How to decorate a baby shower? ›

Consider decorations like table décor, wall art, and interactive photo op decorations, such as a DIY photo booth with handmade props. And, be sure to consider custom cake toppers and coordinating tablecloths and party supplies. Personalize your baby shower to reflect the mom-to-be and her favorite things.

Some easy ways to trim the cost of having a baby shower include: hosting the shower in your home or backyard, heading to your local warehouse club (for food, flowers, and even the cake), using free printables for decor and games, and giving homemade sweets as favors.

The hostess traditionally pays for the baby shower and its associated costs. However, the hostess can divide up the responsibility and costs by asking a few close family members or friends to co-host. This helps to reduce the overall expense and alleviates some of the financial obligation of hosting a baby shower.

We'll break it down by relationship: For coworkers or acquaintances, people tend to spend around $30 to $50. For friends or distant relatives, many people spend between $50 and $100. For close friends or family members, most people spend between $100 and $200 or more.

A baby sprinkle is a casual and smaller-scale version of a baby shower. It is typically held for parents who are expecting their second, third, or subsequent child. The term "sprinkle" is a play on words, as it suggests a lighter celebration compared to the more elaborate and traditional baby showers.

With all that said, we'd recommend that a baby shower last 2-4 hours, be held on a weekday night in the rough 6-10 pm window, or even better on a weekend day in a 10 am - 2 pm or 1 pm - 5 pm type of window.

Decide who should be at the baby shower

This might require some detective work, or it could be a super simple exercise assuming the shower isn't a surprise. Traditionally, baby showers are intimate events, with the average number of attendees being about 20 and definitely fewer than 50.

Unless otherwise specified by the host, you can absolutely wear white to a baby shower. In fact, light and bright colours are generally preferred. Neutrals, vibrant hues, and pastel shades are perfect for baby showers.
