Truly Memorable Days

Baby Shower Planning Services PDF Print E-mail
Congratulations, you’re having a baby! As you get closer to the end of your pregnancy there will be mixed emotions. A traditional baby shower is a way of celebrating your pregnancy and passing on your experiences with family and friends. Mark this significant time in your life and enjoy the experience of a well organized baby shower that you will remember for years ahead.

Who usually organizes a baby shower? Well, it’s traditionally close friends, sisters, sisters-in-law, aunts, work colleagues, cousins or mothers-in-law. Whoever the host is she has the very rewarding job of making Mum-to-be feel very special. Some Mums-to-be may wish to organize their own Baby Shower Party or work together with the host to put on the event they want.  As a host you may decide to delegate parts of the planning to others. Rather than take it all on by yourself.

What’s the best date a time to have a baby shower? You should plan Baby Shower far enough into the pregnancy so it’s settled and early enough should the baby decide to make an early appearance! Typically 2-3 months before the baby is due (or shortly afterwards). Baby Shower Parties usually last for around 2-3 hours. Although this can depend on location and number of guests and entertainers.

Most women tend to host the baby shower at home but depending on capacity, costs, available dates, times and convenience for your guests you could also consider tea rooms, restaurants, village halls, health spas, marquees, and day trips.

Wherever you decide we at Truly Memorable would love to assist you and we have compiled a number of planning packages to ensure your Baby Shower is indeed truly memorable. If you have decided to plan your Baby Shower on your own then browse our Baby Shower Shop area. You will find gifts, games, and many party accessories to complement your day.   

Truly Memorable can offer you the perfect Baby Shower event and will work with you to ensure the success of your day. As qualified registrars and celebrants with firsthand experience of conducting ceremonies and planning events, we can guide you through this experience and give you a tailor-made party.  Each Baby Shower is created together with the host and your ideas are turned into reality.

Venue Selection Service

This service gives you 5 recommended venues to choose from and is based on the information given on your online form and on communication between us. Once we have sourced the venues for you we will send you contact details, internet links with photos, and a written report (with brochure if available). We will also provide you a guide price with menus, wine lists, capacity, and children’s facilities availability for your chosen date(s).
                
Supply and Search Service

This package is aimed at organizers that want to do most of the arranging themselves and have already decided on a venue. It can be difficult to know which suppliers are reliable and you may want an independent overview of the quality of services you will get. We will give you the contact details of at least 3 reliable and recommended services in each of Catering, Entertainment, Floral Arrangements, and Venue Dressing.

This package is not limited to the four specific areas mentioned above and if you would like a recommendation in a different service area please let us know.

For our hosts that really do want to take a step back and let someone else take on the responsibility for planning and co-ordinating the day from start to finish we have put together a few packages that cover a wider range of services guaranteed to make your day a success.
