Does Anyone Know Where I Can Hold a Baby Shower?

I just hosted a baby shower at Patrizio's restaurant on Park in Plano. It was awesome. We just made a menu to go on each place setting that matched the invites telling people that we were serving appetizers and cake for dessert and that they could choose coffee, tea or soft drinks for their beverage. It was way easier than having it at my house. The table was set up in the private room so it was really fun. I highly recommend it! They also let you bring in your own cake and don't charge a cutting fee. If you are looking for a gift I have a business where I make custom artwork for infant nurseries. I just did 2 orders one was for a painting and another was for ribbon letters for the baby's room. Good luck with your baby shower!!!!!

If the weather is nice, I would have it outside on the patio of Obzeet (near Frankford & Preston). It is a really nice place, very laid back and it feels like you are in Austin.

Why not a private room at a restaurant? Many offer a small banquet room ..or even the club house at your apartment complex?

I'm sure you might have considered this, but what about the club house at one of the apartments? They are usually nice and great set ups for showers and such.

I helped host a large baby shower (75 people) for a friend. none of us had a house that could accomodate that many people. we used the clubhouse of an apartment complex. it turned out very well and was nice. it was a newish complex, and the clubhouse was well decorated and comfortable.

my other thought is a restaurant. hope that helps!

Not sure how much you are wanting to spend but I am planning to give one for my sister as well and we are looking at Lavender House in McKinney (Eldorado and 75). Its a new chic tea room and I have seen other showers in there before.
Good luck! A.

You can call Murphy Road Baptist Church in Murphy. They have weddings, baby showers, etc. for nonchurch members.

Bath junkie is a great place for private get togethers! Here's their website, There are a few locations in the metroplex (just click on locations).

Usually apartment complexes will lease their clubhouse at a very reasonable rate for events like showers or receptions. Maybe you could each call your apartment office to see who has the best place.

It's okay that everyone lives in an apartment. I've been to plenty of baby showers in apartments or in the apartments' 'party room.' If you just have too many people, consider the following: at someone's church; at someone's parents' house; at the honoree's place of business; or at a restaurant.

Have you looked at Into My Garden Tea Room on 15th Street in downtown Plano? It's inside the Nooks and Crannies gift shop. I have attended several showers there and it is a quaint little place with good food. www.intomygarden.com.

Are you looking for a restaurant? If so, the Celebrity Cafe is really good. Great lunch and desserts. You may already know of it. There is one in Frisco, Plano and Addison.
