The brief
A play on 'Sweet Baby Ray's', the family wanted a backyard barbecue that doubled as a baby shower, casual and warm rather than precious.

The approach
Leaned all the way into red-gingham-and-sunflower picnic styling: burlap pennant bunting, a sunflower diaper cake, a 'Momosa Bar', and custom touches like Sweet Baby Ray's sauce-bottle favors and hand-iced baby-bottle cookies. Indoors got a styled sunroom; outdoors, gingham-topped tables with watermelon pillows.
The outcome
A cohesive cookout from welcome sign to dessert, every detail in on the pun.
