Wanting a plan an unforgettable baby shower? I love hosting parties and baby showers do not have to be expensive to host. You can host it at your own home or ask a family member or friend to use their space. Not paying for a venue can eliminate the main costs, stress,and help the planning a lot.
Wanting to find a place to host other than your own home? Does your neighborhood have a public park, community center, library, or meeting rooms for rent? Some apartments I lived in had complimentary spaces to use for get-togethers.
Etsy has everything you need when planning a baby showers; besides the venue. Etsy has invitations, party favors, gifts, linen, supplies, decorations and so much more.

GUEST LIST + OBTAIN APPROXIMATE GUEST COUNT
Go ahead and try to get an estimate on the number of guests that will be invited to the baby shower. This helps you when venues, bakeries and so on need to give you price quote for planning.

FOOD AND DRINKS
If you are on a tight budget have the guests bring a dish to share at the baby shower. You could also opt to do breakfast food and not have the shower close to dinner time. Perhaps a friend can bake a cake to help cut costs as well. Tableware and server ware.
