Common questions

What's the best way to deliver a witty wish without offending a colleague?

Keep it lighthearted and positive. Focus on shared office experiences (e.g., 'new boss,' 'all-nighters') or the humorous aspects of new parenthood, avoiding anything too personal or advice-giving unless explicitly asked. If in doubt, err on the side of sweet and clever rather than overly sarcastic.

Should I include a gift with my witty message?

While the message itself is a thoughtful gesture, a small gift is customary for a baby shower. It doesn't have to be extravagant; a practical item from their registry, a cute outfit, or even a gift card can be a wonderful complement to your witty card.

Is it okay to use an inside joke with a colleague in a baby shower card?

Absolutely, if it's a positive, universally understood, and appropriate inside joke! It shows your genuine connection and personalizes the message. Just ensure it won't be misinterpreted by other guests or seem exclusionary. If it refers to something only you two would understand and isn't private, it's a great touch.
