Golden Books Gender Neutral Baby Shower

You know what is hard for a party planner? Having someone else plan a party for you! Handing over the reigns can be very challenging, but it was so rewarding. When I was pregnant with my youngest I had already thrown 2 beautiful baby showers for my best friend. I was tickled pink that she wanted to return the favor. Because the gender of the little one was a surprise a gender neutral shower was a little more challenging. I gave her a few links to ideas that I liked and then stepped back and was surprised when I walked in that afternoon.

• What People Ate

  Guests were served light refreshments of crudité, cheese, crackers and dip.

  The hostess set up a nostalgic candy buffet that was both decor and a party favor.

• Best Moment

  All guests were asked to bring a book instead of a greeting card. I loved having a stack books to take home.

• Most Touching Moment

  Another friend made the diaper cake, she printed out and made miniature golden books to decorate the diaper cake.
