Things to Consider for Your Baby Shower in Chicago

Are you planning a baby shower in beautiful Chicago? Before deciding on a venue, consider the pros and cons of choosing the Windy City as your event destination.

Advantages

  • Chicago is a culturally rich city with notable contributions to music, the visual arts, literature, and architecture. With such diversity, it's not that hard to find unique venues for your baby showers, private parties, or corporate events.

  • Chicago's public transport is among the country's best, only behind the likes of New York, San Francisco, and Washington, DC. Neither you nor any of your guests will have trouble getting around without a car.

  • If you like green spaces, you'll love Chicago. Take your attendees on a tour of the most popular locations, such as Grant Park, Millennium Park, and Lincoln Park.

Disadvantages

  • Chicago is a very expensive city that seeps into all aspects of daily life. When looking for a venue in Chicago, use a platform like Giggster to find the best deals.

  • Winters in Chicago can be harsh, but due to climate change, they've become more manageable in the last couple of years. With that being said, there's no escaping the gloomy weeks or months with no sunlight.

  • While public transport is marvelous, there can still be a lot of traffic, especially during rush hour. Consider planning your event before or after rush hour.

Choosing the Right Type of Location for a Baby Shower in Chicago

The theme of your baby shower will largely influence your location search. It's important that the venue matches your vision and also fits into your budget. With Giggster, you can browse a curated list of options and find the perfect venue. Get your planning underway with Giggster!

Studio Bars – Live Entertainment. Are you hoping for a memorable baby shower venue? Host the perfect celebration in a compact studio bar in Bucktown, Chicago.

Mansions – Luxurious Spaces. You're in luck if your baby shower vision includes a sophisticated chateau. Book an elegant 12,000 sq ft mansion nestled between Logan Square and Palmer Square, complete with a beautiful lounge with a built-in bar, a marble fireplace, and a cathedral ceiling. It is sure to make an impression on your friends!

Outdoor Space – Gazebos. Book a patio in the South Shore neighborhood and make your baby shower a unique outdoor event. The patio is complete with a stunning gazebo, a hot tub, comfy furniture, and professional sound systems, keeping your guests entertained.

Planning Your Baby Shower in Chicago

Whether you're planning your own or a friend's baby shower, it's no small feat. To make sure everything runs smoothly, you'll need to break it down into manageable steps. If it's your first time planning a party, here's how to get started.

Determine a Budget – How much can you really spend? Break it down into a list and account for things like the venue, food, beverages, and entertainment. Make sure you prioritize items according to their impact on the success of the party.

Choose the Intimate Venue – Now that you have a clear budget it's time to move on to selecting the venue—by far the most fun you'll have when planning an event! Get started with Giggster's curated list of locations, and apply filters to narrow your search and find the venues that fall in your range.

Prepare the Entertainment – Prepare fun tabletop games that match the venue's theme, hire a local band to play live music, or get creative. As long as your attendees are entertained, you can't go wrong!

Prepare the Refreshments – You can hire a professional caterer or do it yourself, but make sure there's enough food to keep your guests going for the evening. Make it a point to ask about dietary restrictions and ensure there are options for everybody!

Set Up Your Party Space – Decorate your venue to match your theme. Bring in the food and get everything ready. Soon enough, you'll be welcoming your guests!

How to Save Money on Your Baby Shower in Chicago, IL

Chicago is among the most expensive cities in the US. Still, you don't have to break the bank to host an incredible baby shower. Here's how you can maximize your investment.

Take care of catering yourself.

If you're throwing a baby shower for your closest friends and relatives, hiring a professional caterer is unnecessary. Look up ideas online for simple canapes and include simple beverages like sparkling wine and punch. Ultimately, consider hosting a potluck baby shower instead and make everyone feel like part of the planning team.

Book the venue early.

This is good advice, no matter the type of celebration you're hosting. The sooner you book the venue, the sooner you can relax and start working on the other key aspects of a successful party. You’ll also have a higher chance of securing your top choice! Check the venue features in the meantime, including the in-house amenities.

Reuse old decorations.

You don't need to spend a lot on brand-new decorations, professional lighting rigs, or party planners. Reuse old decorations, shop at local thrift stores, or ask your friends for help creating your own. Look up ideas online and get inspired—make it a bonding experience with your closest friends!
