Tips for Choosing the Perfect Prize
- •Think about your crowd: Are your guests mostly girlfriends? Couples? A mix? Choose accordingly
- •Make it gender-neutral: Since anyone might win, pick prizes anyone would enjoy
- •Presentation matters: Wrap it up nicely or put it in a cute gift bag — it makes the prize feel more special
- •Announce the prize early: Let guests know what they're playing for when they get the invitation. It motivates more diapers!
- •Consider multiple small prizes: Two or three smaller prizes can be more fun than one big one, especially with a large guest list
