Plan a Baby Shower

Choosing Food and Drinks

The food and drink you choose depends partly on the time of day and partly on the length of the baby shower. For a 2-3 hour baby shower, appetizers and bakery items will suffice. You can get great meat and cheese trays or fruit trays from your local grocery store. They are also easy to make.

For a longer shower you may want to have more substantial food in addition to the appetizers. You can organize a potluck if you don't want to cook a meal especially if you have a large guest list. Whether to choose alcoholic drinks at your party depends on the guests and is usually more appropriate at a baby shower scheduled for later in the day or evening.
