No, but I LOVE the idea.
I think your guests will as well.

I did it for my wedding. We did hand out token chocolate bars, but really it was a donation to make a wish. Noone complained...8 yrs ago.

I never thought of doing that for a christening, but I love the idea! I think I'll run it by DH for dd's christening.
For a christening, I think St. Jude's or the March of Dimes is are two great charities to donate to.

I am just doing favors because it's a very small party, but I think if you have a decent amount of people, it's a very fitting gesture.

My did it for my, my sisters & my brothers girlfriends baby showers!
No one seemed to mind! I wish I had thought to do it for my wedding!!
But I think totally appropriate for a christening!

I just did it with ST. Jude's REsearch Hospital. I will be getting scrolls to give to each guest. I am so happy with this.
