Gender Reveal Party Details

Next week we find out if Baby Brine is a boy or girl. Hubs and I are both thinking boy, although we're not sure why!

In true family fashion, we're going to have a reveal party the Friday after our appointment.

Here are some of the confirmed details and a few ideas that we're still deciding on!

I purchased the Gender Reveal Party Little Miss or Mister Invitation and Reveal Kit from LePartieSugar's Etsy shop!

When I purchased these items, I included all of the details and specifics for the invitation, favors and food labels, and had all of the customized pieces within a few days. It was so convenient and they look adorable! I printed the invitations at Rite Aid and used Fed Ex to print the reveal kit. It was slightly tiresome cutting out all of the details, but it'll be so worth it once all of the party details are in place!

I'm also going to use some of the ideas from her website for some finishing touches, including the tassel garland hanging above the food table.

I found this awesome tutorial on how to make your own tassel garland. I thought about purchasing one on Etsy but I always like a good DIY project!

Hubs and I decided that we'd find out the gender at our appointment, and then surprise our family at the reveal party. I think we'll both enjoy having some time to let it sink in before we share the news. The other bonus to it is that I'll be able to make the cupcakes with the blue or pink filling!

I may have been inspired to go this route so that I could purchase these and these to decorate them with :)

I also bought some other items from CupcakeSocial's shop to use, including these striped straws. I found the same straws at Target for $4, which are in red, so they also go with the theme!

Last but not least, the favors.

My Grandma, Aunts, cousin and sister make dozens of different types of cookies every Christmas. We make trays of cookies to take to everyone and their mother for the holidays. I thought cookie favors would be overkill for our family, so I found this cute idea on Pinterest that I think will be fun and easy. I'm going to use the ginormous campfire marshmallows, so that they're worth being considered a favor :). I'm thinking white chocolate with oreo, and milk chocolate with crushed graham crackers!
