When to send out Christening Invites?
DS is getting Christened April 26th. Being its right after Easter (weekend after) and its right before Communion season, when would you send out your invites? We're having a casual party afterwards at our community clubhouse so I don't need a head count early, you know. Thanks!!
Also, how many of your guests came to the church and how many came to just the party? Thanks!

my son's is April 18th....I haven't even made it yet...
How did you get an April 11th date? I was told that there was no way that they would do a Christening Easter weekend.

Re: When to send out Christening Invites?
I sent mine out a bit less thanone month before, and gave them about 2 weeks to reply. That left me with 2 weeks to get a head count to the restaurant, etc. I would have liked to have sent them out sooner but I just couldn't get my act together! And with easter and Palm Sunday, my choices were limited.

Re: When to send out Christening Invites?
I would say you have to give people 4-6 weeks notice.
We had about 100 people at the Christening party and MAYBE 25 at the church.

Re: When to send out Christening Invites?
We sent the invites out one month prior but we only had close family/friends so everyone knew about it before they received the invite.
Everyone attended the church.
