Airplane Themed Baby Shower!

I'm so thrilled to share with you this airplane themed baby shower Thrive.ink worked over the weekend! I had so much fun dreaming up the details for this shindig!

The mommy-to-be told us that baby Robert's nursery is decorated in an airplane theme so we ran with that theme for the baby shower. I altered our airplane birthday party printables for a baby shower and I'm excited to announce that package is now in the shop as well! :)

We placed two welcome signs to direct guests into the right room. We put one outside and one on the door to the room we were in. :)

As guests walked in we asked them to sign the guestbook. I created the 'check-in' and 'baggage claim' signs as a cute, coordinating way to show guests where to sign the guestbook and to remind them to grab a favor on the way out!

We used the children's book The Little Airplane as the guestbook. I thought it would be a sweet touch to add to the airplane themed nursery and little Robert can enjoy the book once he learns to read. :)

The favors were handmade by the mommy-to-be! We packaged them up in white kraft paper gift bags and attached these matching favor tags.

After signing in, we directed guests to the gift table for "Luggage Dropoff." ;) For each event I do I create a custom gift list so that the guest of honor can easily see who brought what.

Also on the gift table was the diaper cake we made that I'm sure will come in handy the first few weeks baby Robert is home! :)

After all the guests arrived, they were welcomed to refreshments.

We snacked on ham and cheese croissants, veggies with ranch dip, goat cheese and crackers, spinach and artichoke dip with tortilla chips, chocolate dipped pretzels and Hershey's kisses.

Above the food table, I custom designed a banner for baby Robert. We also added coordinating patterned banners I made to all the tables.

The Hershey's Kisses were adorned with matching stickers. These stickers are part of each party package that we offer. :)

After we ate, our guest of honor cut into the cake and we got to enjoy this adorable cloud cake! The mommy-to-be, Jennifer was so excited to take home the cake topper to add to baby Robert's nursery!

We then played 2 customized shower games that are included in the party package in the shop! We played Baby Robert's The Sweet Life and The Price is Right. Winners each received a small prize. :)

It was such a fun shower and I was honored to be part of baby Robert's special day! Congratulations Jennifer!!
