Baby Shower Invitation
Baby Shower Invitation
Baby Showers are as popular as ever, so if you’re planning one, I’m not surprised. But it might surprise you to find out that one of the most important parts of a Baby Shower is often the most neglected — not the games, not the guests, but the Baby Shower invitations. Baby Shower Invitations tell your guests when and where your shower will be, of course, but they have the added benefit of telling your guests what kind of shower it will be, what they might be expected to bring, and how much you appreciate the fact that they’re coming.
The text of your Baby Shower Invitations should tell your guests a few things: the date and time of your party (be sure to double- or triple-check this!), the location, and what to bring. Beyond this, it’s nice to include a note to the specific recipient you’re sending the card to, to let them know you appreciate that they’ll be there.
The appearance of the Baby Shower Invitations — the design, the font, and the material — is a great way to show people what kind of shower you’re planning. If you’re scheduling a large event at a restaurant, you may want a card that emphasizes the fact that it is, after all, a party. If it’s a smaller gathering in your home with just a few friends, you might want a card with muted colors and a more subtle design, to show guests that they will mostly be among people they already know.
When you’re picking out a card, it’s nice to keep in mind that baby shower invitations are going to be referred to again and again. If you send the card a few weeks in advance, you might expect your guests to at least glance at it dozens of times before arriving. Because of this, your baby shower invitations are going to be the main source for their preconceptions about the event. Because of this, it’s important to think twice about the baby shower invitation you send. You don’t want your guests expecting a small gathering of half a dozen people, only to encounter a huge bash (and Baby Showers do come in all shapes and sizes).
There’s a huge variety of baby shower invitations to choose from. You can pick a design that focuses on the child itself, a design that emphasizes the mother-to-be, a picture of baby-related toys, or even a simple geometric design that doesn’t specifically involve anything at all related to Baby Showers. By selecting the invitation that fits your style best, you can help get your guests in the mood for whatever kind of baby shower you have planned — if you’re doing traditional Baby Shower Games (the last shower I attended had pictionary, and baby-food blind taste-testing) you can pick out baby shower invitations with a motif that reminds people of the child. If you’re going to avoid the standard baby shower tropes, you might select a more generic card.
When it comes to baby shower invitations, the possibilities are endless. Picking the right invitation card gives you guests a chance to get ready for the big event, and lets you show them that you appreciate their support as well.
