Queen Bey also opted for simple, but powerful accessories: a pair of mirrored sunglasses, a head wrap, while [husband Jay Z](http://time.com/4370269/beyonce-lemonade-love-drought-jay-z/), wore all white and danced with the woman of the hour. The guest list was also one for the books, bringing together everyone from [Destiny’s Child’s co-members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams](http://time.com/2894240/destinys-child-reunited-for-michelle-williams-new-music-video/) to high-profile pals like La La Anthony, Vanessa Bryant, and [Serena Williams, who is also currently expecting her first child](http://motto.time.com/4746545/serena-williams-announces-pregnancy-snapchat/). Thankfully for us, Beyoncé’s mom and Instagram user extraordinaire Ms. Tina Lawson was of course in attendance, giving us a look into the party’s festivities and high-profile guest list. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4788074/beyonce-baby-shower-photos/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4788074/beyonce-baby-shower-photos/"},"headline":"Beyoncé's Elaborate Baby Shower Was Predictably Star Studded","datePublished":"2017-05-22T17:39:25.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:43:50.941Z","description":"Everything you need to know about the 'Carter Push Party'","url":"https://time.com/4788074/beyonce-baby-shower-photos/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","viral","Beyonce"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt4d1c5bcc05b203b9/6988ce4abc6cfcac8b3e1752/beyonce-baby-shower.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt4d1c5bcc05b203b9/6988ce4abc6cfcac8b3e1752/beyonce-baby-shower.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The 59th GRAMMY Awards - Roaming Show","caption":"The 59th GRAMMY Awards - Roaming Show","creditText":"Lester Cohen—Getty Images for NARAS","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4788074/beyonce-baby-shower-photos/","name":"Beyoncé's Elaborate Baby Shower Was Predictably Star Studded"}}]}] ```
