Some baby showers are brunch in the backyard. This one is champagne glasses (or sparkling cider), a string quartet playlist and the good china. The invitation sets that tone before anyone arrives: gold Art Deco fans, a pearl-studded frame and soft cream marble, like the lobby of an old grand hotel.
It feels like raising a glass to the baby, which makes it a lovely fit for an evening shower, a couples’ shower or a tea at a nice restaurant. It works for any gender, and it photographs beautifully if the host wants a matching table: white flowers, gold candlesticks and a tower of macarons.
Fill in the mom’s name, the date and the place. The layout keeps every line large and easy to read on a phone, so older relatives will not need their glasses to find the address.
