A little over a month ago I hosted a very small and intimate Gender Reveal Party that was just for our immediate family. The theme that I went with was a Donut/Teddy Bear theme and while the setup and decor were very simple I was very happy with the outcome and thought everything came out nicely! Since it’s my second pregnancy I wanted to do something just as sweet and simple as my first gender reveal so I decided to go with a donut theme this time around and have donuts ordered from The Salty Donut to do the big reveal!
I choose The Salty Donut because in my opinion they are one of the best donut shops in Miami and when I heard that they make special donuts for gender reveal parties I just knew that I had to get my hands on at least a dozen of them for my party! I was beyond happy and satisfied when I got the donuts not only because they were super delicious but also because they were decorated so beautifully! Each donut had either a blue or pink filling inside and my best friend made sure to put our donuts aside until it was time to do the reveal in front of our families.
Aside from The Salty Donut which was the main highlight of our party, we also had some colorful sprinkles donuts from Dunkin Donuts and Pastelitos from Vicky Bakery because a party is never complete without some Cuban pastries! For the decorations everything that I ordered was from Amazon including the cutest inflatable donuts which I thought were perfect to use for photo props and for the kids to play with as well! Lily especially had a blast taking photos with it and walking around the whole backyard with them 🙂
When it came down to the big reveal my best friend Hepsy handed my husband and I two donuts and we sat down and started biting into our donuts to get to the filling. As we both got to the filling we noticed it was Pink inside and I immediately got super excited at that moment because my husband and I were really hoping to have another girl! My husband and I just smiled at each other and then showed everyone the inside of the donuts and of course everyone was super excited and happy for us especially since most of them voted for team girl 🙂
That moment felt like it went by so quickly but my husband and I were so happy to find out that we are having another girl and after the reveal we immediately grabbed our daughter Lily to take some photos with her and finally tell her that she was going to have a little sister!!! Overall, we had such a memorable time with our families and felt so blessed that we got to share this very significant moment of our lives with most of them! The next thing we are looking forward to is planning our baby shower so we are also very excited about that! 🙂
