Having your first child is one of those pivotal moments you never forget. You want to create an event to celebrate the new situation. However, you need to find the best course of action. Here are some tips to help you plan a baby shower.
Create a Theme
Whether you want to put on Hawaiian shirts or a gold baby shower dress, it's good to have a theme for the event. It'll help you pick various colors for your house, party favors, food, and other things to make the occasion come together.
You might stick with a gender-neutral theme to make it easier for your guests to dress accordingly. Consider how it'll make things run smoother from how you create the optimal background for your gathering and make some delicious treats to appeal to your family and friends.
Think About Your Guest List
Do you want it to be a bit more extravagant with coworkers coming to the event? Maybe you want to rent out a venue to help cater to the big audience. Also, you might want it to be just family and close friends.
You might feel more comfortable having the gathering at your house or a relative's home to keep it more intimate. Knowing this early in the planning stages can help you create a better budget. You'll be realistic with how you approach things, and it'll help you relieve stress from all of the logistics of the event.
What Games Do You Want for the Event?
It's nice to break the ice with a few games to get people more into the party. People will speak to each other more and create a team environment. Maybe you can have a challenge where they do a Pictionary thing to draw and guess various baby items.
Maybe they can even have you do a blindfold game where players can look for items, and whoever finds the most things gets a gift card at the end.
Capturing Memories
You can get people to sign a guestbook to share that they attended the event. Also, they can give them some words of encouragement and wisdom to read down the road.
You might have a wall with a theme to take funny photos to get a laugh when you look through your scrapbook. Your maternity party is a timeless occasion that you will remember before or after having your child.
