Nautical Themed “Welcome Baby” Party

5 Comments

My newest niece was born on June 5th at just 31 weeks. We had planned to have a Baby Shower for my sister, but baby decided to come before the Baby Shower! She’s now 3 months old and doing well. Since she didn’t have a Baby Shower, my sister decided to host a “Welcome Baby” party to introduce her lovely little daughter to family and close friends.

A Welcome Baby Party is a great option for parents of preemies who didn’t have a chance to have a Baby Shower. Both of my girls were born early, and because of that, I missed both baby showers. At the time, I never thought of hosting a party after the baby was born.

My sister’s baby shower was to be a nautical theme. First, we made sure the baby was comfortable and well during the party so that the whole party is also fun for that little human. There were comfortable blankets, infant milk formula, baby carriers, etc. After that, we kept with the theme and changed things up a little to transition from a baby shower to a welcome baby party and prepared accordingly. We were quite excited about the whole affair.

Moreover, gifts were pouring in, there were tiny baby wear, powers, accessories, clothes, care products, and more; how thoughtful! I think we also got one or two pushchairs from someone in gifts. Anyway, it was a fun party with lots of food and cutesy items, and the baby is so adorable!! The day was made even more special as we hired a photographer from Peachtree City newborn photography to mark the occasion with memorable photos that will last a lifetime.

At the entrance table we featured three adorable Nautical Nursery Quote prints from LB Designs on etsy. One print features a sweet quote with whale graphics, the other is of an anchor on a chevron background, and finally a seahorse on a chevron background. These prints made the perfect decor for the entrance table and will now be hung in baby’s room. Party favors for the guests included an assortment of mini hand sanitizers from Bath & Bodyworks as well as super cute nautical magnets from Katie Favors on Etsy. The 1-inch magnets are so cute. Each magnet features a cute anchor design in pink and aqua. They make a really cute favor for any party.

The table centerpieces were simple and very easy to make. For the centerpieces, I used mason jars. I put one 4×6 photo in each mason jar and filled it with shells. I finished it off with a raffia bow. Very simple, yet super cute. It’s perfect for any beach or nautical theme.

As you can see, a Welcome Baby Party is pretty easy to put together. Simple decorations and some cute-themed favors can really add to the party. Choose a theme, and go from there. All that matters is you enjoy the time spent with family and friends and they get to meet the newest addition!

    Wow, what a lovely set up! Excellent party favors. We could all use sanitizers (especially handling the baby)
