The invitation is the first glimpse guests get of your baby shower, and it sets the mood for the whole celebration. This collection focuses only on invitations: classic baby showers, smaller baby sprinkles for second or third babies, and elegant gender reveal invitations.
Editable Baby Shower Invitations
Expect soft, neutral palettes and natural details: pampas grass, botanical leaves, wildflowers, garden florals, a celestial sun, moon and stars design, storybook illustrations, teddy bears and modern minimalist layouts. For a more feminine look there are floral and coquette bow designs in pink.
Shower, sprinkle or reveal?
A classic baby shower invitation suits a first baby or a larger party. Baby sprinkle invitations are made for smaller gatherings, often for a second or third child, and several carry wording such as Our Nest Grows Again or A Sweet New Chapter Has Begun. The gender reveal invitations, in elegant minimal or cream and gold, are ideal if you are planning a reveal moment separately. Because every word is editable, you can also adjust any of these designs for a co-ed shower, a long-distance celebration or a joint party for two expecting friends.

What to include
A clear baby shower invitation usually lists "baby shower for" with the parent-to-be's name, the host, date and time, location, RSVP name and deadline, and any registry information. If it is a co-ed shower or a surprise, say so. Many hosts send invitations four to six weeks before the shower, which gives out-of-town guests time to plan. When printing, a matte cardstock suits these soft neutrals; our guide to the best paper for printing party invitations explains the options.
