1. Pumpkin spice cake or cupcakes

A great use of fall flavors and a way to offer a sweet treat to guests is to use cake or cupcakes with colored cream or colored candies inside that will reveal the gender once they are cut into. 

Pumpkin spice is a perfect flavor for a fall gender reveal cake, and you can even decorate it with a sweet pun like, “We love you, Little Pumpkin!”

2. Pumpkin patch fall

Pumpkin patches seem to pop up everywhere as fall gets into full swing. Your visit to one can also double as your gender reveal photo announcement. 

Take a photo of all the pumpkins you can fit in the frame at the patch. Then, once you get home, change the image to black and white, and color one pumpkin in either blue or pink.

A small pumpkin works best for this idea so that people understand what they see in the photo. 

The big reveal can be uploaded to social media, sent to loved ones, or simply shared with your partner.

3. Confetti Pumpkin

This is a fun way to surprise everyone at your gender reveal party, and it takes very little work to set it all up.

All you need is a hollowed-out pumpkin and some blue or pink confetti. 

Have the person who knows the gender fill the pumpkin with the confetti and then invite people to watch as the mom and dad reach into the pumpkin and pull out the confetti.

This is one of the many reveal ideas that make for a great photo opportunity.

4. Pink bow on a pumpkin

Those ideas guests talk about for a long time after that leave memories are often the simplest. Have a large pumpkin representing your baby, and place a pink bow on it when it’s time to announce the gender if it’s a girl. You can use a blue hat or another boy item to announce if it is a baby boy.

5. Pumpkin belly paint

If you don’t mind showing some skin, this makes for a great photo or something you can do at a gender reveal party. 

For a picture, create a pumpkin painting on your bump with washable, nontoxic body paint. Add pink or blue accents to it and take a photo to announce the gender.

You can even include a pink or blue pumpkin to represent your baby’s gender.

6. Smoke sticks in little pumpkins

A simple way to do a gender reveal picture is to post online, share it with family and friends, or do it in front of guests at your reveal party. 

Line up some gutted pumpkins with one or several smoke sticks in them that are pink or blue, depending on gender.

At the right moment, when everyone is ready for the big reveal, have the smoke sticks set off!

Other fall gender reveal ideas

Pumpkins are great and can certainly be used as decor for a fall gender reveal party. 

If you prefer that the pumpkins take the backseat and the spotlight is on some other fall staple, the following ideas for the theme of your gender reveal party may be right up your alley.

1. Ghoul or Boo-y Theme Halloween

This play-on-words theme is cute and silly and will make your friends and family chuckle. You can play fun Halloween games and make the party a spooky but cute event with a twist that, in the end, you’ll announce what gender your baby is.

2. Corn Maze

This one takes knowing someone with a cornfield or getting in touch with a farmer or business with a corn maze that they may allow you to rent for your gender reveal party.

Tell your family and friends that a pumpkin hidden somewhere in the corn maze is either pink or blue, and the first person to find it wins a prize. 

This will make your guests eager to be the first to experience the joy of knowing whether you are having a boy or a girl.

3. Winter is Coming

If you’re a Game of Thrones fan, you probably read that heading in Ned Stark’s voice. The wildly popular show and book series Game of Thrones (GOT) was all about the fact that winter is coming.

Have a House Stark family-themed party, complete with the family banner, and reveal to everyone whether you will be having the Warden or Matron of the North. You can also play fun trivia games based on the show, have guests select their favorite boy and girl characters, and get fun with the decor.

4. Colored caramel apples

If you speak with a local baker or confectioner, you may find that most can color caramel apples so that you will see either pink or blue when you bite into them. 

Serve these as treats for gender reveal parties, and watch as everyone finds the tasty surprise together!

5. Election Night

If you’re more into politics and the polls than you are pumpkins and lattes, put a fun spin on the November elections with a gender reveal that gets people voting.

Make a ballot box, and ask guests to vote on whether they think the baby is a boy or a girl. Count the votes, announce the winner, and then make the announcement.

6. Colored fire pit smoke

One of the coziest fall reveal party ideas is to host a bonfire or fire pit gathering. 

Online, purchase a color-changing powder packet that will change the color of the flames for a few minutes.

Opt for pink or blue depending upon the big reveal. 

As it gets dark and everyone gathers around the fire, sprinkle the color dust onto the flames and get ready for the excitement to start as the flames go from yellow, red, and orange to pink or blue.
