Baby Shower Appetizers
Planning the Perfect Baby Shower Is Easy!
If you were picked to throw a baby shower, create a checklist of everything you need to do, such as:
1. Decide who will be covering the expenses to throw the shower and what your budget will be. Will it be your expense entirely, will a family member be picking up the tab, or will there be a co-host to help with the costs? Plan accordingly.
2. Pick a shower time and date about 1 – 2 months before mom’s due date.
3. Create the guest list.
4. Pick a location that will accommodate the number of guests you are inviting. Will it be in somebody’s home, in a hall, in a restaurant, fellowship area of a church? Will you need extra tables and chairs to accommodate the number of guests you have?
5. Gather information together on baby registries the mother-to-be has registered with so that you can include this information in the invitations. Encourage mom to include large items like cribs, car seats, and playpens for family or groups who may want to go in together and buy a significant gift as well as including smaller gifts like clothing, baby gift baskets, bedding, and bath items.
6. Will there be a theme? If yes, decide what it will be.
7. Plan the menu. Will you serve a full meal or appetizers? Will it be catered or will family and friends make and bring the food to serve?
8. Will there be games? Baby shower games are generally considered optional.
9. Send out invitations at least two weeks before the shower date (include registry information, a map/directions to the location, and RSVP information).
10. Plan and buy or make the baby shower favors for guests.
11. Order the cake.
12. Pick up decorations and plan to spend some time decorating your intended location the day of or the day before.
13. One week before the baby shower, confirm you final guest count. Make any phone calls you need to for those who did not RSVP.
14. If your baby shower needs to follow a schedule, write a timeline prior to the date so you stay on time and organized.
15. Ensure somebody is preserving the baby shower memories with cameras and videos for the mother-to-be.
16. Have somebody keep track, in writing, of gifts that the mother-to-be opens and who it is from for thank you cards. Have garbage bags nearby for discarded wrapping paper.
17. Relax. Enjoy the day with family and friends.
There is a lot that goes into planning the perfect baby shower, but if you stay organized, you can pull it off!

Hosting a baby shower and have question on how much food to serve?
Hi there!
I am not sure how many people will be attending the shower yet, but somewhere between 10-18. I rarely host anything at my home, so I have no idea how much food to serve.
Is there a formula of some sort? Something like 1 dish or appetizer per person I should follow?
I will be starting the baby shower at 1 pm. I was thinking of 1 pasta salad, 1 green salad and some appetizers as well. For drink they can choose between punch and water with cucumbers in it. Any ideas or suggestions are very much welcomed!
Thanks,
After hosting several (over 10) baby and bridal showers, you are better off keeping it simple. You can make any kind of foods but finger foods will go over really well. Spinach dip in a round hallowed out bread bowl and a few baguettes sliced thin and surrounding the round bread bowl goes over really well. Serve some potato chips next to it too. You can get frozen pre made meatballs, buy a honey garlic sauce (Safeway & or Fry’s carries Safeway select brand – awesome) and put the meatballs and sauce in the crockpot to warm – those are awesome and go over great. you can serve a veggie tray with ranch dip too. lastly I would buy some mini croissants and mini rolls and have a small meat and cheese platter out with some mayo and mustard (you could get real fancy and put the condiments in halved bell peppers to look famcy if you want) remember to add a small bell pepper with black olives and some pickles. There your food is done and guaranteed they will eat it – and you can always eat what is left over. Guaranteed easy and successful. Good luck!
