Hosting & Toasting: Emery's Pink and Grey Baby Shower

"The mother and father-to-be are eager to be three! But before the baby comes, let's celebrate and have some fun!" Thomas and I were so, so, so excited to host a baby shower for our wonderful friends, Kristin and AJ. They are expecting their little girl at the end of February - we are in the final countdown until we meet Baby Emery and we couldn't be happier for them.

When we started planning the shower, we decided to include their nursery colors into the evening {pink, white and grey} and I thought it turned out great.

I really wanted cookies instead of a cake for their shower so I decided to try Sweet Memories Bakery in Apex, NC. They created baby feet, bottles, onesies and baby carriages in pink, white and grey. I loved the way that they turned out...and they were delicious too!

Etsy has become my go-to for any party favor recently. It is easy, convenient, {typically} a good price point and {most importantly} I don't have to go looking all over town for an item that I could have easily delivered to my doorstep. This Etsy experience was no exception - I wanted a diaper wreath to put on our front door and Tower Door Decor did an amazing job!

The custom Diaper Wreath was perfect on our front door as Guests arrived.

I also wanted a variety of personalized paper products so I browsed multiple shops on Etsy and came across Two Girls Paper Design. I instantly fell in love with her work and purchased the baby banner, set of 12 food labels, set of 12 cupcake toppers and set of 3 vase decor sticks. All of the items were customized - I was able to select the colors, design and animal(s).


I loved the additional detail that these items provided to the Shower.

I adore this dear friend and soon-to-be mommy! Emery is already one lucky girl - she has the most loving, caring and selfless parents. I am thankful each and every day for their friendship.
