At Villa Serafina in Webster, just 45 minutes from Orlando, Tampa, and Ocala, hosting a baby shower feels easy and welcoming. With outdoor patios, spacious grounds, and an elegant reception hall, guests can relax and celebrate comfortably. Our clear vendor and beverage policies keep planning simple, while indoor and outdoor options make weather stress-free.
How to create a warm, welcoming flow
Start with a relaxed arrival
Open outdoors sets the mood. Greet guests on the Patio. It is an open air space with structure underfoot, so conversations start naturally while gifts and strollers make their way from the parking area. When you are ready to shift into games or toasts, move inside to the Reception Hall. Its graceful architecture and glowing light make the room feel inviting for seated activities and mingling.
Give everyone room to breathe
Showers bring together friends, coworkers, and extended family. The Grounds include sun dappled lawns, shaded groves, and winding paths, which creates quiet corners for a quick catch up or a short walk between activities. If you want a shared moment where everyone gathers close for well wishes, our Circle Ceremony layout surrounds the guest of honor in the round beneath open sky and ancient trees.
Keep planning simple with clear policies
Choose the approach that fits your style. With our DIY path, you may bring your own licensed and insured vendors. Your caterer must be insured and provide full service. All bar service is booked through Traditions Event Services. You may provide your own liquor, and Traditions handles the service and insurance. Concierge alcohol shopping is available if you prefer help in advance. If you would like an overview of packaged options, request the guide on our Packages & Pricing page.
Care for the guest of honor
A calm start sets the tone for the day. Our Bridal & Groom Suites are designed as serene retreats before the celebration begins. During events, the suite remains locked for safety and can be accessed by our team when needed.
Be ready for weather without stress
Florida forecasts can change quickly. You will have multiple indoor and outdoor spaces on one property, so it is easy to bring parts of the plan inside the Reception Hall without changing the flow. Many hosts welcome on the Patio, move to the hall for activities, then step onto the Grounds for portraits during golden hour.
