Gender Reveal Party

Having a Gender Reveal Party for your friends and family is becoming increasingly popular, and for good reason! Revealing the gender of your baby is a wonderful moment in life to celebrate and remember forever! If you're unfamiliar with the concept of a Gender Reveal Party, it is simply a party where everyone finds out the sex of an unborn child at the same time.

The Balloon Reveal is one of the most popular choices for revealing the gender of your child. If you want to find out the sex of the baby at the same time as your guests ask the ultrasound technician to write down the gender of the baby and seal it in an envelope. You can then take that sealed envelope to your local balloon vendor an ask them to fill an empty box with the color of balloons that corresponds with the gender in the envelope. Have them place the balloons and envelope inside the box and seal it up tight. Then, during your party you can open the box for a wonderful surprise!

Gender reveal poppers or other confetti based reveals are also a fun surprise! Just make sure you have a broom or vacuum handy for easy clean up.

Food reveals are a fun and delicious way to announce the gender at your Gender Reveal Party. Whether it's colored centers in a cake, cookies, or candy, you're guests are sure to love the surprise and the treat!
