This is not about dudes attending a baby shower, co-ed baby showers or even a baby shower that happens to only have men attending. The Man Shower is an event specifically for the Dad-To-Be.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Dad-To-Be
  • What Dad-To-Be likes
  • Friends and Family
  • Venue
  1. Step 1

    Figure out what Dad-To-Be likes! This event is not the second coming of the bachelor party. The Man Shower should be masculine event, but it doesn't have to be just guys either. This is not an event to make Dad-to-be miss his freedom. Sports day, night out drinking, barbecue party, tailgating at a sporting event and poker night are all great ideas.

  2. Step 2

    Decide on food/drink. Steaks, burgers and dogs? Snacks and chips? Whatever it is, don't forget the beer.

  3. Step 3

    Decide on gifts. This is not the second coming of the baby shower so leave the diapers at home! Things like a bottle of scotch and plenty of gag gifts.

  4. Step 4

    Send out invitations. Use evite, email or plain word of mouth. Fancy invitations are not necessary. Just make sure the rules are explained!

  5. Step 5

    Set the party up. Skip the decorations unless you're setting up a drinking game. Leave the diaper cakes for the baby shower!

Tips & Warnings
  • Mom-to-be is the star but Dad-to-be deserves something special too!
  • Remember it's NOT another bachelor party! Keep it tame, but still fun.
  • Make it all about Dad-to-be. There's going to be plenty of baby games and gifts at the real baby shower.
