A picture speaks a thousand words, and here's how you can impart beautiful messages through photos during baby showers.
Photo Invitations
Use baby illustrations or baby photos of your guest of honor as the main design for your baby shower invitation. Make sure that everything else still matches the overall design and color theme of your party!
Photo Centerpieces
Choose your best photos from infancy till teenage years. Make a collage then print them on glossy paper. Next, use them to cover vases for your table centerpiece. If you're working on a tight budget, you can also use them to cover plain glass bottles and no one will be the wiser. Your guests will be too busy oohing and aahing over your baby pictures to care!
Guess Who Baby Photos
You'll need to be extra resourceful for this venture, but don't worry, the fun and laughter you'll get will be more than worth your pains. Ask your guests to bring at least one baby photo of themselves then collect them upon arrival before they have the chance of trading photos with other guests.
Later on, you can show selected photos in front and award the guests who can correctly identify the owners of the photos. Make sure you warn your guests against cheating!
Photo Scrapbooks
Another delightful activity for your guests would be making a photo scrapbook. Once again, make sure you ask your guests to bring photos of them as babies, photos of them with the guest of honor, and any other photos that remind them of baby showers. Next, prepare a set of art supplies and materials for each table. You can give one scrapbook paper per table or individual, depending on your budget, time constraint, and preferences.
Give a prize to the best designed scrapbook page and then make sure to collect all scrapbook pages and present it to your guest of honor.
Portrait Souvenirs
Take lots of photos of the baby shower and later on, inform your guests that you'll have them printed and sent as souvenirs. Make sure you have a sample ready so they'll know what they can look forward to. You can allow your guests to choose which photo they'd like you to send to them or you can have an artist use them all to create a photo mosaic.
If you use all these, your guests are sure to find your baby shower a memorable event. And with photos to take home with them, they're unlikely to forget it ever!
