Planning a baby shower for your BFF can be a fun and exciting experience — especially if she's having a little girl! That said, it can also get pretty overwhelming. After all, any good party planner will want to make sure that the mom-to-be is happy with all their decisions — from the venue to the food to the shower games — which isn't easy. And, when it comes to adding small but meaningful decor touches to the day, like beautiful baby shower centerpieces, there can be a lot of options and styles to choose from.
Figuring out what works best for your event will depend on a few things, so ask yourself now: What's the baby shower theme? What's the mom-to-be's style? And (perhaps most important of all), what's the budget?
Scroll on for 30 baby shower centerpiece ideas that are perfect for welcoming a sweet baby girl into the world.

If the mom-to-be has already spilled the beans about the baby's name, this is a great way to celebrate her upcoming arrival. You can easily customize them before buying, and then stick them inside a bouquet of flowers on each table.
