You can’t live in the Midwest right now and not have baseball fever. In fact, if you go out in public and you’re not wearing blue, chances are, you’re the odd one out. It’s everywhere, and Midwest pride has never been higher!
When my sister and her boyfriend got engaged during last year’s post season, we knew we’d be throwing them a baseball-themed couples’ shower! So we went to work gathering all kinds of ideas for decorations, foods, and gifts. We threw a couples’ shower because, c’mon, the guys have to have fun, too, and the baseball theme was a big hit! So, if you’re looking for ideas for a World Series party, look no further!
The Decorations
What’s a Baseball party without the baseballs?
White paper lanterns with stitching drawn in red Sharpie
Rubber bases used as placemats
We also created baseball-themed signs to place around the house:
“Locker Room” sign for the bathroom
“What a Catch” sign for the front door
“Gift Shop” sign for the gift table
The Food
The thing about baseball food is it’s easy and universally liked. Who doesn’t love hotdogs, popcorn, and cotton candy?
The Extras
As a gift for the Bride and Groom, we found a wooden C (the first letter of their last name), added baseball stitching to it (with red Sharpie), and had people sign it. And we had baseball caps with “Bride” and “Groom” written on them for the couple to wear at the shower!
The Games
What’s a party without games? We did a quiz about the couple, and also a quiz about Baseball Terminology. Which is a baseball term: Uncle Charlie or Uncle Bob? If you’re curious about the answers, here they are: Baseball Terminology – answers
Get out there and party for our Boys in Blue – Let’s Go Royals!
