Dr. Seuss Oh The Places You'll Go Baby Shower

Dr. Seuss Oh The Places You'll Go Baby Shower

There are some books and authors that immediately bring you back to your childhood, and perhaps one of the mostly widely known and beloved of these authors is of course, Dr Seuss™. Inspired by his whimsical writing and illustrations, we wanted to bring the book "Oh the Places You'll Go" to life for a gender neutral and cheerful baby shower than any mom-to-be would simply adore! With darling balloons, plenty of DIY elements, a soft pastel color palette and an abundance of Dr. Seuss details, this shower is a masterful success!

 

The Table:

We layered our table in a crisp white table linen and topped it with striped paper from our local dollar store.

To create a themed table runner, we married two Dr. Seuss banners and ran them down the center of our table.

The Place Settings:

Each place setting was comprised of a buttery yellow square dinner plate topped with a round pale blue dinner plate which was then topped with an "Oh, The Places You'll Go" dessert plate.

We opted to keep our color palette gender neutral, so blue, yellow and themed plates were the perfect combination.

Resting above the cutlery and napkin was a glass milk jar filled with lemonade.

The Backdrop:

We wanted our shower guests and mom-to-be to feel as though they stepped right into the pages of the book itself. We created a DIY Dr. Seuss Backdrop and Buffet to capture that feeling.

The walls were lined with sky paper boasting fluffy white clouds. Flanking each side of the backdrop were two themed bulletin board posters. We loved how these not only tied into the theme, but really brought in a lot of colors.
