Oh, Baby! You’re hosting a baby shower and the only thing you know for sure is it can’t be at your house. Fear not, we have a spot for you. No matter your budget, style, or side of town, check out this list of ten baby shower spots that you probably hadn’t thought of!

 

Indy Loop:

Chef Joseph’s at the Connoisseur Room 

Website

115 East Ohio Street, Indianapolis

Prices start at just the cost of food and drinks.

Chef Joseph’s has a classic feel and bottomless champagne cocktails. Need I say more? A private dining room and a lounge like area give you many options based on size and shower activities, and the menu is fully customizable.

PunchBowl Social 

Website

120 South Meridian Street, Indianapolis

Prices vary based on space reserved.

Not your average baby shower! Punch Bowl Social is perfect for the young at heart mom-to-be and her friends. Reserve a table for a meal and then play at available areas, or book a VIP bowling lane, a karaoke room or shuffle board table and play the day away. Bonus: You don’t even have to search for the punch recipe, they’ve got you covered!

Easley Winery

Website

205 North College Avenue, Indianapolis

$5 per person for a tour and wine tasting. Please contact Easley in advance to make arrangements for groups larger than 8.

If a casual day with the girls (and guys) is this mom’s thing, plan a day at Easley Winery. Even though she won’t be downing the bottles the wine tour and relaxed atmosphere combine to make a lovely event setting. Summer months bring live music to Easley and gifts of wine will give the new mama something (else) to look forward to when baby arrives.

Auto Vault

Rates starting at $500 per event.
one is perfect for a couple’s shower. Located in a historic downtown building the Auto Vault is an unexpected shower spot with the feel of a men’s club.
