How to invite guests to a baptism / christening
Send baptism or christening invitations three to four weeks ahead. Include the child's name, the church, the service time, the reception location and time, and any dress guidance. Name the godparents if you wish. Ask for replies one to two weeks before so you can plan the reception meal and seating. Guests reply from one link, and a reminder a few days out helps.

What a baptism / christening page does for you
A baptism or christening usually has two parts: the service at church and a lunch or reception afterward, often at a home or restaurant. Put the church address, service time, reception location and any dress guidance in detail rows, so guests know where to go and when. Share one link or QR code by text or email with family, godparents and friends. Each household replies yes, no or maybe and counts adults and children, and a guest note leaves room for a blessing for the child. Every reply emails you, the live guest list shows who is coming, and a CSV export helps plan the reception. Add to Calendar and map links are on the page, and a soft palette and a photo of the child suit the day.

Baptism / Christening RSVP questions
What do you wear to a baptism?
Dress as you would for a church service: modest, neat clothing such as a dress or skirt of a respectful length, or trousers with a collared shirt or blazer. Avoid very casual wear, and cover shoulders if the church expects it. Soft or light colors are common, though anything modest is fine.
Do you bring a gift to a baptism?
A gift is customary but not required. Common choices include a children's Bible, a cross or keepsake, a picture frame, a savings bond or a book. Godparents often give a more lasting gift, such as a christening candle or jewelry. A card with a written blessing is always appropriate.
