She may be the designer, but it’s Rebecca Minkoff‘s girlfriends who had her baby bash in the bag.

On June 7, good friends and family showered the handbag connoisseur and her husband Gavin Bellour with love to celebrate the August arrival of their baby girl, whom the couple’s 2½-year-old son Luca Shai has nicknamed Gouda. And the outdoor affair was anything but cheesy.

Held in Brooklyn, the brightly lit “magical” space was filled with fresh flowers from Hops Petunia Floral and Cristina Lozito and pops of gray and soft purple decorations.

“I knew nothing before I arrived so walking in to Fitzcarraldo and seeing all the surprises, friends, family and decor was just amazing,” Minkoff tells PEOPLE of the chic coed fête, which was put together with the help of Rock Paper Scissors Events.

It was a family affair on Saturday at the Sugar Factory in L.A., as Vanessa Simmons and boyfriend Mike Wayans welcomed their respective broods and close friends to their intimate baby shower designed by Cairo’s Custom Events.

Guests including Simmons’s father Rev. Run, step-mom Justine and sister Angela, as well as Mike’s dad and brother — Damon and Damon Jr. — and uncle Marlon were greeted by a sign that read: “Rub a dub dub, a new little girl to love.”

Other attendees included Tyrese and his daughter Shayla and mom-of-three Ali Landry.

The couple, who are expecting a girl next month, treated everyone to a special menu — featuring yummy bites of sourdough grilled cheese fingers served atop roasted tomato soup shooters — that was created by Citron Catering. Mommy mock-tails and Zing Vodka cocktails were also served as refreshments.

To get an idea of how many arts and crafts projects Soleil Moon Frye works on with her two daughters, Poet, 8, and Jagger, 5, just take a look around their L.A. home.

“Our tiles are covered in paint. If you look under our couch pillows, there is paint. Our table is covered in paint,” says the expectant mom-of-two. “It’s very, very messy, but that’s the fun of it.”

That fun reaches North Pole-like levels on Christmas Eve, when the former child star, 37, and her husband, producer Jason Goldberg, 43, host a holiday blowout — complete with a crafting area for the littlest guests.
