Questions
Teddy bear picnic shower FAQs
Can I have a picnic shower in a park?
Yes, in many Chicago parks. Check whether you need a permit for canopies or more than a small group, and bring weights instead of stakes.
What do I need to rent for a baby shower?
Usually chairs and tables for every guest, linens, a dessert or gift table, plates and glassware if you are serving brunch, and a backdrop. Many hosts add a beverage dispenser and cake stand.
How many guests come to a typical baby shower?
Most showers are 20 to 50 guests, which fits three to six 60-inch rounds or two long banquet tables.
Can I rent everything for a baby shower in one order?
Yes. Pick the rentals from this page or the planner and send one free quote. We book them with Chicago-area rental partners and list delivery, setup, a damage waiver and sales tax line by line before you pay anything.
