How a Melbourne Baby Shower Comes Together

Most Melbourne baby showers are relaxed daytime gatherings with food, a few games and a styled corner for photos. The two decisions that matter are where it's held and who brings the food, since the parent-to-be shouldn't be left cooking.

For a hosted option, Afternoon Tea at The Hotel Windsor in the CBD serves from $89 per person in private rooms. Pubs work too: The Laurel Hotel in Ascot Vale starts from $38 per person, The Sunroom @ Hotel Esplanade in St Kilda from $47 per person, and Dandenong Pavilion in the South East from $25 per person for up to 80. For something hands-on, ArtBar Moorabbin runs a group painting session from $65 per person.

At home, grazing caterers do most of the work. Happy Belly Grazing sets up tables from $450 with vegan and gluten-free options, Grazing With Stella brings a Mediterranean spread, and Mamalyn Catering covers a Vietnamese buffet across most of the city.

Setting the scene:

  • Balloon arches: Fairytale Balloons from $299, or Lunar Balloons citywide.
  • A full theme in your colours: Kitty's Party from $500, delivered and packed down.
  • Backdrops and neon signs: One Big Day Event Hire from $300.
  • Extra seating and a marquee: MUX Events or Melbourne Event Hire.

Settle the date with the parent-to-be first, then book food and styling together. More ideas are under party decorations and caterers.
