What should baby shower wording for invitations convey? Well, it can be many different things, but first and foremost, they should get across the true spirit of these lovely events. These celebrations are all about the innocence of babies. And that's what baby shower wording for invitations should express most of all. The very best option is for the hostess to develop handmade invites, along with the expectant mother.

You need to have a clear notion of what information to put into them. That will form the basis for developing your own baby shower wording for invitations. Go through the list below - it will give you the key points you need to cover. Of course, not all invites will cover all of these points. Neither are these in any particular order. So do adapt them to suit your needs.

Here is what's normally included in baby shower wording for invitations.

Names of the expectant parents

Date and time of the baby shower

Complete street address, including detailed directions if many guests are not too familiar with the location. Maybe even a simple map

Include information about the gift registry, if any

RSVP details - phone numbers / email address

Date by which RSVP is requested

Who is being invited. Is it only the person to whom you're addressing the invitation, or does it include their spouse, kids, etc

Any special dress requirements
