If you are beginning to think about how and when to have a baby shower there are a few things that you need to consider before you start all the more detailed planning. The very first and most considerable part of a baby shower is the guests. If no one are able to attend then there will not be any party in the first place.
In the busy times that we live in and the many parties that we are enduringly invited to all kinds of parties, company trips, team construction events etc. And it can be a challenge to find the time to attend a baby shower party if the plans are already made. To avoid your friends and family not advent to the baby shower you need to send out the invitations as far in develop as you maybe can. This will be the best inherent way to make sure that the most people will be able to attend.
A shower for the new baby will just not be the same if the loving and caring family is not there. Therefore you need to plan either the invitations that you are sending out should be home made or bought pre made. Both will do just fine and it is more a matter of taste, time and creativity.
Home made invitations will be the most unique but will also be the most time spellbinding even though you will be able to do them rather swiftly by using a few of the ideas that I will be providing you with here.
One of the best and easiest ways to generate a unique invitation for a baby shower is by using thick (180 grams) paper in any color you like and adding a baby footprint to that invitation. You will be able to find baby footprint kits in a lot of distinct stores both online and offline. You can even add a wee poem (self made or pre made) to the invitation if you want to add that extra touch.
When the invitations are sent, you will need to move on to planning the event it self. Baby showers are not the most difficult of parties but you will still need to consider the food, the drinks and not to forget the games to be played.
It is always a good idea to test everything in develop so you are sure that there will be no (or at least very few) surprises on the big day. I always advise that any food you have decided to cook must be tested and tasted prior to the baby shower to avoid any "uneatable" foods. A great party can unquestionably be ruined by horrible food so make sure to test.
To save you some time, money and hassle you should make up your mind fairly early what you would like that your guest should drink. This will enable you to find it at discounted prices and you can carry it home a wee at a time instead of breaking your back trying to carry it all at once.
Baby shower games are a fun part of the event and if you are new to these events I advise that you do a wee seach on Google because the "net" is filled with ideas of games to play.
The last thing which you will need to plan is the decoration. Pink colors are often used for girls and blue are used for boys but the choice is yours and yours alone so pick any color you think fits your baby. To add an extra touch to the ornamentation would be to use flower decorations in the same colors as you have chosen for the rest of the baby shower theme. That would unquestionably perfect the event so that your friends and family would think very of you and your party planning skills.
