The most beautiful Babyshower locations in Rotterdam.
A baby shower can be held in many different types of locations and with our work for the Rotterdam Balloon Company, we have already been to many different places to dress up a baby shower with our balloons. Below you will find an overview of baby shower locations in Rotterdam where we visit most often. We have listed the most popular places for you.
At someones home
You can easily organize a baby shower at someone's home. For example, with the expectant mother herself, with her sister or with her parents, or with one of her friends at home. The living room is often the best place for the baby shower, but if the weather is nice, you can of course go outside in the garden, on the balcony or roof terrace. The advantage of celebrating a baby shower at home is that you don't have to stick to an end time and that the space costs you nothing. A disadvantage is that you have to do your own shopping and provide everyone with a snack and a drink. You can also spend extra costs on renting chairs and the necessary decoration in the house.
In a Restaurant or Café
Baby showers are also very often celebrated in Rotterdam restaurants and cafes. Often a table is reserved for you where the whole group can sit down, but there are also restaurants and cafes that have a separate room available for this type of event. The advantage of having a baby shower in a cafe or restaurant is that you don't have a mess at home and all the food and drinks are taken care of for you. Even the decoration can be done for you. The downside is of course the cost. They will be a lot higher than when you celebrate a baby shower at someone's home.
In a hall
You can also rent a hall or space somewhere in Rotterdam. This can be a community center or a room at a playground where you can bring your own food and drinks, but there are also plenty of event locations in Rotterdam that only rent out a space for these kinds of occasions and work with their own catering service. The advantage of renting a room is that you don't have any hassle at home and that there is enough space for all guests. A disadvantage may be that the room may be a bit too large and you need a lot of decoration to make the room attractive.
Outside
Are you planning a baby shower in the summer or when the weather is nice? Then consider keeping the baby shower outside. That can still be at someone's home in the garden or on the terrace of a catering facility, but how about a baby shower with a BBQ at the Kralingse Plas, for example? The advantage is of course the nice weather and the disadvantage is that it will of course remain the Netherlands and that the weather is very unpredictable. Therefore, always have a plan B.
What is a Baby Shower?
At a baby shower you celebrate the birth or the expected birth of a child or the change from a woman to mother. The term 'shower' herein means that the mother-to-be is showered with gifts such as diapers, blankets, bottle, clothes and toys. Traditionally, baby showers are only organized for the first child of the family and only women are invited. In addition to giving gifts, games are often played.
Baby Shower for Fathers
Some baby showers are aimed at dads. These may be more focused on drinking beer, watching sports, fishing, or playing video games. The gifts often consist of diapers and/or diaper-related items. The organization of the diaper party is usually done by the friends of the expectant father as a way to prepare for the coming baby.
Baby Shower Balloons
A baby shower is a festive occasion and where there is a party, balloons and other baby shower decoration cannot be missed. Make your baby shower extra special with our helium balloons and balloon decorations. Make the guests at the baby shower feel welcome by having a balloon arch placed in front of the door, for example, or put some balloon decoration on or around the gift table. On this page you can already get some inspiration from baby showers in Rotterdam that we have decorated.
