Sarah's Baby Shower

Good Morning Everyone ~


On this past Sunday, I decorated "A Star is Born" baby shower for Sarah and Wes! The party was thrown by Vibrations Dance Company and I had the pleasure of creating all the cute decorations!! We had the baby shower at a place that is very familiar to all of us... the dance studio!! Since we would be having the shower immediately after dance rehearsal, it only made sense to use this space! We used the "meeting room" and front waiting area for the bulk of the party! I told Sarah in the beginning that since she was having a girl... the party was going to be pink, Pink, and PINK!! And that's exactly what she received. "A Star is Born" theme was picked since the party was being thrown by her dance family and we would be inviting other friends who are part of the theatre community. It only seemed appropriate that we celebrate a STAR!!


Let me just say... that I was nervous that the games would not be "stimulating" enough! BUT to my surprise... everyone had a ton of fun playing all the games. I didn't know that grown men would take trying to guess a belly size so seriously! AND we actually had someone be SPOT ON for guessing the mommie-to-be belly size. The "big" game that was played was the funniest of all!! So everyone had to pick a partner... the object was to dress a naked baby (put on the diaper, shirt, and pants)... then put the baby in a shower go down the dance studio around a chair and back across the finish line! The catch though... one person had to be blindfolded and the other had to direct their partner on where the clothes, how to put them on, and get them down and around that chair without killing themselves. And in honor of March Madness... we had a bracket... we went through 4 rounds until we got to 1 winner. Congrats to Ashlee and Will for being the winners!! The whole thing was HILARIOUS!! I have never laughed so hard and actually was able to participate in this game. Who knew dressing a baby without your eyes closed could be so hard. We had babies that got thrown out of their stroller, diapers falling off, people almost running into the wall! There will be post on just this game with a video and photos, just so you can get the full impact of this game!! 

This area was used for the food.

This was the welcome sign. I just love this picture! The mom liked the board so much she took it home! YEA!

On the table are the shower favors.

Wider view of the main table.  Draped fabric from ceiling to soften the feel of the room. Table without flowers on table. 

A bonus to the baby shower is... Wes the daddy-to-be made a video of the day and here it is!! Click the "here" to watch the video!
