It Was the Little Details That Made This Storybook Baby Shower Unlike Any Other

Even though this mom had a classic storybook-inspired baby shower, nothing about her bash was typical. To celebrate their family's newest arrival, Kristen's sister focused on the small details from a variety of beloved children's books to create a memorable affair.

After making a list of must-read stories for the little one, she took ideas from each story to create the afternoon's menu. From caprese salad skewers in honor of I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato and meatballs from Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs to dessert including moon pies as a nod to Goodnight Moon, each dish and drink served enhanced the day's feel. For another special touch, guests were asked to sign a copy of Curious George in lieu of a traditional guestbook (which will be something the baby will grow to cherish).
