Frequently Asked Questions
Is personalization safe for baby items?
Yes, when done properly. Avoid small detachable parts and use embroidery or printing instead of loose decorations. Always ensure personalized items meet safety standards for baby products.
What if the parents are minimalist?
Ask first before purchasing luxury items. Consider experience gifts like photo sessions, cleaning services, or meal delivery instead of physical items. Many minimalist parents prefer quality over quantity.
Are luxury gifts appropriate for all baby showers?
Consider the occasion and your relationship with the parents. Luxury gifts work well for milestone celebrations, close family/friends, or when you know the parents appreciate high-quality items.
How do I choose between luxury and practical gifts?
Consider the parents' lifestyle and preferences. Some parents prefer practical luxury (premium stroller, high-quality monitor) while others appreciate decorative luxury (artwork, keepsakes).
Should I include a gift receipt with luxury items?
Yes, always include a gift receipt with luxury purchases. This allows parents to exchange for different sizes, colors, or return if they already have the item.
