Did the new parents choose a nautical baby shower? Did you take the parents’ love of sailing to create a coastal shower? Nautical themes are gender neutral and work great to celebrate a boy or a girl. Plus, it’s trendy, especially for summer! We curated some of our favorite ideas and decor to create an amazing seafaring look!
1. Life Preserver Guestbook
Need a fun party activity? Pick up a life preserver and ask guests write messages to the baby with blue permanent marker. The parents can hang it up in the baby’s nursery, and it’ll become a treasured keepsake for years to come.
2. Whale Frames
Whales are the cutest touch to a nautical shower! Label food and desserts with sweet nautical whale frames for a chic touch. If you have a number of guests and need assigned seating, these frames make whimsical escort cards!
3. Whale Favor Boxes
Hand out thoughtful party favors in nautical favor boxes. They’re perfect for almost anything, including gummy sharks, chocolates and saltwater taffy!
4. Anchor Vases
Easily DIY jars into vases to match the theme! With a little navy and white striped ribbon, twine and anchor cut-outs, you can transform a mason jar into a cute vase to fill with fresh flowers for table centerpieces.
5. Nautical Tea Light Holders
Adorned with waves, rope and anchor charms, these nautical tea light holders are elegant maritime decor to light up tables. Guests can even take them home as a party favor!
6. Nautical Accents
There are dozens of ways to turn a drab party into an amazing nautical baby shower! Add anchors or ship wheel accents to the walls, fill small boats with party snacks and sprinkle starfish and sand dollars into the decor.
