Christening outfit for the party

DS will be wearing my gown. Its beautiful and was made in Ireland. I'm debating about changing him into a more easy to move casual outfit for the party, but I don't want to spend a lot or buy a "christening suit".

Do you know where I could find a white casual style outfit for a baby boy? I've checked ebay, but its all suits.

Thanks!!

I will find a pic of what I changed Jack into. It was really soft and comfy - I believe it was Wendy Bellismo and I got it at BRU.

Going to find a pic BRB

Thanks, you girls gave me some ideas. I may check out BRU's and see if they have something. I guess I could keep him in the gown too.

I found a wendy bellisimo (I think) white soft sweatery type outfit at BRU - but that was over 2 years ago. It actually could have worked for a DD or a DS. Good luck!

Re: Christening outfit for the party

I'm looking for something similar. DS is wearing the family gown for the church but it's 100+ years old and i don't want to be the one responsible for something happening to it at the restaurant! Chat Icon

I'll let you know if I find anything!

Awww, thanks! It's actually from DH's side of the family. His grandfather and all of his siblings wore it, as did his dad and his 10 brothers and sisters, and then DH and all his cousins. Lots of history!!! It's a simple gown but very nice...I'll be sure to post pics. Chat Icon
