8 Adorable Adoption Shower or Gotcha Party Ideas

by Maria

There is nothing quite as exciting as welcoming a new member to the family! If you’ve ever been close to someone that has gone through the adoption process or adopted yourself, you know why an adoption shower or gotcha party is so powerful. Adoption can be a long or short process, painful, slow, joyful and exciting. No two stories are the same, and this day is your day.  To cry, to cheer or whatever you need to do!

We adopted our youngest Isabella in 2015, and that moment was so surreal. She had been living with us for a year, and our party was all family–all the people who were going to smother her with love.

I’ve gathered 8 fabulous party themes that would work well to celebrate their arrival or their official joining of the family!

Little Golden Book Party | TINSELBOX

Is there a sweeter way to embrace the wonder of childhood and the miracle of a new family member than this sweet golden book party? I think not! This party theme also makes a great first birthday party too!

We used this theme for Isabella’s first birthday because it was both a birthday and adoption shower for us.  She was such a sweet baby and her little legs were so wobbly. Kinda like a sweet Bambi. Always smiling.
