There are lots of elegant and intimate baby shower venues to choose from in Michigan—so how do you find the one that’s best for your parents-to-be? Check out this guide to finding the best baby shower venue near you, and what to look for.
What to Look for in a Baby Shower Venue
Availability
No matter how many people you’re planning to invite to your baby shower, whether it’s 12 or 112, it’s important to check with the venue you want to make sure they have availability for the number of people you’re inviting. For example, at RedWater Events, many of our event spaces can fit at least 50 people, but some can accommodate hundreds—even with multiple large options in the same venues. Consulting your venue can help you determine the type of shower you can throw, plus the number of guests you can invite. Depending on when the baby is expected to arrive, it’s usually ideal to find a venue that’s close to where the parents live—ideally within easy driving distance. You’ll also want to carefully time when you book the venue, at least a few months in advance of the baby’s due date. This is ideal because babies often arrive on their own schedules. Otherwise, if the baby arrives particularly early, you may want to time the shower for a few months after the baby is born so the parents have had time to settle in with the little one.Aesthetic

- Bubble bath, complete with rubber ducks
- Travel, with old maps and travel posters to illustrate the adventures that await
- Chefs and restaurants
- Farm animals

Amenities
There are a lot of individual amenities you’ll need to help the baby shower you’re planning run smoothly. In no particular order, these include:- Food and drinks
- Serving equipment
- Plates, drinkware, napkins, and utensils
- Decorations
- Party favors
- Supplies and prizes for party games
