| 10 Essential Things to Include in Your Baby Shower Invitation Wording |
A wonderful baby shower invitation includes great wording. When wording your invitations, be sure to include the following:
- Name of New Mother (include father’s name if a co-ed shower)
- Baby's Name and/or Gender
- Date of the Baby Shower
- Time of the Event
- Location and Address of Shower. Include a map in your invitation if many guests are not familiar with the shower's venue.
- Name of the hostess with contact information for quests to R.S.V.P. to. Request an RSVP by a date approximately 2 weeks prior to the baby shower.
- If the mother is subscribed to a gift registry, mention this in the invitation. These days, it’s acceptable to state this in the invitation. If you feel uncomfortable doing so, just inform guests when they call up to RSVP.
- Is the baby shower a surprise for mommy-to-be? If so, mention the fact in the invitation. Or in a separate note that goes along with the invite. Else someone might call her up and really 'surprise' her prematurely!
- Special requirements, if any, should be included in shower invite wordings. For instance, dress codes to fit a shower theme, advance preparations needed for a game, etc.
- A little poem or verse can be nice at the beginning of the card. Visit Ginger Snaps Baby’s selection of verses for ideas.
