Your Guide to Renting Baby Shower Venues in Dallas, TX

A baby shower is a beautiful occasion to gather together, revel in the excitement and shower the mommy-to-be with thoughtful gifts, helping her get ready to welcome her new arrival. If you’re looking for the perfect venue for this special celebration, check out Tagvenue’s selection of premier spaces in Dallas. And if you’re not sure how to pick the right place, read our tips and advice!

Why should I rent a venue for a baby shower?

Although many people opt for hosting baby showers at home (be it the home of the mom, a relative or the hostess), renting a dedicated venue can add that special flavor to the event. Dallas is filled with unique spaces whose atmosphere will make the celebration one to remember.

It’s a convenient solution if you don’t want to waste too much time on planning, organizing and coordinating. For starters, if you book a venue with on-site catering, you don’t have to worry about cooking and serving the food to your guests. All you have to do is pick the menu!

If you choose a space that’s full of character by itself, you can keep the decorations to a minimum, which will save you some time and money. And after the event is over, you don’t have to worry about cleaning up. Sounds good? Then let’s have a look at some of the most popular venue types for a baby shower.

What are the best places to host a baby shower in Dallas?

A classic choice would be to host a dinner party or a brunch at a nice restaurant. But be prepared that it won’t be an easy choice, as Dallas boasts a plethora of great dining spots and new places keep popping up all the time! Many restaurants feature function rooms or private dining rooms that you can enjoy all to yourself. Some eateries will also give you the option of a full buyout.

Cafes are also fantastic spaces for baby showers, especially if you don’t want to serve a full dinner. Tea parties are a popular and elegant way of celebrating the new arrival. Just give your guests a heads up that you’ll only be serving beverages and light refreshments, so that no one ends up starving.

Outdoor baby showers are a good idea as long as you prioritize the comfort of the mom. The space you choose should have appropriate facilities, such as toilets. Bear in mind that spending a few hours in the sun and heat may not be ideal for a pregnant woman. So, if you want to host an outdoor celebration, it’s best to rent a patio or a private garden that’s attached to a restaurant or a cafe. Make sure the venue features a shaded area or, ideally, offers the option of chilling in an air-conditioned room.

What should I consider when booking a baby shower venue?

With so many amazing venues to choose from, how do you find the one? We’ve summed up some of the most important details to consider when planning a baby shower party. After you’ve figured it all out, use Tagvenue’s filters to find a venue that ticks all the boxes!

  • Budget – First of all, draw a budget. You need to know which venues fall within your price range. This will help you narrow your search and find the ideal baby shower location much faster. A substantial portion of your budget will go toward venue rental, but remember to also include the costs of catering and any extra expenses (e.g. decorations, parking fees, etc.).
  • Date – Next, it’s time to pick the date. A lot will depend on the general well-being of the future mom, so be sure to get her input on the preferred date. Although there are no hard and fast rules as to when a baby shower should take place, many moms-to-be choose to have their celebrations in the early to mid-third trimester. 
  • Number of guests – Think about everyone you’d like to invite. Baby showers typically involve close friends and relatives, but it’s always best to consult the guest list with the mommy-to-be. Once you have the list, send out the invitations and ask people to RSVP. Knowing how many guests to expect is the key to choosing the perfect-sized venue.
  • Location – Another important detail to consider is the location. Do you prefer a buzzing neighborhood or a quieter area? Remember to think about the convenience of everyone you’re inviting and, most importantly, the guest of honor. The location should be easy to get to, so pay attention to things such as road access, traffic, parking spaces or public transit links.
  • Food & drinks – What’s a celebration with nothing to eat or drink?! You can serve a three-course dinner, have a buffet with light snacks or maybe opt for something in between. Some venues will offer on-site, while others will allow you to bring your own food. Whichever option you pick, don’t forget to include a few of the future mom’s favorites while working on the menu!

Who should throw the baby shower?

Typically, it’s a female relative, such as a cousin, or a close friend of the mom-to-be who plans and throws the baby shower. According to tradition, close relatives were not supposed to act as hosts, because it could be seen as directly asking for gifts. However, nowadays the rules are not strictly adhered to, and it’s perfectly okay for the sister or mother to hold the celebration. Some expecting women prefer to plan their own baby showers, too.

What happens during a baby shower?

During a baby shower, close family and friends of the expecting mother gather together to share the joy and celebrate the new arrival. It’s quite common to combine a baby shower with a sex reveal party. The celebration typically involves munching on some food, chatting and sharing stories of motherhood (but be careful not to freak out the mom-to-be!). The guest of honor usually opens the gifts, but it’s okay to skip this part if it feels too awkward. You can also plan some baby-themed activities, but remember to get a green light from the mom to make sure she’s comfortable with whatever you have in mind.

Should the father be invited to the baby shower?

Baby showers are traditionally all-female parties. However, it’s not a hard and fast rule and co-ed events are growing in popularity! So, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t invite the father and other male relatives and friends to share the joy together. But make sure you consult the guest list with the mom-to-be – after all, it’s as much a party for her as it is for her upcoming baby.
