How to create invitations for baby showers

It is quite easy to create invitations for baby showers. Just keep a few simple guidelines in mind about what to include. These are outlined below. Perhaps the best option is to create invitations entirely by hand - that'll give you truly original ones for your baby showers. Alternatively, it is quite straightforward to get customized invites that do the job very well.

There are services available that allow you to do a high degree of customization. You can either print the cards from your computer or have them printed and delivered to you. So let your imagination loose and create invitations for baby showers that everyone will love to receive!

Let's take a quick look at what should go into an invite. That's the starting point for making invitations. Baby shower invites need to cover the following.

When you write invitations, you will obviously include essential information like the name of the expectant mom in whose honor the baby shower is being held, dad-to-be's name and the hostess' name.
Date, time and location of the event. Depending on whether guests know the venue well or not, you might want to include detailed instructions for getting there when you create invitations. Maybe even a map to the baby showers' venue.
Include full info for the RSVP in the invitations - the contact person's name, her phone number / email address and best time to call. Request guests to RSVP about two weeks before the baby showers.
It is a good idea to let guests know via the invitation, if the baby shower is planned as a surprise. Otherwise, someone might call up the expectant mother and 'surprise' her unintentionally before the event!
Include gift registry information when creating invitations. Of course, you can also choose to tell guests about the registry when they call to RSVP before the baby showers.
Is there anything special the guests need to do beforehand? Like some action to be taken for a game? Or maybe there's a dress code to tie in with the party theme. In all such cases, create invitations for baby showers that include the relevant information.
Do specify who exactly is being called when you create invitations. Is it only the addressee, or does it include her spouse (if it's a co-ed baby shower)?
