by Marsha Bosworth Wedding Planner

The birth of a child is perhaps one of the most profound events that is going to take place in a person's life. In fact, everything leading up to that event is typically full of excitement and happiness. That is especially true when it comes to the baby shower, a gathering that is going to be remembered for many years to come. If you have been put in charge of preparing for the baby shower, there is no doubt that you are concerned about the types of invitations that you are giving. One option that you will want to consider is sending out the invitations in the style of a message in a bottle. Here are some ideas for message in a bottle baby shower invitations that you will find appropriate for your use.

There are really only a few components to the message in a bottle that are going to need to be considered to make it work properly. They include the invitation, some confetti and the bottle itself. Putting things together in the proper proportions is going to make it look well thought out and people are certainly going to appreciate the fact that they are receiving an invitation in this way.

The type of bottle that is used can really vary and you may want to try to theme it in some way or another. Since you are using it for baby shower invitations, one of the obvious things that you can do is to use a baby bottle. There also many other types of bottles that can be used and will be well received for an invitation to a baby shower. You have the opportunity of purchasing them online with the invitation already intact if you're not interested in making them up on your own.

The confetti is going to help to make the message in a bottle baby shower invitations a little more festive. One of the things that you may want to keep in mind when designing this invitation is the sex of the child. If it is known, you could use blue for a boy or pink for a girl but if it is not known, try to stick with a more neutral color. The confetti can be cut out in any number of different shapes, including cribs, baby strollers, baby bottles and rattles. In many party stores, you will be able to find the various types of confetti already cut out and in the proper colors.

Now comes the time when we discuss the invitation. Try to get something that is appropriate for a baby shower and make sure that it is small enough that it will fit comfortably into the bottle. It is always a better idea if you use a printer, unless you are very sure of your writing abilities. Roll the invitation small enough so that it will comfortably fit in and out of the opening to the bottle and seal it with a sticker. When you make your baby shower invitations in this way, you'll find that people are excited about the event, long before it occurs.
