Nine or 10 Weeks Before
• Determine who hosts.
• Will it is you alone or will you share duties with a cohost?
• Set a budget.
• Are you paying for it all, or are others contributing?
• Decide where to have the party.
• A restaurant or catering hall? Your home, or that of a friend or family member?
• If you need an outside venue, scout around and book it early.
• Pick a date.
• Consult with the honoree’s mother, sisters, and best friends—especially those who’ll be traveling long distances—to find a time when all can be present. Shoot for a month or two before the due date, or at least a month after the baby comes home.
• Make a guest list.
• Decide whether to invite women only or couples, then e-mail the honoree’s closest family members and friends for a list of people they think should be invited (with phone numbers and mailing addresses—as well as e-mail addresses, if you’ll be sending an Evite). Or, if the shower is not a surprise, consult with the guest of honor.
Six Weeks Before
• Choose a theme, if you’d like.
• It can be traditional (baby-related) or as simple as a garden theme, with baskets of flowers and pots of wheatgrass. Keep in mind the tastes of the expectant mother.
• Send out invitations.
• Provide a map or directions to the location and an RSVP deadline of no later than a week before the date.
• Go shopping.
• Buy decorations and disposable tableware, plus party favors and goody bags (or order them
• Plan the menu.
• A brunch or tea party is traditional; a light dinner works for evening showers. Also consider finger foods, a potluck, or a dessert party. If you have a theme, the foods should reflect it.

A Month Before
• Line up some extra hands.
• Arrange for cooking, serving, or bartending help or entertainment, as needed.
• Order the cake.
• Also, the flowers, rental chairs, etc.
• Help with thank-you notes.
• Print out the invitation list, with complete addresses, to give to the honoree (now, if it’s not a surprise; later, if it is), or buy cards yourself and address them for her.
• Prepare some games.
• Stock up on whatever materials are needed to play, such as pencils.
A Week Before
• Follow up on RSVP stragglers.
• Put together the goody bags.
• And if you have prizes for the games, wrap those.
• Plan to get the gifts home.
• Lay in a store of handled shopping bags, and use discarded wrapping paper to cushion items. If the honoree lives a plane ride away, have labeled shipping boxes and packing materials ready. Related: Oversized or Oddly Shaped Items
• Assign a photographer.
• You’ll want your best shutterbug to take photos or videos.
• Clean up.

• The Day Before
• Do a quick cleaning sweep.
• Give your house the once-over.
