Traveling for my baby shower!

Nicole
 Hello so I have a question! I will be flying back home to Arizona and having a baby shower with all my friends and family. Due to me flying  back to the East Coast, I will be unable to bring home any excessive  baggage i.e. pack and plays, highchair, car seats anything large if I  receive it as a gift. I will also be traveling with my two-year-old.  So to avoid that I was trying to think of a unique way to put in the baby shower invitations to keep a gift small or gift cards but I don't want to be tacky or rude so does anybody have any suggestions on how I could do this? TIA
