I hosted a coed baby shower w/ alcohol for two couples a few months ago!. We did BBQ with fixins!. Dessert was the traditional pedifores (only because we LOVE them) and a strawberry vanilla trifle!.
Decorations were pretty simple white table clothes accented with yellow and green check fabric, flowers on each table, and rubber ducks here and there!. We had ducks floating in a bowl on the buffet table, there was a ducky on the invites, and I made rubber ducky lolipop cookies as thank you gifts!.
We did play one silly game that I thought was truly disgusting but lots of fun!. The dirty diaper game!. You melt candy bars in different diapers and the guests have to guess what type of candy bar it is!. Really gross but lots of fun for the guys!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Firstly, don't use too much pink and frilly things; you want the men to be comfortable!. Despite your best efforts, you may still end up with fewer male guests than expected!. If the men are too outnumbered, allow for the group of guys to have their own space at the party if they need it!. Stroller obstacle course is always a hoot and so is "put the diaper on a doll while blindfolded!."Www@FoodAQ@Com
My baby shower was "co-ed" too!. The guys did the guy thing in the backyard and bar-be-que'd the women did the baby shower thing in the living room!. It was FUN!
We had the traditional stuff!.!.!.!.burgers, hot dogs (kids were there as well), cake, chips, veggies & dips, crackers & cheese, punch, soda!.!.!.!.so whatever you'd plan for a BBQ is pretty much what was there!.
And if I remember correctly (because it was 16 years ago!), it was potluck as well, so everyone brought a dish (the grilled goods were provided by the hostess & spouse)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
