Hosting a Themed Baby Shower: Tea Party


The Celebrations team knows that it’s important to celebrate a mother’s up-coming birth of her child. While it may be difficult to come up with memorable baby shower ideas, we have the tips and advice you need to create a perfect day: everything including the cake, decorations, guest list, paper invitations and more.

Celebrate the mom-to-be with an elegant Baby Shower Tea Party to make a memorable celebration perfect for any expecting mother.

Baby Shower Tea Invitations

Make your guests set the date in style by sending a formal invitation through the mail.

Invitation Tips

  • List both a phone number and email address for RSVP ease.
  • Insert a card of line on the invitation telling guests where the mother is registered for gifts.
  • If money or a donation is preferred, do not list a gift registry location.


Decorations in White

  • Adorn the tables in shades of white.
  • Drape tables in rental fabrics such as a cream embroidered silk over white tablecloths.
  • Create a perfectly styled table by using two china patterns in white tones.
  • Use short white flowers arrangements so guests can chat across the table.


Tea Time Favors and Activities

There are little things that make a party memorable. Stay with our tea theme for great favors and activities.

  • Hire a tea leaf reader for fortune-telling.
  • Create a favor pack in a teacup wrapped up with designer sugar cubes, a mesh ball tea infuser and a small decorative teaspoon.


Designer Tea for the Mom-to Be

Many women avoid caffeine during pregnancy. Luckily, we have a great selection of decaffeinated teas for the lucky mother:

  • Rooibos
  • Herbal Tea


Afternoon Tea Menu

Typically, begin with a first course of finger sandwiches and scones followed by petit fours and sweets.

For a party at home where the host is preparing menu items, serve all of the food at the same time so that everyone can eat together.
