Themed Baby Shower

Themed baby showers

I recently organised a “girls night in” themed shower that took place on a Friday evening as opposed to the traditional afternoon event. I think the timing really set the mood and everyone was able to relax while enjoying home-made delicious comfort -style food and fruity cocktails.

One of the highlights of the night was the “stick the bottle on the baby’s mouth game” (remember pin the tail on the donkey from when you were a kid?) - well we all haven’t laughed so hard in years! There’s nothing like blind-folding your best friend, spinning them around and sending them off across the room with a bottle sticker in their hand!

There are so many great ideas for themed baby showers

Baby Showers - The American Way

Baby Showers – American style

It seems like the long-standing American tradition of throwing a baby shower is finally starting to take off in the UK. At last! As a former New Yorker, who has lived in England for the past 6 years, I am thrilled to see that more people are throwing showers as they are such a fab way to celebrate the impending arrival of a little one as well as to help prepare the Mum-to-be for her new role.

While every baby shower is different, there are three parts to a shower that remain consistent– the serving of food and drinks, baby shower games and the giving of baby-related gifts to the Mum-to-be.

Baby showers can range from holding a small get together at someone’s home for a handful of the mum-to-be’s closest friends to a lavish event for 50 + at a restaurant. Anything goes these days. It’s all about what works best for the mum-to-be and the hostess
