Questions about a christening?

Jump to Comments

Question by Sir Hoochalot: Questions about a christening?
I’m not invited to the actual christening but the after party which is going to be at the local cricket club. What is the appropriate attire?

Is it standard to bring a little gift (considering we’re not actually invited to the actual service) and if so for whom? The child or the parents?

Best answer:

Answer by Rollie H
If you’re not invited to the actual service, you shouldn’t have to bring a gift.

It would be cute to wear white shorts to the cricket club.

    I have been to plenty of christenings at churches and receptions i always bring a gift for the baby concerned i did wonder my self the first time i went to a reception and not the church and had a present hidden to see what others did its the norm to bring a gift as i found out!!

  • That entirely depends on how well you know them, in my opinion. A small present, perhaps a gift card for a baby store or an outfit, would be a nice and inexpensive gift.

    As for what to wear, a medium length dress with heels looks good, or smart blank trousers with a summery top is always good. :)
