Baby shower invitation wording: examples, registry lines and when to send
Short answer
Say who the shower honours, the date and time, the place, who is hosting, and how and by when to RSVP. Add one short line for the registry or a theme (books instead of cards, diaper raffle). Send invitations 4 to 6 weeks before the shower; most showers are held 4 to 8 weeks before the due date.
