Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Question

Can I bring an univited guest?

Answer

Please adhere to the number of seats reserved in your honor. The venue has limited seating and we cannot exceed the capacity. In the event we did not have the opportunity to meet your guest before the shower, let's set something up after mom and baby are settled. There will not be seats for unaccounted guests.

Question

Can I bring uninvited children?

Answer

The venue headcount does include children. As such, if children are not a part of the seats reserved in your honor, please do not bring them unless they are lap infants.

Question

Can I touch the bump?

Answer

Please do not touch mom's belly without asking or being invited. This is a special yet vulnerable time and despite the excitement we would like to be mindful of personal space and overstimulating the mom to be on what should be a fun day! Imagine 50+ people rubbing on your stomach, this can be very invasive and overwhelming.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

There is no formal dress code, but it will likely be a humid NJ summer. Dress for the weather and in something you wouldn't mind Baby Smith seeing as your first photo with them.

Question

Are there accomodations for invited children?

Answer

While we can't wait to see your invited little ones, the venue does not provide booster seats or high chairs. Please take this into consideration.

Question

Can I take pictures?

Answer

Please feel free to take pictures; however, there is also a professional photographer and we ask you do not get in the way of her staged photos as she is being paid to capture these memories for the parents!

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes, the venue is in a shopping plaza and has ample self-parking! Please feel free to drive or use a ride-share service.
