Brunches are the best. The timing lets you do something before and after. They can be inside or out. You have lots of outfit options. Plus, we can’t think of a meal with better food and drink! Hello fried chicken and waffles! Now combine this with a gender reveal party, and we’re taking perfection. Here's how to pull one off.
First, let’s discuss the menu —well, to be specific, gender reveal brunch foods can be as pretty to look at as they are to eat. Pink and/or blue frosted donuts? Yes, please. Pink and blue dyed deviled eggs? Absolutely. Cinnamon roll cake pops in little cups of blueberry and strawberry milk? Heaven! And for a healthier choice, how about yogurt pots with strawberries and blueberries? If you place these around the rest of your food choices, no one will notice the waffles and fried chicken aren’t pink and blue. Trust us!
As far as drink options, what is a brunch without mimosas? This is a celebration, right? You can do the traditional orange juice and champagne, or you can do blue lemonade and pink lemonade spritzers with white wine. We also love a “build-your-own” Bloody Mary station. Both of these options allow the drinkers and non-drinkers to control their beverages. The options are endless, and no one will complain no matter which route you go.
With a brunch, you might want to consider a little trick from our friends south of the border. Cascarones are hollowed out chicken eggs that have been filled with confetti. These special confetti filled eggs will hold the answer to the question everyone is asking — boy or girl???? At the appointed time, everyone gets an egg. When the timer goes off, break the egg on the person next to you for a fun reveal that is sure to bring plenty of laughter. Grandma won’t care one bit if her hair is filled with pink confetti when she learns she’s having a new granddaughter.
Another favorite at Villie is to take your Gender Reveal Game from virtual to in person. You can print out your game’s QR code and have people guess the gender at your party. It’s also a way you can raise some cash - each guess comes with a suggested donation to your diaper fund. To set this up, you need to create a Villie Baby Page. This is easy and so worth it. Start here.
When it comes to decor, brunch decorations are usually classically simple. Fluted glasses for the champagne and juice and clear plastic plates or decorative plates to match your theme for brunch. This mimosa bar set up is perfect!
These lantern decorations would be absolutely adorable for a brunch. Simple and elegant.
The most important part of a gender reveal brunch is laughter and love! Do you want to be featured and/or have tips to share with other Villie families? Tag us on Instagram or Tiktok.
