Gender reveal parties and baby showers are exciting milestones in the journey to parenthood. These celebrations offer unique opportunities to share the joy of expecting a new baby with friends and family. Gender reveal parties typically happen around the five-month mark, while baby showers follow about six to ten weeks later. Increasingly, many parents are combining these two events into one, leading to a rise in popularity for gender reveal parties. Unlike baby showers, gender reveal parties are more casual. Here’s how you can use flowers to enhance the decor and excitement of your gender reveal and baby shower.

How to Use Flowers for Your Gender Reveal Party
Our San Francisco Florists can craft amazing flowers to make your celebration unforgettable. Here are seven delightful ways to incorporate blooms into your gender reveal party:
1. Choose a Floral Theme
A floral theme can add a unique touch to your gender reveal party. Start by choosing flowers based on their colors. Classic options include pink roses and blue delphinium. Our flower shop recommends to consider carnations, tulips. orchids, or other blooms that come in pink and blue shades. Additionally, think of the symbolism of the flowers you choose. For example, peonies, which represent femininity and elegance, are perfect if you’re expecting a girl. Please pay attention that peonies as many other blooms are highly seasonal, but our flower shop will always advise you the best blooms.
2. Customize Your Centerpieces
Personalized floral centerpieces can elevate the decor of your gender reveal party. Collaborate with a professional florist to create arrangements that reflect your personal style and the theme of your event.

3. The Big Reveal!
The highlight of any gender reveal party is the moment of the big reveal. Instead of using traditional methods like party poppers or cakes, consider using flowers to make this moment extra special. One creative idea is to present the parents with a bouquet featuring flowers in pink or blue hues to signify the baby’s gender. This unique approach adds an elegant and memorable touch to the celebration.
4. Floral Invitations and Announcements
Set the tone for your gender reveal party right from the start with floral-themed invitations and announcements. Incorporating floral designs into your invites can give guests a sneak peek of the party theme and create a sense of anticipation. You can also use real pressed flowers for a unique and tactile element.
5. Floral Photo Backdrops
Create a stunning backdrop for photos by using flowers. A floral wall or arch can serve as a beautiful focal point for pictures and create a memorable setting for the big reveal. This can be achieved with fresh flowers and greenery, depending on your budget and preferences.
6. Floral Party Favors
Send your guests home with a piece of the celebration by giving them floral party favors. Small potted plants, mini bouquets, or even seed packets can be a lovely and lasting reminder of your special day. Personalize these favors with tags that match your party theme and colors.
7. Floral Table Settings
Enhance your party’s atmosphere with floral table settings. Use flower arrangements as centerpieces and scatter petals across the tables for an added touch of elegance. Consider using floral napkin rings or place cards adorned with small blooms to tie everything together.
What Flower Is Used for a Baby Shower?
Baby showers are a time to celebrate new beginnings, making spring flowers an ideal choice. These blooms symbolize birth, renewal, and prosperity. Popular flowers for baby showers include tulips, daisies and of course, peonies.
Traditionally, light pink is used if the baby is a girl, and light blue is used if the baby is a boy. However, modern baby showers often feature a broader range of colors. Light green, lemon yellow, or peach can also be beautiful choices. Pastel colors, in general, work best depending on your theme. Whether the baby is a boy or a girl, flowers are always a joyfully received gift at a baby shower. A fresh, hand-tied bouquet of cut flowers or a beautiful houseplant can be the perfect gift to welcome the new arrival.
