We had a gender reveal party to tell our families and here are a few pictures from the party.
We based our cake off of our invitation (which I ordered here).
We chose to color the frosting blue and have chocolate cake (we LOVE our local bakery's chocolate cake)
Here's the table!
The blue punch recipe I found here. I wasn't a fan, but in the recipe's defense, I grabbed white grape juice instead of white cranberry juice, so I'm sure that made a difference! It was a beautiful color though!
The Pink Punch was a HUGE hit! You can find that recipe here! I threw in some pretzels and marshmallows dipped in white chocolate and pink/blue sprinkles.
We had guests wear "It's a Boy!" or "It's a Girl!" stickers based on their prediction.
And they also voted on the bulletin board by pinning either a bow or tie with their name on it.
Here was the final tally! Looks like everyone had a feeling :)
