Tips To Baby Shower Wording For That Special Touch

A baby shower word­ing for the invi­ta­tions takes as much care­ful plan­ning as the invi­ta­tions itself. No mat­ter what the theme of the baby shower is or even if there is no theme, the baby show­ers word­ing requires some imag­i­na­tion and the appro­pri­ate words to invite people.

An imag­i­na­tively designed baby shower card does attract atten­tion but if the word­ing for baby shower within it is care­lessly put together, all the design­ing efforts will be in vain. Worse, if the word­ing is not proper or full of care­less mis­takes, half the peo­ple prob­a­bly might not turn up in con­fu­sion. So, it’s very impor­tant to have the cor­rect word­ing for baby shower invi­ta­tions.  Baby shower invi­ta­tion word­ing ideas can be cat­e­go­rized as follows:

If the baby shower is going to be a for­mal affair, the words of the invi­ta­tion should reflect that tone. A casu­ally worded invi­ta­tion will be mis­lead­ing for such for­mal events and the guest might find them­selves in an awk­ward posi­tion at the party.

The usual way to begin the invi­ta­tion for a for­mal shower is with a phrase like; “You are cor­dially invited for a baby shower” or “Your pres­ence is requested at a shower” fol­lowed with the name of the per­son whose shower it is; the mother or parents-to-be or the new baby.

In for­mal invi­ta­tions the full name of the guests are nor­mally writ­ten out fol­lowed by the details of the shower such as the loca­tion, time and date. Every word should be writ­ten out fully and not in abbre­vi­ated form. The full name of the hosts is writ­ten at the end and a RSVP added at the bot­tom of the card.

For an infor­mal party, even though invi­ta­tions need not be for­mal, an ultra-casual approach like sim­ply e-mailing or call­ing up peo­ple will also not do. For such baby shower invi­ta­tions word­ing, one can take a mixed approach of writ­ing out the invi­ta­tion in a slightly more casual manner.

For instance, an infor­mal baby shower invi­ta­tion word­ing can read some­thing like “John and Fiona invite you to cel­e­brate the com­ing of a new baby for Shaun and Marla at a baby shower” fol­lowed by the sundry details of the party.

Gen­der spe­cific baby show­ers call for more care­ful phras­ing as it should reflect the gen­der of the baby prop­erly.  A girl baby shower invi­ta­tion word­ing could read as “Ten lit­tle fin­gers and ten lit­tle toes; this time it’s a lit­tle girl, made to use rib­bons and bows!” And of course, the baby shower thank you word­ing from the par­ents for whom the shower has been hosted also has to be kept sin­cere and warm. A baby shower word­ing cer­tainly should come from the heart irre­spec­tive of every­thing else.
