Oh my gosh, you guys! Let me tell you – planning a Finding Dory-themed baby shower is like taking a swim through the most vibrant, magical ocean, and I can’t wait to spill all the tea on how to make it unforgettable!
Thanks to some fantastic tools – Finding Dory Baby Shower Party Planner – you can have this event organized and fabulous without the headache. Trust me, I’ve been there and I’m here to help you make sure it’s smooth sailing from start to finish!
Customize Your Sheets with These Key Planner Sections
Alright, so you’ve got your Google Sheets planner ready, now it’s time to make it work for you!
Let’s break it down into easy-to-manage sections, so you’re covered in every department.
And trust me, from someone who’s planned more than one sea-themed event, these are the sections that make a world of difference:
Guest List Tab:
This one is an absolute must. You’ll want to keep track of who’s coming, whether they have any special dietary requirements (hello, vegan-friendly snacks!), and, of course, who’s RSVP’d so you’re not running around last minute trying to figure out how much cake to order.
Tip: Add a column for gifts, so you can make sure everyone’s needs are met, and if they brought anything special for the baby!

Budget Tracker Tab:
You know how easy it is to get carried away when you’re planning the party of your dreams!
A Finding Dory baby shower might just tempt you to go overboard with all those adorable decorations, so a solid budget tracker is key.
This sheet will help you allocate funds, track expenses, and avoid those “oops, I spent too much” moments.
It even automatically calculates your totals so you won’t miss a penny. Magic, right?
Menu Planner Tab:
Planning the menu for a Finding Dory-themed baby shower is so much fun!
You can get creative with fish-shaped cookies, sea-inspired cupcakes, and even a “Dory’s Dive” punch (that’s a little lemonade with a splash of blue raspberry).
The menu planner tab will keep everything organized and give you a clear overview of dishes and catering needs, so you won’t forget that one key dish.
Pro Tip: Think about color coordination here – everything from drinks to desserts should feel like part of the ocean!
Games & Activities Tab:
What’s a baby shower without some fun games? Here’s where you get to really dive into the fun!
Plan interactive games like “Underwater Trivia” or “Dory’s Treasure Hunt.”
Use the games tab to jot down rules, prizes, and supplies needed.
Bonus Tip: For a personal touch, add a game where everyone writes down their best “motherhood advice” for the new mom-to-be. It’s heartfelt, memorable, and fun!
Decoration Checklist Tab:
This tab is where the magic happens – literally! From finding the perfect blue balloons to creating “fishy” centerpieces, the decoration checklist will help you stay on top of it all.
Don’t forget themed items like Dory and Nemo figurines, and a gorgeous ocean backdrop for photos!
Timeline Tab:
Here’s where you get serious! This tab helps you stay on track with everything you need to do before, during, and after the party.
Set milestones, reminders, and plan when to buy the decorations, when to send out invites, and so much more.

Tips for Making the Most of Your Planner
Okay, you’ve got your planner—now what? Let me tell you, it’s all about staying organized and making your life easier. Here’s how to make the most of this handy tool:
- Regularly Update the Sheet
Listen, nothing feels worse than realizing you forgot to update something on your list.
I always make sure to keep my planner updated with any changes, whether it’s a new RSVP or a change in the menu. It keeps everything flowing smoothly.
- Share the File with Co-Hosts for Collaboration
Oh yes, don’t try to do it all alone, mama! If you’ve got a co-host or a few helping hands, share the planner with them.
Google Sheets lets you share it with anyone, and they can jump in to add their own ideas or track their tasks. It’s a team effort, and sharing is caring!
- Use Conditional Formatting for At-a-Glance Status Updates
Okay, let me tell you – this is one of my favorite hacks! Use the conditional formatting feature (you can find it in the toolbar) to highlight things like completed tasks, pending tasks, and priority items.
You’ll get an instant visual cue of where things stand. It’s like a roadmap for your shower success!
Now you’re not just organized—you’re practically a party-planning pro!
