The couple’s enthusiasm was palpable during the weekend, as loved ones gathered for an elaborate, fun-filled baby shower on Saturday. The event, planned by Cuoco’s sister Briana, featured a live band, a multi-course dinner, and dancing.
A stunning multi-tiered cake, filled with special embellishments reflecting the couple’s own past, was also offered for guests.

To honor Pelphrey’s East Coast background, the other side of the cake had a New York Giants emblem and a football.
The lavish shower was capped off with a light show with 400 drones depicting various scenes and messages. Cuoco described it as the “coolest and most beautiful thing on Earth” when she posted a photo of the drones spelling out “Baby Girl Pelphrey 2023” in the night sky on Instagram.
The drones then showed a bird, most likely a stork, soaring by and dropping off a package that transformed into a “B” to spell out “Big Baby City.” An image of a father and mother with a child in between them was also shown, as well as signs reading “It’s a Girl!” and “Tom + Kaley” surrounded by hearts.

“I heard his voice, and I turned around, and it was like my life was over, or just starting. It hit me. It was love at first sight,” Cuoco said. “We were immediately connected. I do feel like I’ve known him my whole life, but I wasn’t ready for him.”
