Baby Showers over the recent year have risen in popularity more as an occasion to enjoy being together with loved ones than rituals and customs to be followed, especially in the Indian society.

A baby shower is typically attended by the expectant Mother’s close friends and family members and any other guests to be invited should ideally be discussed with her, keeping in mind your budget and of course the venue constraints.

So before you end up hosting a combined shower, go over the finer details of who you’d be hosting and the experience to follow.

Ideally for a Co-Ed Baby Shower, the Dad-to-Be’s personality should also be considered and equal attention should be paid to the theme and games factored in.

Appropriate, quirky and different party favors can make the baby shower memorable. Of course, the buy has to suit your budget as well. To ensure you have the favors in place, stick to the theme of the party; for instance, if you have a photography theme, then choose small frames for film roles for party favors, for a musical duo, you’d perhaps explore a musical trinket-cum-keychain or a CD.

Skip the usual malls and retail stores for your party favors and explore places like craft fairs for something that’s unique and exciting, which could also be handmade! One of the most essential aspects of choosing your party favors/return gifts should be that they compliment your guests. If most of the guests invited are moms then look for something that is suitable as a gift for Mothers, thus vary the choice according to your audience.
