Many fuss over themes, from movies to parties, themes are very important in setting the mood for any event or occasion. So what if you are planning to host one event; a special event that will celebrate the initiation to motherhood; a baby shower?
Now if you're hosting a baby shower and you know that the pregnant woman and her family will definitely enjoy a Cowboy baby shower theme, what are you supposed to do? Here are some tips in planning a Cowboy baby shower:
Setting the Mood
A Cowboy theme definitely translates into everything country and laid back. So what do you do to conjure such feel? How about making the place be accented with pieces that will accentuate the rustic wild? Something like a blanket or a throw that's made of hide (if you have it) can make the place look shabby chic. Oh don't forget to play your Dolly Parton's if you'd like the music to complement the theme, nothing beats old country music. If you will the shower party in a barn, that's much better as long as you make sure that no bad elements (re: animal poo) will ruin the party.
Setting the Table
You don't need to serve full meals during baby showers. But if you prefer that your guests come home all full and satisfied, Cowboy food like steaks and potato meals can help you a lot here. Stew, burgers, and roasts are some of the type of food that can be enjoyed during a Cowboy baby shower. Cookies and hotdog finger foods can work wonders as well. Don't forget to consider your budget, number of guests, time and venue, your guests preferences and expectations, and whether you'd like to cook for yourself or hire a catering service.
Setting the Presents
If you are to give a gift, you don't have to strictly follow the Cowboy theme. However, it might a bit more special if you exert some effort and look for a nice gift that whispers Yeehaa! if that's even possible. Cute baby boots, felt caps and cowboy-inspired gift sets are excellent present ideas.
Setting the Party Favors
Custom baby boots with Cowboy-ish designs can be great baby shower party favors to give out. You can also give away animal stuffed toys and key chains.
Now don't forget that the baby shower is not just all about the theme, having fun and truly celebrating the cause is what's important.
