Throwing a baby shower is a great way to celebrate the mom-to-be while helping them prepare for the newest addition to their family. With decorations, food and the venue, the expenses can quickly add up. Luckily, there are many baby shower planning ideas to celebrate the new parents without breaking the bank.
As with any celebration, it’s important to focus on the person or milestone you are celebrating. Here are a few ways to enjoy these special moments without going over budget:
How many people you invite will ultimately depend on the mom-to-be, but less is always more when it comes to a guest list. A small, intimate shower with the mom’s closest family and friends can make the day more memorable and prevent the risk of overwhelming the mom and guests.
Today, you don’t have to use handmade invites. Sending invitations online is a great way to save the environment and money. Many websites offer free invitation templates, or you can make one yourself before sending it to guests.
Easily customizable food and drink bars are a great way to cater to guests while cutting costs. For example, you can set up a taco or mimosa bar with a range of options to ensure everyone enjoys a great meal and drink. Not only are these options cost-effective — they are also fun.
Whether you want to play traditional baby shower games like bingo or create your own, there are plenty of resources online for finding and printing free game templates.
You can make your venue look beautiful while still sticking to your budget by making your own signs, picking flowers or hanging a clothesline with baby-related items such as onesies or bibs..
Since baby showers don’t need a lot of space, you can get a great bargain for a picturesque place with all the amenities you need. For instance, at Colonial Golf & Tennis Club, we have a spectacular outdoor space and an even comfier indoor setting. If you’re having the party during the day, you can always host it outside or inside if it’s later in the evening.
The right venue is one of the biggest considerations when budgeting for baby showers. At Colonial Golf & Tennis Club, we have a beautiful space for your baby shower and delicious in-house catering. Our experienced staff will make sure you have everything you need throughout your special day.
