A custom song for a baby shower
The one baby shower gift that is actually for her, not for the nursery.
Lyrics and music made with La Ritournelle AI
Every gift on the table is for the baby. The onesies, the swaddles, the wipe warmer nobody asked for. A custom song is the one thing that belongs to her: the friend who is about to become someone's whole world, and who has spent nine months being asked how she is sleeping instead of how she is doing.
Play it after the games and before the cake, and watch the room go quiet. It is the moment the shower stops being a checklist and starts being about her.
How to write your brief
Ideas to include
The mom to be, front and center
Who she was before the bump: her humor, her stubbornness, the way she has always shown up for everyone else.
The road to this day
The wait, the news, the first ultrasound photo she sent at 6am. Say only what she is comfortable sharing out loud.
The village around her
The sisters, the friends, the group chat that has been on call since week one, all promising she will not do this alone.
Perfect for
- The mom to be, as the surprise from her best friend
- The person hosting the shower and looking for a centerpiece moment
- A sister or mother who wants to say something bigger than a card
- A friend group chipping in on one gift together
Tone ideas
- Warm and funny, the way her friends actually talk to her
- Tender and reassuring for a first time mom
- Upbeat and celebratory, made to play out loud
- Quiet and heartfelt for the gift opening
Message example
This one is for you, Hannah, not the baby. La Ritournelle turned everything we love about you into a baby shower song, because you are about to be an incredible mom and somebody should say it out loud.
