Baby Shower Invitations

Today I thought I'd add information about baby shower invitations. Baby shower invitations start the excitement and set the mood of the baby shower. Depending on the baby shower theme and the Mommy's interests, you can have fun planning the baby shower invitations.

Make sure to consider these things:

• the number of people attending
• the baby shower theme
• sex of the baby (if known)
• are there creative people helping that want to create the invitations
• what does Mommy-to-be like?

If you're inclined to create the baby shower invitations, you may want to visit a card store to get ideas. If you purchase the baby shower invitations, make sure to give yourself enough time to order them and send them out. Invitations should go out around 6 to 8 weeks before the shower. Give guests at least 2 weeks to reply and make sure to have extra invitations for any last minute invites.

Make sure to include the following information on the baby shower invite:

• Name of Mommy-to-be and the host(s)
• Location
• Date and time
• Directions
• Phone number in case questions
• RSVP date
• Where mommy-to-be is registered
• Theme of the party (if chosen)
• Dress code (formal or casual)
• Anything guests should bring

For those of you who would like more formal baby shower invitations, visit my friend's site - She does beautiful calligraphy for invitations.

Feel free to also send an online baby shower card. This is a really cool!
