Welcoming a new little life is one of the most exciting times in a parent’s life. Family and friends will be eager to celebrate the baby! A gender reveal party gives your loved ones the opportunity to be involved in an exciting and memorable event as you prepare to welcome your baby. 

The gender reveal has become a highly celebrated event that new families spend months preparing for, but regardless of how much time you have to plan, the following ideas will make your gender reveal an event to remember!

Gender Reveal Party Ideas

Coming up with gender reveal party ideas on top of budgeting for the baby, designing your nursery, and all the other baby prepping you’re doing can feel like a lot. So we came up with a list of unique and fun gender reveal ideas for you!

Movie-Theme Gender Reveal

For those die-hard Star Wars or Harry Potter fans, a movie-themed gender reveal brings your favorite films into your unforgettable day! Etsy is a great source for unique and completely customized party favors like personalized lightsabers that will reveal as pink or blue.

If you’re a movie fan in general, transform your space into a classic movie theater complete with popcorn bar. With some help from your Baby Buddee, any venue can become your movie theater for the world premiere of your baby boy or baby girl.

Gender Reveal Mystery Party

Get your guests involved by turning your gender reveal into a mystery party for everyone to solve! Provide clues in the form of old wives’ tales or even drop clues around your party venue for guests to follow as they try to solve the gender reveal mystery! Have a friend help you gather your guests and decorate your space for the ultimate Sherlock Holmes gender reveal.

Classic Gender Reveal

A gender reveal is special no matter how you deliver the news, but there are a few classic gender reveal party ideas that we love. The classic gender reveal party idea of biodegradable confetti cannons is a fun way to include your guests in the reveal and have fun photo keepsakes to look back on. 

Another classic that we’ve always loved is the pink or blue powder-filled baseball or golf ball for the sport-loving parent. Getting your spouse involved in the reveal makes it just that much more special.

Gift Ideas for A Gender Reveal Party

Attending a gender reveal and unsure of what to bring as a gift? We’ve got you! While bringing a gift to a gender reveal is not mandatory, it’s a nice gesture to the parents-to-be to attend with a small congratulations gift. 

Consider bringing a gift for mom to enjoy. A personalized bottle of champagne to celebrate after the baby comes or a Bump Box full of items specially designed for mom are thoughtful and unique options.  

A simple gift for baby is also a great way to say congratulations. Popular gifts for gender reveals are inspiring quote swaddle blankets, a diaper cake, or a diaper cradle

Any gift you bring to a gender reveal will be highly appreciated, so just like anything, don’t overthink it and get excited to celebrate this beautiful new life!
