Having a baby shower might be one of the best ways to celebrate the coming of a baby in the family. In this way, the coming of the baby to the immediate family, relatives and friends is being celebrated. However, not all have the experience in organizing parties specifically in planning a baby shower.
For a wonderful baby shower, the following have to be considered:
Food – the foremost to be given attention in a baby shower. Be sure that it is suitable for the place and the people attending the occasion. If the party will be held outdoors, you can opt for grilled food. Choose the right food for the right people. Spaghetti and hotdog with marshmallows might be enough for children.
Venue – venue can be the home, outdoors or a function room. If the party is intimate with just a few guests, you can rent a small function room for the event. If you want a bigger celebration, then do it in your house. If you want a bigger space, you can utilize the yard so kids can run around and play. If you want to do games for the kids, then choose a bigger venue for the activities.
Guests – this depends on the budget and how intimate the baby shower is going to be. For an intimate baby shower party, invite close friends only while if you want the party to be informal, include the kids in the invitation so the party will be as festive as possible. Also, get some creative juice to work for your baby shower invitation wording.
Giveaways – small, yet very memorable for occasions like this. A card or a small inexpensive token is enough just to show your appreciation for their presence. It doesn’t have to be expensive, as long as it serves its purpose which is to thank the guests for their presence.
Planning a baby shower is not that difficult. Just take a look at the items mentioned above so that nothing will be left out. To avoid conflicts, book a venue a few days before the occasion. Send the invitation ahead also so your guests can free up their time for the party. If everything will be followed, then you will have a successful celebration.
