If the baby shower party is in a restaurant, you will still need to buy baby shower decorations and supplies like balloons, streamers and other baby shower decorations. However, the restaurant might restrict the baby shower decorations you can use in the restaurant. If you're hosting the baby shower somewhere other than a restaurant, you will need to buy plates, napkins, cups, eating utensils and other baby shower party supplies. Make sure you have enough napkins and forks for appetizers and cake as well as making sure you have cups for both hot and cold liquids.

It is customary to serve food and beverages at a baby shower party, (Baby Shower Announcements). In the past, baby showers were at high tea hour (afternoon) when women with their umbrellas would sit around on a warm day and get together for tea and light snacks. Today, for food, nearly anything goes, from finger foods, candy on tables, appetizers, to complete meals at restaurants. Tea has been replaced with cold beverages, wine, coffee and other drinks. However, the one “must” is to have a baby shower cake for the Mommy-to-Be. The menu for baby showers should be based on: (a) what the Mommy-to-Be wants; (b) budget; (c) length of the baby shower; (d) location of the baby shower; (e) number of guests attending; (f) time of the baby shower and (g) the season.

There are many options for the baby showers menu, ranging from appetizers to a full meal. If the baby shower is at a restaurant, you will need to coordinate the menu with the restaurant. Most restaurants provide food set up as a buffet or a sit down setting. The restaurant will help you match the menu to your baby shower theme and the personalized baby shower invitations theme.

For baby showers at home, you can make your own food, cater or a combination of the two. If you are having the baby shower catered, ask the caterer to send you a menu to review. Again, you will have the option of setting up a buffet or cooking a sit down menu. Just leave room for cake.

Sending personalized baby shower invitations are a great way to set the tone for your baby shower, and they also provide a reminder for the guests to put on their bulletin boards.
