They\u2019re meant to celebrate pure joy and assist in setting up new parents for success as they embark on an unfamiliar stage of life. It\u2019s a chance to get loved ones together to \u201cshower\u201d the parents-to-be with thoughtful and practical gifts that will welcome a brand-new person into the world. By design, the guest list includes family members and close friends; there are fewer \u201chave to\u201d invitations than with any other kind of party. Egos and personalities usually fall by the wayside and expectations of perfection simply don\u2019t have a place to rest. With all things considered \u2014 when to plan a baby shower? Following are some planning tips to make sure your baby shower is a success.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Determine a date and time for the baby shower<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First and foremost, if the mother-to-be is the one you are showering, keep her health and comfort at the top of your list! The second trimester is a fun time to be pregnant: if nothing else, she usually has an appetite and level of energy that may be lacking in the beginning and end of a pregnancy. Once the third trimester hits, she\u2019s going to be tired and uncomfortable most of the time, with increasing frequency, until the baby is born. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that in mind, six to eight weeks prior to the baby\u2019s birth is ideal for when to plan a baby shower. And make sure you&#8217;re planning to throw the party far enough from the baby\u2019s due date to allow the parents time to unpack and put away the gifts! Those dozens of onesies and hundreds of tiny socks don\u2019t fold themselves. Even better: after the baby shower, extend an offer to help, whether with a screwdriver or by saving them a trip and making returns of gifts that weren\u2019t quite right.  <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Begin Peerspace Banner -->\n<div class=\"banner\">\n  <div class=\"banner-text\">\n\n    \n    <h2>Book the perfect baby shower venue.<\/h2>\n\n    \n    \n    <p>\n      Peerspace is the easiest way to book the perfect baby shower space.

Choose a venue for the event<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re deciding on the best time to host a baby shower, it\u2019s worth thinking about the setting, too. A cozy winter shower might call for a warm indoor spot, while a spring or summer date opens the door to gardens, patios, and other outdoor spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some hosts look for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/airbnb-baby-showers\/\">Airbnb-style baby shower<\/a> venue to match their ideal timing and atmosphere \u2014 whether that\u2019s a bright, airy loft for a daytime brunch or a backyard space perfect for an evening celebration. Aligning the season, schedule, and location helps ensure your shower feels seamless and perfectly timed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Consider guests&#8217; travel arrangements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most considerate (and, really, the only acceptable) thing to do is work around the parent-to-be and their travel preferences. If they\u2019re in Arizona and their family is in North Carolina, it\u2019s up to the honoree to decide when they\u2019d like to travel. Also, find out whether the family anticipates traveling closer to the expected due date. Then, think about who is on the guest list \u2014 family, friends, or coworkers \u2014 and where they are geographically located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve done that, you\u2019ll be able to work through the most reasonable way to accommodate their needs. In many cases it\u2019s perfectly appropriate to have a friend-only (or coworker-only) baby shower, allowing the family to have a private celebration of their own, if they choose. In the end, identifying those VIPs when planning a baby shower will set up your party \u2014 and your guest list \u2014 for success.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- Begin Peerspace Banner -->\n<div class=\"banner\">\n  <div class=\"banner-text\">\n\n    \n    <h2>Book the perfect baby shower venue.<\/h2>\n\n    \n    \n    <p>\n      Peerspace is the easiest way to book the perfect baby shower space.

Create a rough schedule detailing day-of activities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While planning silly games, a themed menu (mini candy bars and sparking blue drinks, anyone?), and brightly colored decorations, keep in mind guests are only going to be entertained by opening gifts and diaper-changing games for so long. When all is said and done, two and three hours is more than long enough for a baby shower. Some sort of game is absolutely required at the event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully you\u2019ve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/plan\/baby-shower\">selected a venue<\/a> that encourages a lighthearted sense of humor; guests will arrive during a reasonable time of day and, having not had to travel an unreasonable distance, they\u2019ll be excited to join the fun! Choose the style of game that the future parents are most likely to find entertaining. Be mindful of comments about controversial subjects (e.g. politics, religion, etc.) and jokes to avoid offending anyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Send out the invitations to guests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Include the gift registry on the invitation, and send them far enough in advance of the baby shower to allow potential guests a chance to have gifts shipped. It\u2019s nice to think that they will be able to find everything on the registry at their local store, but we all know that\u2019s not always the case. Also, for guests who choose to stray from the registry (which we strongly recommend they <em>do not<\/em> do), at least the registry will give them an opportunity to gain some sort of idea of color and style preferences. We can\u2019t have someone gift a monkey-themed quilt for an under-the-sea-themed nursery, can we?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The best time is the one that works for you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the day, there isn\u2019t a single \u201cperfect\u201d answer to when you should plan a baby shower. Some families host early to ensure the parent-to-be is comfortable, while others wait until closer to the due date to heighten the excitement. What matters most is choosing a time that feels right for you, your loved ones, and the kind of celebration you want to create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you decide to gather, your baby shower will be a joyful moment that marks the beginning of an incredible new chapter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baby showers are great fun to plan and even better to attend!
