How to prepare a baby shower gift wishlist

1. Agree on the family’s needs

Ask the people receiving the gifts what they need and what they would prefer to avoid. Check existing belongings, space and quantities before adding new ideas. If you are planning a surprise, agree on general preferences first. There is no need to publish the baby’s name, expected birth date or medical information.

2. Create the Baby shower celebration

Sign in, open Celebrations and select Baby shower. Choose a recognizable title and complete only the details you want to share. Saving creates the event’s wishlist. The button at the end of this guide opens that celebration type. If you cannot register or sign in, contact the support team.

3. Add specific ideas without overwhelming guests

Describe sizes, measurements, quantities and preferences where relevant. Include your own idea without a URL or a store link for a particular reference. Add your own image if it helps explain the idea. The list coordinates wishes but does not certify that a product is suitable or safe: check the manufacturer’s instructions for its intended use before buying.

4. Offer variety and prioritize essentials

Include different budgets without asking guests to spend a set amount. Avoid accidentally adding the same item in multiple cards; explain the quantity needed in its description. Prices are approximate and should be checked with the store. Drag cards by the handle or use the arrows to put the most important ideas first.

5. Share one common link or QR code

Open Share link to copy the URL, prepare a WhatsApp message or download a QR image for the invitation. Everyone can receive the same wishlist link. You might write: “We are excited to share this moment with you. If a gift idea would help, here are a few wishes; there is no need to bring a present.” Send the gathering’s address through a private channel where appropriate.

6. Explain reservations and changes of plan

Encourage guests to reserve only something they plan to take care of. Other guests see availability while the wishlist owner cannot see reservations. Reserving does not purchase a gift or guarantee stock. Each guest checks the reference, purchases separately and arranges delivery. If plans change, they should cancel their own reservation to make the idea available again.

Common questions

Does a baby shower need a draw?

No. This celebration uses a common wishlist and reservations without assigning who gives to whom.

Does reserving prevent every duplicate gift?

It helps people using the wishlist coordinate, but someone may buy without reserving or outside the list. Guests should check availability before purchasing.

Can I add an idea without a store link?

Yes. Choose your own idea and describe what you would like. A URL is optional for that wish type; the platform does not purchase it or arrange the service.
