How to Plan a Virtual Baby Shower
You Can Still Have a Baby Shower Even When You're Apart — Here's How
5
Even though you won't be together to decorate or make mimosas with tiny babies in them, there are still things you can do to make the day extra special for the new parent.
You can use a service like Postmates or Grubhub to have a cake, meal, or (nonalcoholic) drinks sent to their house, or, if their number-one pregnancy craving has been ice cream, Jeni's Ice Cream will ship four of their decadent pints anywhere in the U.S.
Most cities also have a service that will set up personalized yard signs or decorations if you want to surprise the guest of honour on the day of the shower.
In the absence of a traditional guest book where friends and family often write well wishes for the new parent, you can instead have guests send you their notes and create a virtual guest book using Google Slides or a printed book through Shutterfly or a similar photo book-printing service.
