As soon as we know we are expecting we tend to start thinking about all the celebrations we can have. For example, we might determine if we want to throw a gender reveal party and if so, who we might want to invite. Gender reveal parties are great because they work for any size group.

  Gender reveal parties are a wonderful way to celebrate. We often need to take a moment to consider who we want at our celebration. We may end up inviting family and friends who have supported us so far and who will continue to support us as we raise our children. We can hold very intimate and small gatherings or throw a party with all our friends and family that lights up the whole neighborhood. 

Gender Reveal With Only Close Family

  Gender reveal parties are a great way to get close family involved. This might look like sharing the gender with our partner. This also might look like allowing older children to get in on the celebration. Gender reveal parties are a great way to introduce older children to their soon-to-be siblings. Building this connection helps older children better prepare to be big brothers and big sisters. It is important that they understand they will play an important role in helping watch over their new brother or sister. That's why we came up with the best gender reveal ideas with siblings. 

  If we are focusing on close family we might consider a gender reveal balloon kit, using a gender reveal box or other small-scale gender reveal items. We might also consider going a yummy route and trying gender reveal desserts or mini cakes because family will always enjoy a sweet treat. In the end it doesn't matter exactly how we choose to celebrate. What is important is that we share the news with close family members so that together we can support each other and help raise our new child.

Celebrating With Wider Family Circles

  Gender reveal parties are also great celebrations to invite family members you might not see all too often. They are great ways to share the gender of our child with grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, etc. Such events allow us to feel connected to our wider family and allow them the opportunity to celebrate with us. It is always nice for us to know that we are surrounded by a family that loves us dearly even before our child is born.

  In addition, when we are thinking about including our wider family circles, we might think about what type of reveal we want to create and that we can share via pictures, video, or a zoom call. We might even consider shipping gender reveal items to our distant family members so everyone can be surprised at the same time. This means that even if family members happen to live far away, they are still able to be part of the celebration. The perfect items to ship to family members include gender reveal confetti cannons or gender reveal smoke bombs. 

A Gender Reveal Surprise With Friends

  In addition to inviting family, many of us will want to share the news with our friends. This might include close childhood friends, friends from work, or neighbors who we simply want to share the good news with. If we are inviting a wide range of friends and neighbors, we might choose to use a gender reveal powder cannon kit, a pink or blue gender reveal confetti poppers or other gender reveal product that allows a large crowd to be involved in our celebration. We want to make sure that everyone has the chance to know our good news. 

  When planning celebrations for larger groups we might want to focus on gender reveal items which can be used outside so everyone can see the reveal. Outdoor celebrations are great chances to use a sports related gender reveal item such as a gender reveal soccer ball, a gender reveal basketball, or a gender reveal golf ball. Outdoor celebrations and car enthusiasts can enjoy partaking in a gender reveal burnout. When we are sharing the gender reveal with a large group of friends and family members it is important that we dream big. 

  When we consider who to invite to our gender reveal it often comes down to three main groups. Sometimes we will focus on close family members, sometimes we will focus on our wider families, and sometimes we will want to focus on all our friends and neighbors too. In the end it comes down to sharing our gender reveal with those we feel close to or those we want to celebrate with. There is no right or wrong number of people to invite. If we all can enjoy the celebration, we are golden.
