Drive-by shower ?

Question

Hi Mamas,
I am a FTM, and was planning to have a baby shower. I have purchased many items for it already, along with gift bags for my guests.
Due to where I’m located going into lockdown yet again... I don’t have a choice but to cancel it at my venue. Did any other mamas do a drive-by shower ? Looking for some ideas for one or if it was worth it or not!! 
Any suggestions would be awesome!  Thanks.

Answer

We had one last weekend and it was so fun!!! My family/friends who put it on for me made little brunch boxes to hand out to people as they drove by. I recommend making it a short times frame, around an hour so you aren’t out there all day. Decorate cute & play some music and you’ll have a blast!!

Answer

I am having one April 11th! I have placed everyone in 20 minute time slots. I have some typical decor for outside and will have individually wrapped snacks and drinks. I have a few games to play with each guest and will deliver the winner their prize.

Answer

I just had one on Saturday and it was great! I felt like I was able to have a personal interaction with each guest (brief, socially distant, with masks of course). Almost all of my guests hadn't seen my bump in person, so that's why we did drive by instead of virtual. I would just recommend you give instructions regarding which way to go on the street and if possible pick a location that has wide, quiet streets so others in the neighborhood don't get stuck in your drive by line. We gave an hour window of time which was perfect. We had guests consistently arriving the whole time, but no one had to wait for too long. I opened gifts with immediate family at home afterwards and took photos. I plan to include a photo with each person's gift in the thank you cards. You could also do a virtual gift opening if you wanted too. Also wear or bring an extra pair of practical shoes...my feet were swollen by the end of the day!

Answer

We did one! Notified our neighbors in advance so they knew there would be some traffic. We did about a two hour window, set up outside with a seat for my husband, myself and my family, had goodie bags ready to go and passed them out. Sweet and simple
