Creating and throwing unusual baby showers is a great way to bring together family and friends around the birth of a new family member. Baby showers have been a traditional event for decades and sometimes the whole event is also so traditional that they become staid and boring. But, with the props and party ideas that are available today unusual baby showers can be fun and exciting bringing the party back to baby shower.
When you are planning a cool and unusual baby shower you have a couple of decisions to make initially. First is this a couple shower or just for women? Second is this for friends and family or one or the other? And third where will it be held and how much time and energy do you have to invest?
Be honest about that last question. There is nothing worse than planning a great event and running out of steam at the last minute. You’ll end up resenting the party and your friend when your initial intentions were to do something nice and memorable. Even if you don’t have much time or energy you may have the resources to outsource much of the work.
For instance, you may be great at the idea end and then pull together a team of people to whom you can delegate some of the tasks. If you don’t want to do the ideas or the work consider a party planner who can take over and pull together a party to remember.
Some of the more popular baby showers are held with couples and families children and pets! Others are bit more elegant almost black tie with just couples. And still others are friendly women affairs that end in giggles, laughter and not-so-couth after birth jokes.
Baby showers are often centered around a pink/blue or yellow baby theme but an unusual baby shower could be themed in black, white and gold with participants asked to dress in evening wear while the event is catered by black-tie waiters.
A more traditional unusual baby shower sports decorations with rolled diapers in large ice cream sundae glasses or large diaper cakes filled with baby goodies for mom. Unusual baby showers don’t have to be centered around baby at all but instead a time to celebrate the new mother with gifts especially for her. What a surprise to the new mom when she receives gifts like perfume, night gowns, and gift certificates for after birth clothing or a spa day with a promise for babysitting.
Unusual baby showers start with the invitation. The invitation sets the mood for the party. Are you sending Winnie The Pooh, a tropical theme or black tie event invitations? Are they written in calligraphy, hand addressed or printed? All of these details go into making an unusual baby shower that mom, friends and family will remember for months to come.
