Winter-Themed Baby Shower Inspiration

If someone you know is expecting a little one, and you're the lucky person hosting the baby shower, below you'll find several ideas to get you inspired!

As winter rolls in, we all start changing up our home décor and some of us even dive into holiday prep as soon as that first cold breeze hits. Let your winter and holiday decorations get you into the perfect creative mode for party planning!

Baby showers are always adorable, no matter the theme. But having one with a winter theme is a fantastic way to use the décor and food that’s all around you this season. Turn your home into a Winter Wonderland or create the perfect celebration for the Little Snowflake on the way.

No matter what you choose, it's going to be a beautiful event for the mommy-to-be and all the guests!



 Invitations and venue

If you are planning a Winter Wonderland baby shower, a couple of clever invitation wording ideas are: "Waiting On A Little Snowflake’s Arrival" or "Baby, it’s cold outside."

The possibilities of a theme based on winter are endless! You can keep it simple with homemade props and snacks, or get extravagant décor and delicious platters of food to wow your guests. 

Once you have decided your colors, you can start looking at what kind of decorations you want to use. Your colors can be based on the gender, white, silver and pink for a girl for example, blue and white for a baby boy or just keep it neutral with gold, silver and white! 

No matter what winter decor you pick for the event, snowflake shaped fairy lights and confetti can be used throughout! They create the perfect winter ambiance and add that cheerful and cozy feeling to your winter themed baby shower.

Along with hanging snowflakes, you can also use white net and silver tinsel to create a backdrop and use frosted glittery balloons in silver and an added color of your choice to bring a pop of color to your party.

Use a banner of your choice to hang against your tinsel or net background and let it double as the photo backdrop for your party as well!

Another great idea is using pine tree branches and pinecones to bring in a little nature to your winter themed baby shower.

You can also add some fresh flower arrangements in clear vases to make it look more elegant. Make use of scented candles to create a warm glow and give off a fragrance that makes you think of winter! 

Moving on to your table setting, decorate your table with delicate white doilies that’ll look elegant and also compliment the snowflake confetti you can sprinkle around.

Create a Snowman Cheese Ball with crackers and accompany it with easy-to-eat food such as deviled eggs, pita chips and hummus, mini quiches, and veggie cups. 

You can’t go wrong with serving mini sliders, pastas and casseroles for your main dishes and use cutlery that matches your theme.

Frosty, glittery silver disposable plastic silverware is a great option as it is neutral and can fit into your winter baby shower perfectly without clashing with any of the other colors you have chosen for your décor.

A hot drinks station would be a favorite amongst your guests and they will definitely enjoy sipping on some hot chocolate or flavored teas to warm up. 

Serve treats using marshmallows, white chocolate, and coconut cream. White frosted cupcakes and glass bowls full of little chocolate coated almonds in silver or any color of your choice would add to your dessert table along with the main dessert – the cake!

Make sure to have a cute cake topper to fit your theme! 


games and favors

No party is complete without games! Prepare some fun games like Complete the Baby Rhymes and Baby Bingo on cute little printouts to fit the theme! Guests would love to share some laughs together with the mama-to-be over some friendly competition. 

And when it’s time to say goodbye, make sure to have little favor gifts ready for your guests to show how much you appreciated their love and support at your party.

Chocolates with customized stickers, snowflake shaped sugar cookies and snowman shaped candles are all great options that would fit your winter baby shower theme and also be memorable among your guests.
