What is a Sip and See? Ideas for Hosting a Party
What is a Sip and See?
A Southern tradition, A sip and see is a casual gathering or open house to give family and friends the opportunity to meet your new baby boy or girl. It’s the perfect way to introduce your little one without having to plan multiple visits to everyone you know. It can be held instead of a baby shower or in addition to a baby shower.
When should you host your sip and see?
This is up to you. If you are feeling up to it, you can plan your sip and see a couple weeks or a month or two after your delivery. It’s usually easier to host the party at your home or have it at your parents or close family members house if that is more convenient for you.
What about gifts?
