Organise & Book your Baby Showers

About Baby Showers

If you are expecting a baby, firstly congratulations! Now it is time to start thinking about a baby shower. A baby shower is a classic way for expectant parents to host close family and friends as they celebrate the imminent arrival of a baby. Have some fun, share stories and party and people may also usually bring gifts on the day too.

Traditionally the party would be held for women by women, but more recently, some couples choose to open the baby shower to male relatives and friends. Baby showers are generally held in the afternoons,

Consider a date which is close to the potential birth, but not too close that you miss your own event because the baby has arrived! Look for a venue which will match the style and size of the event you are looking to host and remember most baby showers are hosted in the afternoon. With family and friends living around the world, virtual baby showers are now popular, so people can attend online and not miss out.

Many parents are not aware of the gender of their child, so if that is you consider neutral colours rather than the classic blue for a boy or pink for a girl. Decorate your venue or home in a party theme, perhaps with bunting, balloons, and flowers. There are also options to have party equipment such as bouncy castles delivered for children and treat them to chocolate fountain.

Often held between lunch and dinner, catering can be kept simple with an afternoon tea, refreshments, and sandwiches. Cakes and cupcakes will be popular with everyone, and despite most baby shower events being low key you can also consider providing alcohol. A photographer can be hired to ensure you capture all the lovely moments of the day, so be shared with your baby later.

Having a baby is an exciting in people’s lives, so to help you organize a great occasion, Evendo has found some amazing venues, food, and party rentals for your baby shower.
