A Shalom Zachor (שלום זכור Hebrew) is celebrated by most Ashkenazim on the first Friday night after a baby boy is born.
It consists of light refreshments and takes place after the Friday night meal. Typically it takes place in the parents home or in the synagogue hall by Hasidim.
References to Shalom Zachor are numerous, including the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch in 164:8, where he declares it to be a Se'udat Mitzva - as opposed to a voluntary se'uda, like the one made for Vacht Nacht
