Baby Shower Etiquette
Years ago, it was baby shower etiquette that baby showers were never hosted by a family member. This practice was thought by most people to be tacky, appearing as if the family was asking for gifts.
Thankfully, that tradition has changed where now it is acceptable for family members, friends, or co-workers to host the shower. The only exception to this rule is that the parents should not throw their own shower since this is considered inappropriate. As the baby shower is designed around the concept of a gathering of friends to show their support for the mother to be. So throwing a baby shower for yourself would be a very sad state of affairs and considered bad etiquette.
Baby Shower Quick Tip Once the invitations have been sent it will only be matter of days before you start receiving calls about gifts for the mother to be. Make sure before you send out any baby shower invitations that you are aware of any gift registries that the mother-to-be may have arranged. That way you can direct any calls you receive about the baby shower gift to the gift registry. This will make the baby shower look well organized. |
Regardless of who ends up hosting the baby shower, it is important that they spend time with the expectant parents to determine the individual they would like to invite and the types of gifts needed most. Additionally, it is highly recommended that the soon-to-be parents register the gifts at their favorite stores. With this information, the host can make sure invitees know where to shop and can provide recommendations if needed.
You can also list things such as gifts, special food requests,theme and just about anything you like on the invitations as this is you first line of communication with your guests. None of this is considered bad etiquette.
