Planning a Watermelon-Themed Baby Shower

Before you start planning the shower, we wanted to give you some background on this melon-inspired theme. First off, this theme could be for either gender because of the green and pink watermelon colors. That is why we think this would also make an amazing gender reveal theme.

That being said, this theme is most popular for a baby girl. Since pink is one of the main colors, it’s easy to make this a theme for a baby girl. There are so many cute names you could call this theme. Some examples are ” Sweet Little One,” or “One in a Melon.”

There is one requirement for hosting a true watermelon-themed baby shower and that is, for sure, a watermelon centerpiece of some kind.

That could be a watermelon cake or even an actual watermelon at the center. The most popular centerpiece is the watermelon carriage, but we’ll talk more about that in detail.

Invitations

We love it when the baby shower invitations correspond with the theme. So here are a few ideas for invitations you could send out by mail or digitally to your guests.

Watermelon baby shower invitations are a great way to set the stage when introducing the theme to some guests. They will love the sweet summer design. We also live how inviting and fun these are. It’s so sweet and simple and you could easily style up or style down this idea.

The invitation shown above is definitely a simple style but it still is bright and colorful and we are pretty sure people receiving an invitation will remember what the theme is.

This one is way more festive and more gender-specific. The slices of watermelon all around the invitation card are so cute and the pink is more prominent in this design because they are celebrating a baby girl.

This invitation is in between because it is not too formal and not minimal either. It is for sure a cute idea for a baby shower and gender reveal combination party because the colors green and pink are noticeable in this design.

Decorations

Here are some of the prettiest decorations for a watermelon baby shower. You’ll see some amazing ideas for a baby shower table, floral balloons, and other ideas.

A balloon garland is the best way to decorate any event because they make great backdrops and they really make a space stand out. This example of the red and green balloons will also look good for a watermelon birthday party.

This is an example of a candy buffet table, watermelon style. There are so many things we like about this look. The first thing is the pink and green pattern on the balloon garland.

Then we also like the pink candy jar and the green candy jar on opposite sides of the table. There are also cake pops that are the colors of the watermelon.

This is a perfect example of a baby shower table if you did not know the baby’s gender or if you wanted to host a gender reveal along with a baby shower.

Since it’s a summer party, you might as well have some actual watermelon for the party. They could be used as party supplies for some baby shower games. Check out this Funny Co-Ed Baby Shower Game Baby Bump Obstacle Course with Watermelons.
