If you’re a Wicked fan (or just love a good Broadway-inspired bash), an Emerald City baby shower is the perfect way to celebrate your little one’s grand entrance! Whether you want full theatrical flair or subtle nods to the beloved musical, we’ve got all the inspiration you need. So grab your broomstick (or bubble!), and let’s plan a shower that’s truly spellbinding! ✨

Pick Your Wicked Theme

Before you start decorating, decide on the overall vibe:

  • Emerald City Glam – Think glitz, sparkle, and all things green. A luxe, city-chic baby shower with metallics, velvet, and glam details. ✨
  • Good vs. Wicked – Celebrate the balance of sweet and sassy with a Glinda vs. Elphaba theme. Soft pinks and gold for Glinda, moody greens and blacks for Elphaba—because every mom has a little bit of both.
  • Broadway Magic – Lean into the musical theater aspect with Playbill-style invites, a mini stage setup for photos, and a playlist full of Wicked’s greatest hits.
  • Something Wicked This Way Comes – A slightly eerie yet elegant take, playing up the mystical side of the story with dark decor and candlelit ambiance.
  • Munchkinland Whimsy – A playful, colorful baby shower inspired by the Munchkins, complete with oversized lollipops, rainbow decor, and fun, childlike elements. 🎭

Invitations That Set the Scene

Set the tone with creative invitations:

  • "Something Wicked This Way Comes… and It’s a Baby!"
  • "A Baby as Good as Glinda, as Fierce as Elphaba!"
  • Broadway Ticket Invites – Send out invitations designed like Playbill covers or theater tickets.
  • Spellbook Scrolls – Roll up invitations like magical scrolls tied with green or pink ribbon.

Bonus idea: Use glow-in-the-dark ink or metallic foil details for an extra enchanting touch! ✨

Spellbinding Decor Ideas

Transform your space into a scene straight out of Oz:

  • Emerald Everywhere – Green balloons, table runners, and shimmering curtains to mimic the Emerald City.
  • Good vs. Wicked Tables – One side all pink and gold, the other deep green and black—let guests pick their side!
  • Floating Witch Hats – Suspend witch hats from the ceiling for a whimsical, flying effect.
  • Broadway Marquee – Set up a light-up sign that says "Defying Gravity."
  • Spellbook Centerpieces – Stack books with mystical covers alongside candles and glittering accents. 🧙‍♀️

Enchanting Food & Drinks

Make your menu as magical as the show:

  • Elphaba’s Wicked Punch – A green apple or lime punch served in cauldron-style bowls.
  • Glinda’s Bubble Tea Bar – Because what’s a good witch without her bubbles?
  • "Popular" Pink Cupcakes – Topped with edible glitter and tiny tiaras.
  • "Defying Gravity" Cake – A tiered cake with a silhouette of Elphaba flying.
  • Munchkinland Treats – Mini sliders, rainbow candy, and colorful cake pops. 🍏

Bonus: Label foods with fun names like Flying Monkey Wings (chicken wings) and Glinda’s Sugar Wands (rock candy sticks).

Magical Activities & Games

Entertain guests with Wicked-themed fun:

  • Sing-Along Station – Set up a karaoke corner with Wicked songs for guests to belt out! 🎤
  • "Which Witch Are You?" Quiz – A fun personality quiz to see if guests are more like Glinda or Elphaba.
  • Baby Prophecies – Guests write down funny or sweet predictions for the baby’s future.
  • Broomstick Relay Race – A lighthearted game where guests balance a broom while racing to the finish line.
  • Emerald City Photo Booth – With themed props like witch hats, tiaras, and quote signs.

Party Favors to Send Guests Home in Style

Give guests a little bit of Wicked to take home:

  • Mini Playbill-Style Thank You Notes
  • Emerald Bath Bombs 💚
  • "Defying Gravity" Candles
  • Green Apple Lollipops
  • Witchy Charm Bracelets
