What Is a Gender Reveal Party?

A Gender Reveal Party is an exciting event for soon-to-be parents, and their close friends and family. When planning on organizing such an event, you should create and send a Gender Reveal Invitation, inviting your guests to attend and join in the fun on your very important day.

Alternate Names:

• Gender Reveal Invite;
• Gender Reveal Party Invitation.

The celebration usually involves a range of activities for the guests, mostly related to guessing or predicting what gender a baby will be. In most cases, only the mother will know the gender of the baby that she is carrying. In some cases, even the mother will not know – the gender of the child may be written on a piece of paper by the doctor and this paper will be given to the person responsible for the ‘reveal’ element of the party. Sometimes this can be a cake where the color of the filling will indicate the gender – blue for a boy, pink for a girl, or a balloon containing confetti of either blue or pink. Popping the balloon will cause an explosion of confetti which will unveil the gender of the baby.

How to Do a Gender Reveal?

Even though throwing a Gender Reveal Party is exciting, it can also be extremely stressful to organize and prepare. For this reason, we have collected a short list of useful tips and hints to ensure that your party goes off without a hitch:

• Select a theme for the party. You can keep it simple and choose the traditional pink and blue style or something more specific if you have a particular interest or hobby;

• Make an appointment for your scan to ensure that you will definitely know the gender before you throw the party;

• Pick a convenient date, time and venue for the event and prepare invitations for guests. The invitation should be sent out no later than one month before the planned party;

• Think in detail about how you would like the reveal to go ahead. A typical way to do this is through cakes with the filling color corresponding to a gender. Perhaps you would want to pop balloons with colored confetti inside or open up a gigantic box filled with colored helium balloons;

• Consider filming the special moment. Not only is it great for memories but also can be sent out to friends and family that were not able to make the party, allowing them to witness the exciting moment with you.

Who to Invite to a Gender Reveal Party?

The rule is generally simple – invite your immediate family and close friends. Friends that you are not close with, extended members of family and colleagues do not generally receive an invite as this party is rather personal and orientated around family.

If you are struggling with the Gender Reveal Invitation wording, remember that it should be short and elegant. From first glance, it must be clear what the invitation is for. It may also be a good idea to briefly explain the concept of the party if there are individuals that are unaware of such events and have never heard of them before. Of course, ensure that you add all of the relevant information on the invite including the date, time, location, and theme (if there is one).
