Baby Shower Blooms & Decor Ideas

Roses-Themed Baby Shower

Roses are the most popular flower in the world, and they are rich in symbolism based on their colors, such as love, beauty, joy, friendship, innocence, grace, femininity, and new beginnings. A bouquet of roses is perfect for a baby shower, especially in light pastels of peach, white, and green or in boy and girl colors like pale pinks and blues. Display them on the tables as lovely centerpieces, or place a few stems in small bud vases for the guests to take with them. Roses are a lovely accent and elevate any gathering into something truly special.

Sunflower-Themed Baby Shower

Symbolizing optimism, joy, love, growth, happiness, and strength, sunflowers are another fantastic bloom perfect for baby showers. Plus, there are so many fun ways to decorate around this theme. Starting with big, bright, fresh sunflowers placed on tables, incorporate other decor accents such as baby bumble bees, sunflower cake decorations, yellow and white balloons, sunflower seeds for snacking, napkins, and banners with sunflowers on them.

Wildflower-Themed Baby Shower

Wildflowers come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and each one is uniquely beautiful – just like babies. Create a dazzling baby shower with wildflowers in vases or sprinkled about the venue on tables, tied to gifts, or small bundles on place settings. Matching the colors of wildflowers is easy – choose one or a variety of colors for miscellaneous decor items such as tablecloths, plates, cups, banners, or balloons. Use (edible) wildflowers to decorate the cake or cupcakes or have soap bars with wildflowers in them as a party favor. A wildflower baby shower is a unique and striking theme that is sure to impress.

Greenery-Themed Baby Shower

A nature-loving mom-to-be will love a greenery-themed baby shower. Incorporate big, leafy plants into the venue, have large green leaves on the table as a runner, or have flower arrangements with big blooms in bright colors surrounded by lush greenery. Just as plants and flowers bloom from nature and are one of Mother Nature’s most beautiful gifts, so too are babies. The theme of fertility, growth, and prosperity are rich in a green-filled baby shower.

“April Showers Bring May Flowers” Baby Shower

If the baby shower you are planning is taking place in April or  May, use “April Showers Bring May Flowers” as a seasonally appropriate and charming baby shower theme. Filling the venue with fresh, spring flowers is a great way to welcome the impending addition of a new bundle of joy. Not to mention, spring blooms resonate with rich symbolism of birth, renewal, and new beginnings. Any color you choose for decor will match any variety of spring blooms your choose. Popular spring flowers include peonies, tulips, daisies, daffodils, and hyacinth.
