Throwing a Valentines themed soiree is undeniably one of the most fitting types of baby showers if your babies due date is on Valentines, or even just in the month of February.
Whilst the ‘love’ colors are traditionally red and pink, you don’t have to be expecting a baby girl to enjoy this lovable theme. Take inspiration from the below 15 ideas that will help you throw the most gorgeous, and adorable shower.
15 Lovable Valentines Baby Shower Themes
1.Lovable Baby
Now, that’s what we call a photo backdrop for a baby shower!
Lean into a range of pinks and reds in different hues to create a layered, visually interesting backdrop for the day.
If you’re creating the balloon arch yourself, include a range of different colored balloons as well as adding some obligatory heart shaped balloons for a beautiful visual display.
2. Cupid Theme
Celebrate the impending arrival with the sentiment, ‘a little sweetheart is on the way’. Use Cupid, pinks, reds and silvers in your color scheme.
Add a different element to your backdrop with a faux grass wall, it contrasts beautifully with the soft and warm pinks and reds.
3. A Little Sweetheart Is On The Way
Carry that sentiment on into something a little more low key. Whilst these arch prop boards can be rented out, if you don’t mind getting crafty, you could create your own version of this with cardboard or a sheet of ply. Simply cut it out, paint it and add your text transfer to it.
Finish with a gorgeous balloon arch for the most perfect, fitting backdrop for a valentines baby.
4. Pink Themed Spread
If you’re hosting an afternoon tea or a little family style sharing spread, make it pink themed!
Engage with only pink or red based foods for the cutest color theme. You could even send invites out asking all of your guests to wear pink only.
5. The Sweetest Eats
This is the level of detail that a valentines baby shower deserves! How intricate and gorgeous do these favors look?
If you’re adding gorgeous eats into your spread like this, less really is more, and guests will appreciate the trouble you’ve gone to for the most on brand food.
6. Valentines Teddy Bear Theme
Teddy bear themed baby showers are incredibly popular, they create such a charming and adorable feel. Team it with a valentines bash for a super cute and lovable theme.
Adding a big teddy bear is an absolute must, if you know the gender, add a pink or blue ribbon around the neck.
7. Celebrating Love
Celebrate all things love at your baby shower. If you’re having a small gathering at home, string up some love garlands and add some sweet love themed elements to your food table, like the below.
8. All The Pinks
There’s no such thing as over the top when it comes to a valentines baby shower and every shade of pink or red you can get your hands on is welcomed!
We love this idea for a floor picnic, the perfect opportunity to create a gorgeous valentines inspired tablescape.
9. Boho Inspired
Those boho inspired baby shower themes are going nowhere anytime soon and they bring such a rustic, natural warmth into a red or pink themed color scheme.
Instead of creating a huge backdrop, introduce a wicker cane chair or similar for the mom-to-be to sit on and add a balloon arch for a beautiful addition to the look.
10. Baby Love Is On The Way
How beautiful? I adore the baby love sentiment so much, it has such a regal feel to it.
Instead of bright and bold pinks and reds, lean into the neutral softer shades for a really gorgeous feel. Add a red bow and plenty of florals for the prettiest feel. This is a gorgeous unisex look for a valentines shower.
11. Oh Baby
Celebrate with this twist on a valentines shower with an ‘oh baby’ theme. Say it with balloons and create a gorgeous spread for your guests.
If you’re celebrating a boy, lean into the lumberjack side of things with a wooden backdrop like the below, it grounds the scheme and makes the red pop!
12. Love Heart Backdrop
Say it with love hearts! If you’re fed up of seeing balloons when scrolling through baby shower ideas, this love heart garland backdrop is a refreshing alternative.
13. Valentines Cookies
Personalised cookies are ALWAYS a good idea! They get your guests talking, look amazing in photos and are great favors for your guests to take home.
You could even add an element of an activity to your shower, getting all your guests to ice their own biscuits, this is a great alternative if you aren’t a fan of games at a baby shower.
14. Love You To The Moon and Back
Forget the pinks, and lean into a red and black theme with a love you to the moon and back sentiment.
This fun backdrop is great for large gatherings, there’s an element of everything here from celestial mentions to valentines colors and teddy bears.
15. Say It With Neon
Saying it with light is one of our favorite elements to a photo backdrop for a baby shower as it stands out in photos beautifully, creating a backlit effect in all of your photos.
We adore this beautiful balloon arch too, add pinks, reds and even gold details to make the look pop on camera.
Whichever theme you choose, have the best time celebrating!
