FAQs
-
What should I write in a birth announcement message?
Include baby’s name, date/time, weight/length, parents’ names, and short heartfelt message. Choose tone to match your style: formal, playful, or sentimental. Adding a quote or sibling mention adds personality. -
How long should a message be for a gift box?
For printed chocolates or tags, keep messages under 20 words. For accompanying cards, 50–80 words lets you include warmth, context, and baby details without overwhelming. -
Can I use a quote in my birth announcement?
Absolutely! Quotes like “A star is born” or “Our hearts just grew by two feet” are popular. Choose something meaningful that reflects your emotions or family values. -
Is a digital birth announcement enough?
Digital announcements are efficient and shareable—great for afar friends/family. Pairing with a physical keepsake, like a personalized chocolate box, adds emotion and tangibility. -
When should I send birth announcements?
Traditionally within the first 1–2 weeks after birth. But earlier digital shares are common. Deliver physical gifts/cards soon after announcement, especially if announcing to close family or at events. -
What tone is best for a birth announcement?
There's no one-size-fits-all—match it to your family’s vibe. Use formal language for traditional families, humor for fun-loving ones, or sentimental notes for a more emotional touch. -
Can I include siblings or grandparents in the message?
Yes! Adding sibling or grandparent acknowledgments (“Big bro Sam can’t wait!”) personalizes the snapshot and highlights the joy of family expansion. -
What details are optional in announcements?
Things like birth weight, length, and time are optional. If you want brevity or clean design, leaving them off is perfectly acceptable. -
Are photo announcements popular in India?
Very much so! Modern Indian parents prefer elegant photo cards, magnets, chocolates, or frames to announce the arrival of their baby in stylish, visual formats. -
How do I personalize message for a baby girl vs boy?
Use subtle cues—like pastel pink/blue in text font or floral motifs. Language can also shift (“little princess” vs “little prince”), though neutral tones work well too.
