So, you’re in charge of hosting your sister’s baby shower? How exciting! The possibilities are endless. To truly honor this new beginning, all you need is a little creative vision and a few personal touches. Here’s five tips to a memorable baby shower.
- Theme: When selecting a theme for the shower, remember that it is all about the mother-to-be. Try to match it to her personality and style. Is she sophisticated? Is she a domestic queen? Is she artsy? Think about her personality, and celebrate her unique style.
Invitations: These set the tone for the entire event, so don’t skimp. You can find some cute ones online or commission a graphic artist to make a one-of-a-kind creation.- Event management: Use RSVP online tools like Eventbrite. That will make your job A LOT easier. These tools display a mock up of your invitation on a website, and create a unique URL for people to accept the invite. There’s no need to search your inbox and voicemail for rogue responses, as everything is right on the website.
- Decorations: Plain old balloons can look tired. Look for a balloon delivery company that will create helium balloon sculptures like a pacifier or flowers. These can serve as your centerpieces. Flowers are also a nice touch.
- Candy: C’mon…did you really expect we’d leave this out? Candied creations make great party favors, as well as treats. Check out our services page for more information.
