Baby Showers Budget – Costs & Who Pays?

Dec. 5, 2007 - PRLog -- Usually those hosting the baby shower pay the cost of the baby shower. For this reason, many people elect to have co-host who sponsor the baby showers. The costs of the baby shower party depends on the type of baby shower games and baby shower prizes you plan, whether you are serving a full meal at the party or just hors d'oeuvres, where you will have the baby shower and how elaborate you want to be with baby shower decorations.

Preparing your baby shower budget should be one of the first priorities in your planning process. It will determine the location of the baby shower, baby shower decorations, menu, prizes and more. If you have a relatively small budget, don't worry – there are plenty of options. If you have a small group, your home or someone else's home is a good option. Food and location are usually the largest costs, so if you are able to host the baby shower at a home, you will save a significant portion of your budget that can be reallocated to food, baby shower announcements, http://www.cards-411.com/Baby_Shower_Announcements/browse... baby shower party supplies and so on.
