Simple and Sweet

A color scheme made up of neutral and pink hues provided a soft tone for the shower – from the invitations to the desserts. An oversized balloon wall with the phrase “we can bear-ly wait” provided a wonderful focal point and served as the perfect backdrop for photos.

Anticipating a baby is one of life’s most precious moments. For this shower, the mother-tobe loved the idea of utilizing bears for the party’s theme. With BUS as the venue, the interior served as the perfect food station, while tables and activities flowed out onto the outdoor patio.

Bear Necessities

There were plenty of opportunities to incorporate bearthemed details into the shower. Instead of the typical cup, glass bottles in the shape of a bear were used for drinks. Honey jars and dippers were curated for favors to bring the theme full circle.
