Does anybody have some good ideas for a Sip and See party?

I am throwing my best friend a Sip and See party for her and her new baby. Our theme is "angel". We have decided on finger foods, mimosas, flowers, a tip jar, and cupcakes. Is there anything else that we are forgetting? Any ideas to make it a cuter party? All ideas are welcome. Also, should we give little guest presents (like gourmet cookies) to guests as they leave?Does anybody have some good ideas for a Sip and See party?
Be sure to have a non-alcoholic punch, especially if she's nursing the baby:) Pink lemonade with frozen whole strawberries, instead of ice cubes, would be nice:) ... The cookies are a cute idea. At Michael's, in the wedding decor aisle, they have white netting bags, with ribbon drawstrings, that are about 10 for $1:) Maybe bowls of pink %26amp; white Jordan almonds, or jelly bellies .....You can buy puffs of pink cotton candy in bags in the grocery; they would look like little pink clouds, and maybe you could put some angels on them, on a dish ......These cookies are light %26amp; airy too.....



MERINGUE COOKIES

3 egg whites

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla

3/4 c. sugar

1/2 c. chocolate chips (I like mini morsels)

1/2-1 c. chopped pecans

1/4 c. coconut

1-2 drops red food coloring

Beat egg whites, salt %26amp; vanilla until stiff. Add sugar and beat to stiff peaks. Stir in chocolate, nuts %26amp; coconut. Drop by spoonfuls onto brown paper bag or parchment paper on cookie sheet. Bake at 300 for 25 mint. Let stand 10 min. to cool before removing from paper. Makes 3-4 doz....

( I also add crushed candy cane %26amp; peppermint extract at Christmas)Does anybody have some good ideas for a Sip and See party?
Is the tip jar for tips for caring for baby? You may want to include a wishing jar where guests write wishes for the new angel. it is a great keepsake. we did this at my daughter's christening. Have a wonderful time.
