed. Let guests fill out the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Advice Cards perfect for imparting words of wisdom, encouragement and funny new baby observations too!

The Venue: Flamingo Room By Tashas
In the heart of Jumeirah Al Naseem this beautiful venue is just the place to host a baby shower (and the gold detailing will compliment all those gorgeous stars perfectly).

The Theme: Baby In Bloom

Gear up for a blooming good time with a floral theme. Whether you’re celebrating indoors or out in the garden when the weather cools, our French Toile Plates and matching accessories, In Full Bloom collection, Tissue Paper Flowers and Cherry Blossom Foil Balloons will make for the cutest backdrop. Add Flower Garden Napkins, Bouquet Flower Confetti, Artificial Cherry Blossom Garlands and Slim Brass Vases filled with the prettiest stems and you’ll be coming up roses.

The Venue: The Farm At Al Barari 
Set within the lush green oasis of Al Barari, this magical space is surrounded by flora and fauna - the perfect canvas to your baby in bloom celebration (endless photo opps guaranteed). 

The Theme: Monochrome (With A Twist)

Life may not be black and white but your baby shower can be! Opt for one of the coolest new trending themes and create a chic monochrome celebration – you could even add colour or metallic hints to jazz things up! Give mama-to-be a shout out on our White Letter Display Board, dress the table with Kaleidoscope Plates and fabulous leopard print Femme Paper Cups, hang a Silver Heart Banner and our Gold Confetti Linking Balloons et voila – a very modern celebration!

The Venue: Forever Rose Café 
An uber instagrammable space where everything is in monochrome (apart from the deliciously colourful food).  

The Theme: We Can Bearly Wait

One of the most popular baby shower themes – because nothing says childhood more than a cute little teddy bear! Use a simple neutral colour palette or go blue or pink with a  Balloon Garland, go for our Customisable Teddy Bear Baby Shower Bunting, prop up a few teddy bears on these Pop Up Baby Blocks Balloon Decorations and add Oh Baby Napkins and Cake Toppers. A beary good time guaranteed!

The Venue: Carine
A beautiful French-Mediterranean restaurant with views of Emirates Golf Club, the light minimalist setting is the perfect stage for all those bears! 

The Theme: High Tea

Ok it's an oldie but a goodie and you really can't go wrong with a quintessentially British high tea (complete with tiny treats, scones and pretty bites) - plus there are so many variations on the traditional these days if you want something a little different! And this theme really lends itself to gorgeous decor.  From our 'Lets Partea' Balloon Bunting to our Truly Alice Range of Cupcake Stands, Plates and Cocktail Napkins - simply add Wooden Flower Mix Table Confetti for extra colour, display donuts on our super cool Acrylic Donut Wall Stand and max out on treats with a Pick & Mix Sweet Table Treat Stand. Perfectly lovely. 

The Venue: Tanias Teahouse

A gorgeous pastel toned 2-storey cafe that not only serves up the most delicious speciality teas and coffees but also heavenly desserts and a high tea that's (almost) too pretty to eat.
