Set Sail
You can’t go wrong with a nautical theme for a baby boy. Maybe it’s because they look so freakin’ cute in a sailor suit!
Go Wild!
We all know boys are a little wild—that’s one of the reasons we love ‘em! A jungle theme or even something more specific, like this Wild One cake smash—is the perfect way to celebrate baby boy’s first birthday.
On the Right Track
Boys are fascinated by things that go. Usually the faster the better! So why not a racecar theme for a truly winning cake smash photography session?
Next Stop: Adventure!
I’ve never met a boy who didn’t love airplanes. And it starts young! Bring out your little guy’s sense of adventure with an aviation-themed cake smash.
Farmyard Fun
Mud pies, anyone? It doesn’t get much cuter than a tiny farmer in overalls (or suspenders and a cow print bow tie!) partying it up with all his barnyard friends.
