Baby Shower Invitation Wording

When planning a baby shower, one of the first tasks as hostess is to get invitations sent out. So what should you include in the invitation and what is the wording for the baby shower invitations?

Before we get to the actual wording of the invitation, let’s go through the items that need to be included.

• Name of the guest of honor
• Whether it will be a surprise
• Theme of the party
• Date and time of the shower
• Location and directions to the baby shower
• Name and address of hostess/host
• Favorite colors of guest of honor
• Where guest of honor has a registry
• Suggested ideas for gifts
• Tell them if a meal is planned, refreshments, appetizers, etc
• Decorating scheme of guest of honor
• How and when to RSVP

Here are some samples of baby shower invitation wording:
