Baby Shower or Baby Shower Tea? Baby showers are always an important event in a soon to be mommy's life. A shower is a wonderful way to allow your family and friends of the mom-to-be to display her how much they love her. A new option to the classic baby shower is a baby shower tea. A baby shower tea is a much more formal affair that offers the mother and attendees a unique way to have fun. In more classic baby showers, the invites can be pretty informal. Occasionally they are communicated through word of mouth or e-mail. Showers most often involve intimate friends and family, and they can simply tell one another the time and place. With a baby shower tea, however, is far better served by giving out proper announcements that show more formality. The goal isn't to make the baby shower tea feel pretentious, rather helping to establish a more formal atmosphere to the overall occasion. Also, the group of people invited ought to be smaller. When holding a traditional baby shower a hostess usually will ask a larger number of people since large groups tend to work perfectly with the basic baby shower games and activities. A baby shower tea, on the other hand is usually better served with a smaller guest list. Typically, you do not want any more guests attending a baby shower tea than can be seated at one small table together. Games are not typically played, and intimacy is the goal. A more conventional baby shower can be held essentially anywhere. In general the baby shower is held at your home of the hostess, although they sometimes take place in a simple hang-out-spot, hall, or a restaurant. The locale really should be dependent on what the mother would most like, so if she has a favorite hang out or restaurant that might be the great spot. Baby shower teas, on the other hand, need to be held in a more formal, quiet location. Usually they are held in a private home, however it may just as well be in a tea room. The decoration for the location should be formal and elegant, however that doesn't necessarily mean it should be overly extravagant or that a home needs a maid to be appropriate. You can hold baby showers at pretty much any time during the day but are generally held in the evening or on the weekend because most people work during the daytime. Perhaps if none of the guests are working during the day, baby showers could be held during school hours. Baby shower teas are most suited for the afternoon, because the afternoon is the most ideal time for tea. However, some may choose to hold the shower later in the morning. During a baby shower, essentially any cuisine could be served, but at a baby shower tea, only tea sandwiches and scones are appropriate. Gifts and shower favors are usually a very big part of a standard baby shower, but at baby shower teas, gifts don't need to be given and favors ought to either be excluded or relevant to the tea party. it's rather common nowdays for some baby showers to include the the expectant daddy and sometimes the guests give gifts for the expectant dad, but at a baby shower tea women should be the only company. Both types of celebrations have pros and cons, but a expectant mother can have them both if she chooses. Celebrating the birth of a baby can be a delightful affair. Whether you gather friends for a baby shower party or a formal baby shower tea, you can't go awry when you just make it personal, special and unique! -------------------------------- Looking for some help in arranging a shower party?
