Baby Showers can be so much fun to attend, and yes, even fun to plan.
This guide hopes to give you a few tips to make your shower planning
easy and your shower a fun affair for everyone.
To start your shower planning, you need to decide when to have it and
whether it's going to be a surprise. Having the mom-to-be know about the baby shower can make the planning of the shower much easier. You can ask the mom-to-be what types of things she likes and then plan the shower around the information she has provided. If you want it to be a surprise, you
will need to enlist the help of a family member (if you aren't one).
They can help you find out what day would be good for the shower, who
the honoree would like to have in attendance, where they are
registered, and most importantly, help you get the honoree to the
party without spoiling the surprise.
Now, you've set the date, it's time to send the invitations. Decide if
you want this to be an all woman shower, or if you are going to invite
the guys. If you decide you want the shower to be co-ed, this will
probably change the types of baby shower games you decide to play. On your
invitations be sure to note the date, time, and place of the shower.
Include your name and number for questions or RSVPs. You can also list
any shower themes or where the honoree is registered. There are many different baby shower ideas you can use to help you plan the decorations, games, food and theme of the party. A little research and a lot of creativity can lead to an extremely memorable baby shower for both the mom-to-be and the attendees.
Once the invitations have been sent, you now need to decide what party games,
decorations and food you will need. It helps to make a list, so you
can check off items as you complete them. While all this sounds pretty simple, if you are not organized or if you don't know where to look for ideas and tips, planning a baby shower can be particularly stressful for you and any people you ask to help you. The links below will lead you to many growing areas with information on how to plan a baby shower, what games to play, and themes to build the party around.
That's it! Your party is planned and the last thing to do is sit back
and have fun! Babies are special and your part in helping celebrate
the arrival of your honoree's baby will always be a special memory
for her. |
