What Do Customers Say about Zazzle’s Baby Shower Invitations?

Mary Jane S., ★★★★★

I was looking for an invitation appropriate for a gender neutral baby shower. I wanted the color scheme to be sage green. I found this adorable invitation on Zazzle, and I knew this was the one! My order arrived quickly, and I love how the invitations came out! The paper is of great quality, the invitations look so neat and professional. I'm very happy with my order.

Shanika W., ★★★★★

My sister and I went onto Zazzle to look for an invitation for her baby shower, and we came across this awesome design! We previously purchased her wedding shower, ceremony, and reception invitations through Zazzle, and they were awesome as well! Zazzle products do not disappoint! With this particular invitation, I opted for the rounded edges and deeper color enhancement. However, I am sure it would have turned out just as nice without those add-ons. I would definitely recommend this invitation to celebrate your next bundle of joy! Thank you.

Madelyn M., ★★★★★

This was the most amazing invitation anyone could make. Every person who RSVP'd has commented on how gorgeous they were. Thank you for making my daughter-in-law’s baby shower a dream.

Frequently Asked Questions about Baby Shower Invitations

What should I write on the baby shower invitations?

Include the most important details first, such as the parents' names, the host's name, the date, time, and location, plus RSVP details (by phone, email, or a linked form via a QR code). A QR code can be added with the Zazzle design tool. You can also include additional details such as the baby's gender, registry details (or a “no gifts necessary” line), and any special requests surrounding the theme, dress code, games, and extras to bring.

How far in advance should I send baby shower invitations?

Aim for the guest to receive their invitations 4 to 6 weeks before the baby shower. Therefore, we recommend ordering 6 to 8 weeks before, allowing room for a proof review by you or the mom-to-be. This is based on Standard shipping estimates, but Premium and Express can shorten this time if you’re in a rush. For more accurate delivery estimates, click the date shown directly above the ‘Quantity’ button on any product page.

Can I order one invitation to check the quality first?

Absolutely. Many customers order just 1 invitation. This allows you and the expectant parents to give the all-clear before ordering the full batch. The base cost of 1 baby shower invitation varies, but altering the size, shape, and paper type can change that cost. For example, choosing a base 4.5 x 6.25 in squared, with a Signature Matte paper type, totals a cost of $1.66. If you change the Size to 5 x 7 in (+$0.35), add a Rounded corner style (+$0.20), and choose a Premium Linen paper type (+$0.59), that will bring the total cost of one invitation to $2.45.

How many invitations should I order?

Send just one invitation per household. Take your guest list, then divide it by household, and add 5 to 10 extra invitations for last-minute invites or mistakes. Zazzle offers a 30% discount on 50 invitations, anything above 60 invitations will include a 50% discount, and various promotions throughout the year may offer even more savings.

Who hosts the baby shower, and can the mom-to-be throw her own?

Traditionally, a close friend, sister, aunt, mother, mother-in-law, or godparent hosts the baby shower. Recently, that old etiquette rule has faded away, with some expectant mothers throwing their own shower or weighing in heavily on the planning process.

Should I order printed or digital invitations?

Digital invitations are optimal for a one-time cost, instant access, and easy RSVP management, while printed invitations are more personal, tangible, and offer the guest a physical reminder of the baby shower. Alternatively, order both to have some printed invitations for VIPs, and the digital invitations can be sent to the rest of the guests.

Are envelopes included, and can you address them for me?

Zazzle offers free envelopes for all baby shower invitations. We also offer envelopes with Free Guest Addressing, provided your order contains a matching number of cards. You will receive these pre-addressed envelopes with your invitation delivery, which you can then forward to the guests.

What is my last safe order date?

Work backward from the date you need invitations mailed by, not from the shower itself, and add the delivery estimates. Every product page will give you an estimated delivery when you enter your ZIP code, with various delivery options to choose from. Running short on time? Use Zazzle Events for instant digital invitations, RSVP tracking, reminders, and more.
