Baby shower Invitations

An invitation to a baby shower is the first taste your guests will get of the event. It's a good idea to decide on the theme of your day before you send the invitations, so the theme is continued throughout. Remember that your invitations do not have to be traditional - they can be very creative depending on what type of event you are planning.

Remember the basics:

  Baby shower checklist

  1. Decide on the date. It's a good idea to hold a baby shower about six weeks before the due date so there's less chance of an early delivery. Surprise parties are not a good idea, unless you are sure that it does not clash with pregnancy appointments.
  2. Will your baby shower have a theme? It is often fun to have a theme that relates to the baby if the mother knows if she is having a boy or girl – for example guests could all dress in pink or blue if the mother knows what they are having. Or perhaps if it is a mystery, the guests could dress in either pink or blue, depending on what they THINK the baby will be, a boy or girl!
  3. Decide what type of baby shower you are arranging. Some ideas are: high tea, pampering at a beauty salon, girls movie day, or manicure and pedicure session at the host's home!
  4. Will your baby shower have games? Do not plan too many games. Allow plenty of time for people to socialise. Three to five games is perfect.
  5. Arrange transport if required, such as hire a minibus to take people to the event.
  6. Plan ahead for everything you will need - food, drinks, ice, napkins, music!
  7. Make everyone welcome, and to make introductions easy, get everyone to wear nametags stating who they are and how they know the mother-to-be.
  8. Take lots of photos to remember a wonderful day with your girlfriends!
