Nautical baby shower invitations

Celebrate the changing tides with nautical baby shower invitations from Paperless Post. Whether you’re the parents-to-be or a family member hosting, our collection of ocean-themed baby shower invitations is an adorable way to gather friends and family to celebrate the newest sailor aboard the ship. Enjoy our creative collection of seascape visuals while our online event management tools simplify the planning process.

How to customize nautical baby shower invites

Fill your sails with the customizable options that come with every one of our baby shower invitations. Whether it’s a sip-and-see, a baby sprinkle, or a classic baby shower, you can personalize all of our designs—change font types from modern and streamlined to elegant cursive, alter colors to coordinate with other design details like the venue, and move text boxes to get the perfect formatting. The customizable features go beyond the invitation itself, too—choose a matching envelope color, a liner with a patterned design, and a beachy backdrop to create a well-rounded seaside aesthetic.

What do you include in a nautical-theme baby shower invitation?

These days, baby shower invitation wording can be casually cool or buttoned up for a more traditional feel. Use ocean-inspired puns in your nautical-themed baby shower invitations, or write your own thoughtful message. The fundamental details to include in a baby shower invitation are:

  • Parent’s names
  • Baby’s name (if chosen)
  • Venue location
  • Date and time

Instead of adding registry or wishlist info to your main invitation, add a Registry Block. Blocks appear directly below your invitation so you can link to your registry without cluttering your beautiful invitation design.

When do you send baby shower invitations?

Roughly six weeks before the date is when to send your ocean-themed baby shower invitations. It’s the perfect amount of time to organize event details while allowing guests to book time off and figure out travel plans. For anyone who can’t attend, consider sending a birth announcement once the new family member arrives. And before the parents know it, their little sailor will grow up as quickly as possible, so start browsing 100 day celebration and first birthday invitations.

Plan your baby shower with Paperless Post

While the couple focuses on battening down the hatches by baby-proofing their abode, let us keep the planning afloat with our event management tools. RSVP tracking tallies all the yes’s and no’s and you can follow up with any non-responders with our guest messaging tool. If there are a few unopened invitations (which you can see with the check open status), send guests a gentle reminder that you’re waiting for their response. You can also include a Comment Wall for guests to send their well wishes.
