Gender Reveal Party

The story is not mine to tell, as it was not my party, but the party details are too cute not to share! Especially since I know so many are dreaming of their own gender reveal parties;)

I ordered a print package from Simply Captivating Events, an Etsy shop. For a mere $35 I got PDF files of more paper decorations than I could ever imagine needing for one party. Plus personalized invitations, welcome sign and favor tags and cupcake toppers. It was a grey and yellow theme and was adorable.

However...I went to Hobby Lobby for fabric to use for the table cloths and found a beautiful black and white print I HAD to have. So I googled and found a similar style paper pattern I used to add to the banners that came with my package.

I also really wanted a photo booth so we could serve 2 purposes - photographing all participants and allowing everyone to cast their "votes". Though my camera gave me a little trouble here, the extra fabric worked great as a back drop. I used clothes pins to attach it to my blinds. The bow and mustache props were ordered from Grey Skies Blue, another Etsy shop I highly recommend.

All plates and napkins are courtesy of Target a la my co-planner, Summer. She also set us up with a GREAT local baker who made the delicious and adorable cake. So, onto the pictures...






Baby girl was NOT happy about having to share her momma with a camera
And.....
It's a boy!!

Congrats, my friends! You guys make great little men and I can't WAIT to meet this one!
