Baby Shower Invitations - A New Baby Is On The Way

Written by Jeff Fain

Tuesday, 21 October 2008

One of the most important steps of planning a baby shower is finalizing a guest list and selecting baby shower invitations. The arrival of a new baby is very exciting for a mother-to-be and she will love sharing that joy with the people that she loves. Make sure the guest list is complete by involving those closest to the expecting mother and father in the compiling of the names and addresses for your list.

Whether you are planning a small, intimate gathering or a large party, a lot is conveyed by the design of the baby shower invitation. Think first about the gender of the baby. If the mom doesn't know the gender, choose a design with a gender-neutral color. If she does know the gender, a pink or blue invitation will help guests know which gender to buy gifts for.

Another consideration you may have is the theme or decorations of the nursery. If the whole room is decorating with teddy bears, try looking for a design that features teddy bears. Invitations that coordinate with the nursery will look extra special in the baby book.

The design of the baby shower invitation should also reflect what type of shower you are throwing. You can choose bring, fun designs with images of pregnant bellies and baby bottles or you can opt for a more sophisticated design with simple graphics or a beautiful photograph of baby feet.

Provide all the invited guests with the information they will need. In addition to the date, time, and location of the shower, you will also want the guests know where the mother is registered. This will help to ensure that the mother gets the items she needs and it makes it much easier for guests to select items they know the mother will like. Finally, make sure that the invitation includes your phone number and the date by which you would like the invited guests to RSVP.

By following these simple suggestions when selecting baby shower invitations, you can rest assured that you will have a great turn-out. Choose the right invitation and celebrate the upcoming arrival of your loved one's little bundle of joy.
