Baby Perez’s Baby Shower


It’s taken me a few weeks to digest the amazing baby shower that my sister and mom hosted for me. Every little detail was pure perfection! The weather was amazing, friends and family were around me and I felt like I had time with everyone.  As much as I wanted certain things to be a surprise, my sister did ask for my input so we created a joint Pinterest board so she could see what I liked and went from there. I asked Valerie from VS Photography to capture the day & I’m so glad because not only did I get pictures with every single person there, I wasn’t worried about trying to get pictures myself and really enjoyed every single minute with family and friends.  I did sprinkle in a few photos that people sent me in at the end! 

 I ordered this printable from Etsy & then had it printed on a thicker poster board. 


 The favor tags were purchased on Etsy & then the EOS lip balms were bought in bulk from Amazon.


I didn’t really want games, but this headband making station was so fun & we all took our turns making something for baby girl. My youngest niece made close to 10 on her own!! 

 In lieu of cards, my sister asked guests to bring a book for Baby Girl’s nursery! 


This may have been the best cake I’ve ever had in my life! My sister has a baker that she has used for years & she can take any idea you have and make a cake out of it!

 Cousins

My best friend flew in for about 36 hours and it was the best thing ever!

It was an absolute dream of a day! I can’t thank my sister and mom enough for all the thought and care they put into everything! My mom made every single floral arrangement by hand – they lasted for nearly 2 weeks!! I may hire her as a florist for weddings when my parents move up here ๐Ÿ˜œAnd I know that I’m wearing the same dress that I wore in my maternity photos, but it felt like such a great dress and it would have been a waste to only wear it once – so I decided I’d wear it for both occasions…and maybe again after baby!

Happy Monday friends!

    First of all – kudos to you for getting a photographer for this. I always say that there's too much going on to capture good pics of the day & its something you dont have to worry about if you know there is a professional capturing GOOD pictures for you to have forever.
    & come on – those lip balm cards are the cutest things I've ever seen in my life as a party goodie!!!

    What an amazing shower!! You look so happy ๐Ÿ™‚ I totally agree with wearing the dress more than once. You look too gorgeous in it to not! Those favors with the lip gloss might be the cutest things I have ever seen. And I love the idea of doing books instead of cards. Let's face it. you wont read cards again…and books are about the same price!
