The invites will be sent out this month with a due date and party favors will be ordered. From May to June, the baby shower games will be organized, along with the purchasing of raffle baskets for the guests. Music for the event will also be chosen in this month. From June to July, party favors will be picked up and the guest list will be finalized. Once the guest list is finalized, the seating chart and brunch menu will also be finalized. In the last month leading up to the event, extra décor will be purchased, the bathroom toiletry baskets will be created, all the event vendors will be confirmed and the family will travel to West Palm Beach!
  8. The day of the event will be very busy for everyone! The event itself is 3 hours long. In the morning up to 10:45am, (event begins at 11) all the vendors will come and set up and the event space will be decorated by Ta Da events. Everything will be triple checked to make sure it is in order, prior to guests arrival. From 11-11:30am there will be guests mingling, along with a formal introduction to the event. At 11:30am, the buffet will be opened to guests. At 12pm, Bella Queen will walk around taking pictures with guests and baby shower games will be lead by Bella’s mom. At 12:45pm, a break will be taken and the cake will be cut and served. From 1:20-1:50, there will be more games played until a closing at 2:00pm by Bella Queen. After this, the favors will be handed out and guests will retreat. From 2:30 to 3:30pm, the venue staff will clean up the event.
  9. Although a baby shower is not an event that can be done virtually, there are various ways to incorporate technology! With the use of Instagram and Facebook, family and friends will be kept up to date with the event and what is going on. An Instagram page @HereComesThePrincess will be created so guests can follow and keep up with Bella Queen in the dates leading up to the baby shower. The hashtags #HereComesThePrincess and #BellaQueenShower will be used so guests can share their pictures, while at the event. A Facebook page will also be created to invite guests and to share pictures that people without an Instagram can also look at.
