Who usually plans a gender reveal party?

Answered by Robert Dupre

When it comes to planning a gender reveal party, it’s typically the expecting couple who takes on the role of hosting. I know, it might seem like one more thing to add to your already busy to-do list as you prepare for the arrival of your little one. But the good news is that a gender reveal party is usually a less formal affair compared to a traditional baby shower.

From my own experience, my partner and I hosted our own gender reveal party, and it was a lot of fun to plan and prepare for. We wanted to share the excitement of finding out the gender of our baby with our close family and friends, and hosting the party ourselves allowed us to personalize the event according to our own preferences.

However, I do want to mention that there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to who should host a gender reveal party. Some families may choose to have a close friend or family member take on the role of host, especially if the expecting couple prefers a more relaxed and enjoyable experience without having to worry about the logistics of organizing the event.

In the end, the decision of who hosts the gender reveal party really depends on the preferences and circumstances of the expecting couple. Whether you choose to take on the role of host yourselves or delegate the task to someone else, the most important thing is to create a memorable and joyous occasion where you can celebrate the upcoming arrival of your little bundle of joy.
