Please post some pics of your baby's baptism.

I am looking for ideas for the baptism. Invitations, entertainment, favors, etc...

I would love to view some photos. Thanks ladies.

We did these for invitations ( this is the one from the site, not my DD's)...Ours read:

Heaven sent from up above,
a sweet baby girl for us to love
Please join us for the Chrstening of our daughter......



And these were her favors :

Barb made this for me. I like an invitation I saw with a baby's hand holding the rosary, so I just took a pic of my ds holding his.



Sorry I dont know why it is so small. I'll see if I can resize again

I would personally not do a gown for a boy. A cute little pant suit or shorts would be what I would do.Chat Icon

My son wore the white sweater vest with matching white pants. My second son is going to wear the same thing. Thank goodness it fits!!!

You can put your son in anything you'd like. I remember my cousin's (all boys) wore the christening gown but I think today it's very old school if anyone still does it.

DS was baptized last month. I'll upload my pics today and post them. I used Emerald City Sweets for my favors (chocolate lollipops) and they were awesome!

We had his party at the Heritage Center at Heritage Park in Mt. Sinai. We decorated with white roses and blue ribbons. The favors were baby powder scented candles I found at AC Moore and I tied a cute little poem to each one. The (rather ugly) cake is from Costco. I had no idea the blue would be so bright! Oh, and DS's outfit is from a little shop in Sayville. I had such a hard time finding something I liked for a boy that was light weight. What I finally found was perfect -- linen!

I beg to differ-They spelt B's name wrong on his cake, they left out the Y. So they took it back, and only had blood red icing to re-do it. This is what they brought out.

Even B is afraid of the cake
