Baby showers are so much fun, but hosting one can feel a little daunting! While they can be a lot of work, it is so worth the happiness of getting everyone together and celebrating the pending arrival of a darling new addition!
We recently hosted a shower in our home and had such a great time. This gorgeous Mommy-to-be has been our neighbor since was three! She doesn’t remember not having us in her life. The very second they told us of the amazing little miracle on the way, I offered to host her shower.

Here are my thoughts on how to plan a stress free party!
1. Ask Guest of Honor for any preferences, dislikes or restrictions and choose date
2. Discuss Baby Registry with Mommy-to-Be to have an understanding of what she likes
3. Choose theme or color scheme
4. Request invitation list to get a feel for the numbers
5. Consider location and where to photograph guests
6. Plan menu and create list for food as well as needed table ware
7. Choose decor, considering time needed for crafting 😉 and create list
8. Prepare and send invitations via electronics, snail mail or both
9. Cook or order menu
10. Final Set Up
Please come back for more baby shower posts. I’m writing tutorials for the the centerpieces and garland I made, along with editing photos of the food and drink tables! Whew! I can hardly wait to show you!
What’s your favorite thing about baby showers? How do you like to plan them?
