Gender-Neutral Baby Shower Decorations
Elegant Table Settings
One of the key elements that can elevate the ambiance of neutral themed baby showers is the choice of elegant table settings. Creating a cohesive and sophisticated table arrangement can set the tone for the entire event. This can easily be done with the use of elegant dishes, serveware and a stunning display.
My first suggestion is to invest in some decent quality serveware that will last. Because I absolutely love to throw parties, I have a good selection of cake trays, display stands, trays and apothecary style jars. These are good options for a sophisicated look. Always choose serveware that is neutral, like white, silver or wood to fit in well with a neutral color scheme.

Don't forget that you should also set up table decorations with your dishes at different heights to create dimension and visual appeal. You can also have your table match with gorgeous place settings and a fun centerpiece. Include items like:
Now, let's move on to exploring chic floral arrangements that will add a touch of elegance and freshness to your stylish baby shower.
Chic Floral Arrangements
For a stylish and sophisticated touch at your gender-neutral baby shower, consider incorporating chic floral arrangements throughout the space. The expecting mama will love it.
Whether you opt for a classic bouquet of soft pastel blooms or a modern arrangement of tropical florals, the addition of fresh flowers will add a touch of elegance and freshness to your event. And these are not only for summer baby showers. Any season is the perfect season for a floral arrangement.
You have a lot of freedom to change up color palette if you are not catering specifically to the baby's gender. A good neutral option can be to just use greenery. I lined up my dessert table with some beautiful green eucalyptus stems and white berries. Use various shades of green for added dimension or other wood elements for a woodland baby shower theme.
Dessert Table Display
For the dessert table showcase, focus on creating a visually appealing spread that complements the overall aesthetic. Incorporate a variety of sweet treats such as cupcakes, cookies, bars, cake pops, and macarons in coordinating colors to add a touch of elegance to the table. Make sure to include a variety of finger foods as well as dessert that may require plates and utensils.
As mentioned above, consider using cake stands, tiered trays, and decorative platters to showcase the desserts in an organized and eye-catching manner. This curated dessert table will not only satisfy your guests' sweet tooth but also serve as a beautiful focal point at your stylish event.
Remember what I said about different heights? Creating a donut cake stack is an easy way to do that. See more ideas on displaying donuts for your dessert table here and here.

Themed Balloon Arrangements
To create a stunning centerpiece for your gender-neutral baby shower, consider adding a balloon arch backdrop that will make a bold statement in your event space. Easy instructions for a balloon arch or garland here.
A balloon arch or garland is super nice because it is an easy way to frame a focal point or create a central space. I created a fun focal point with a balloon garland in bright colors for my mom's 60th birthday party. By combining themed balloons in various sizes, colors, and textures, you can create a visually striking focal point that ties in perfectly with your stylish celebration.
Balloons are a versatile and cost-effective way to add a pop of color and playfulness to your event space. Consider creating balloon arrangements that match the theme of your baby shower. You can opt for balloon arches, garlands, or even sculptures to make a statement and create a visual focal point at your party.
These are some favorite baby shower themes that are fairly neutral:
- Safari adventure
- Base it on a favorite children's book
- Nautical baby shower
- Base it on a classic nursery rhyme
- Travel-themed baby shower
- Woodland wonderland
To achieve a cohesive look, select balloons in a mix of coordinating colors or patterns that tie in with your overall decor scheme. You can also add metallic accents, tassels, or floral embellishments to elevate the look of your balloon installations. Hang them above the dessert table, entrance, or photo backdrop. I added balloon clusters all around the dessert table for added emphasis.
Get creative with your balloon arrangements by incorporating themed elements such as baby rattles, storks, or cloud-shaped balloons to reinforce the gender-neutral theme. These whimsical touches will not only delight your guests but also add a touch of charm to your stylish event.
