Shower Planning

Do you want to be a successful hostess? Then plan on it!

Proper baby shower planning is essential to your success as a savvy hostess. A simple plan in mind will

alleviate and simplify most hosting issues that people run into.

So, take a moment to read through our guide and you will soon be raising a glass to your success! This

baby shower planning guide has a wealth of information to help you plan a successful baby shower.

I will go over important things to cover and think about, along with budgeting tips to save your bottom

dollar. This guide is a little big for a "quick read" so you can download a copy to read when you have a

moment.

Let's start with the two most important things you will need to keep you on track.

1. Know Your Budget Upfront

This is so-o very important! A predetermined budget will help you keep from over spending on

unnecessary items. Start with a budget in mind before you meet with the mom to be. Ask yourself a few

questions... How big of a baby shower am I planning to host? Around what number of people can I afford

to feed? By answering these questions, you will have an idea of the kind of shower you want to host.

2. Stay cool, calm and collected for the big day by using an organized, detailed checklist.

Keep your mind, and your nerves, at ease with a proper checklist. Not sure of everything that goes into it?

Don't worry; we've already taken care of it. After you read our baby shower planning guide, you can

download our planning checklist to help you stay on top of all the "little" details.

Baby Shower Planning Subjects:

Meeting with the mom-to-be:

The best way to start your baby shower planning is to meet with the mom-to-be to discuss some of the

details. I like to meet with her in person so I can see from her reactions any likes and dislikes she has on

my ideas. Ask her if there are any other showers being held in her honor. This way, you can make sure to

keep the guest list is separate from each other.

The Guest List:

Have the mom to be start this as soon as possible. You will need a list of names, addresses and current

phone numbers. This way you will have everything you need to send out the invitations and make any last

minute calls for your rsvp list.

Let her know of any requirements you have at this time, such as limitations of budget or space. You can

also let her know of any special requests you have (like inviting men).

***If it is a surprise baby shower, call 2 to 3 people who know the mother-to-be well enough to know the

people she would like to come. The 3 types of people to call is a family member, a good friend, and a co-

worker she associates with. This way you are less likely to forget someone.
