Once you have a general idea of the number of guests, and a date or dates in mind, start compiling venue options. Traditionally, baby showers have taken place in the home of the hostess. However, it’s also good to broaden your scope. Consider a restaurant, a park picnic, a reception hall, or even a day at the spa with a catered lunch! Pick a location that reflects the personality of the mother to be and that can accommodate your entire guest list (or that is intimate and cozy if you have a small guest list!).
