Question To shoot or not to shoot, that is the question

A friend of mine asked me to do a friend of hers' baby shower photos. I haven't asked her exactly what she wants out of it, but I have never really done events before. I do lots and lots of portraits but events scare me. Though a baby shower is not as big a deal as a wedding or anything like that, it still freaks me out a little. I'm using a Canon 50d with the kit lens, and I assume the baby shower will be indoors which worries me a bit because I seem to screw up lighting wise on indoor photos. Would it be better for me to pass this up or use it as a learning opportunity? What sort of equipment should I have, ideally? (not that i'll actually be able to acquire any of it before this Saturday, if I agree to do it) What would you look for when photographing a group of ladies at a baby shower?
