The most important part of any baby shower is creating a warm, festive environment for the parents-to-be, and selecting the right decorations is a major part of that. Choosing a gender neutral color scheme is one way to do that, with colors like pastels (like mint green, lavender, and yellow) or earth tones (such as beige, taupe, or sage green). These appealing, versatile colors can help to create a fun yet relaxing atmosphere. Another decor idea we love is a “clouds and raindrops” theme, hanging paper clouds and raindrops from the ceiling to create a whimsical vibe. You can also create a stunning balloon installation that matches your overall color scheme, arranging them into an arch as a focal point or creating a full balloon wall to serve as a backdrop for photos. Another theme idea to keep in mind is an animal theme, such as safari animals or woodland creatures, using animal-shaped balloons, wall decals, and table centerpieces.

We’ve got a few sources you might want to explore when looking for gender neutral baby shower theme ideas. For starters, one of the most important elements of planning a baby shower is picking the right location – luckily, it’s easy to find venue options in your area through a platform like Peerspace, which is the largest online marketplace for hourly space rentals. There are also lots of blogs and other websites that specialize in baby shower planning, which may even feature a section dedicated to gender neutral themes. You can also look to social media sites like Pinterest, Instagram, and TikTok for examples and high quality inspo. If you’re someone who likes to search for inspiration in person rather than online, you can visit your local party supply store’s baby shower section, where you’ll likely find some gender neutral theme options to choose from.

When it comes to venturing beyond the gendered pink and blue color schemes and choosing gender neutral colors for a baby shower, there are quite a few options that can work well. We’ll suggest some of the most popular gender neutral color schemes to help you get started. For one, shades of green like mint, sage, and lime are widely considered to be gender neutral and can help create a fresh, relaxing ambiance. Similarly, a soft pastel yellow is a cheerful color without any specific gender associations, and it’s one of the best colors for evoking feelings of happiness. A more modern color choice could be gray, which goes well with other hues and contributes to a sophisticated vibe. We also like the idea of using light shades of purple, such as lavender and lilac, which create a soft and calming atmosphere. Whichever color or colors you choose, you can incorporate them into the decorations, table settings, and invitations for a truly cohesive shower theme.

Try the following methods to find gender neutral baby shower invitation ideas that appeal to your tastes.

This will provide you with a wide range of options from various websites, blogs, and online marketplaces. The image search results can also be an especially great starting point for brainstorming, scrolling past relevant images to see what appeals to you initially. In terms of specific websites, we strongly recommend Pinterest, which is a visual discovery platform and a great resource for finding baby shower invitation ideas. On Pinterest, you’ll find numerous pins and boards that are likely to inspire you. Another great place to look for specific pre-made invitations is on Etsy, where searching for “gender neutral baby shower invitations” returns literally tens of thousands of results.

A gender neutral baby shower is an inclusive celebration that focuses on the imminent arrival of a precious little one without emphasizing their assigned gender. These kinds of showers typically feature gender neutral themes and color schemes (rather than pink for girls or blue for boys!) and create a welcoming environment where everyone can come together to support and celebrate a growing family.
