Paxton's Wild Sip & See

We decided to forego a baby shower and have a sip & see since we weren't finding out the sex of the baby.

We went with an animal theme for the party and did a lot of DIY projects, like the silver spray painted animals.

It turned out to be a great day!! The sun was shining, but not overly hot, and drinks were nice and cold for everyone to enjoy.

We went with a mimosa bar with two different kinds of champagne and four different flavours of drinks - along with fruit that could be added. We also had a 3 gallon mason jar filled to the brim with white wine sangria and a bucket filled with ice and nice cold beers.

We had a coffee bar set up with a keurig and all kinds of pods, from tea to coffee to lattes.

The guests had their choice to sip out of mason jars, glass champagne flutes and glass coffee cups. They ate off of clear plastic plates, with bamboo wooden utensils.

We served plenty of finger foods for the guests to enjoy, and even set up a candy bar inside for the kids that attended.

Everyone left with a cupcake boxed either filled with a homemade cupcake or gluten-free animal crackers, tied with twine and a lovely mini silver animal.

My only regret was not getting enough pictures of the party set-up, food and the awesome party favours.
