X post - What drinks do you expect at a shower?

I don't know why I am involved with planning my own baby shower but somehow I am.

It's a sit down lunch from 11 - 3 at Crabtree's in floral park.

It include soda and coffee/tea.

Would you expect alcoholic drinks at a baby shower at that time?

If so, what?

They often have a champagne punch, but I don't expect that at a shower. And I very rarely see wine offered at a Baby Shower.

Re: X post - What drinks do you expect at a shower?

sometimes a punch like others have said, however I do not think it is necessary

(although my best friend went to a baby shower yesterday and said everyone was drunk..Chat Icon )

Thanks ladies! I think the champagne punch would be great, but this place wants $7 pp for it and I think that's outrageous!!!!

Re: X post - What drinks do you expect at a shower?

punch maybe. Why don't you just have the staff inform people about a cash bar if they want an adult beverage? Or, do it by consumption..how many people are really going to drink? Not many I'm sure.

We threw my parents an anniversary party and a place and it was a luncheon. Only 4 people ordered drinks and the bill was $22.

Re: X post - What drinks do you expect at a shower?

No I wouldn't expect alcholic drinks.
We usually do house showers out here and we usually make punch and put out a bottle of champage that hardly ever gets touched.
I wouldnt' even worry about alcohol.

There was only wine and hard liquor at my SIL's baby shower today and I really had an urge for some punch. It was a house party though.

If people are concerned about alcohol at 11am , what drink they are getting should not be the may concern. Chat Icon

Re: X post - What drinks do you expect at a shower?

I have seen champagne/alcoholic punch as the most popular thing at a shower. What does x post mean?
