Baby Shower Invitations for Formal Events

With a formal shower, you're going to want to take care to reflect that tone in your choice of BabyShower Words. A good way to start these formal baby invitations is with a phrase such as "You are cordially invited to a baby shower" or "The pleasure of your company is requested at a shower." Follow that line with who the shower is going to be for: the new baby if he or she has already entered the world, the parents-to-be, or the mother-to-be.  When you are writing out the wording, be sure to use everyone's full name - that is standard when you are working with formal invitations. Once you reach this point of the wording, you should add in the details of the party, such as the location, date, and time of the baby showers. You also need to have all of the words written out completely. For example, if the shower is being held on the August 30th at noon, you would write it out as "the thirtieth of August at twelve o'clock noon." Remember not to use any types of abbreviations.

After you have completed the details, remember to list the names of all the people who are hosting the event. You should use full names here as well. Make sure to either include the RSVP information at the bottom or include a separate response card that guests can mail back.

Informal Baby Shower Invitation

Formal invitations aren't needed if you are having a small, casual shower. However, that doesn't mean you can just call or email guests. You should still send out invitations and you will need to be careful with your baby shower wording. However, you do have more flexibility with what those cards can say. For example, you could begin the message with "Susan and Jeff invite you to celebrate the approaching birth of Morgan and Matt's new baby at a special shower." Of course, you'd follow this up with celebration details.

Don't forget that if you send out informal shower invitations you need to plan a casual shower. That means you keep the refreshments simple, the guest list smaller, and the location more private. Just remember that the shower will be a fun experience whether it's formal or informal.

Gifts & the Baby Showers Wording

Remember that with any type of invites, you don't want to mention anything about gifts. When you include this type of information in your invite, you make guests feel obligated to bring gifts to the shower and that's not something you want to do. Instead registry information should be left out of the baby shower wordings, verses and sayings and should instead be discussed one on one when requested by guests.
