How far in advance do you send out christening invitations?
How soon should you send invitations to a christening? Unlike a wedding, a christening usually only has a few weeks’ notice, so send the invitations out as soon as your venue is confirmed. If you feel snowed under with the new baby, ask family members or the godparents to help you organise the invitations.
Do you put parents name on christening card?
When a new baby is first born we pretty much always write to the parents and any older siblings when we write in a new baby card. We don’t normally write this card to the new baby. It’s interesting as the baby isn’t that much older when we start writing direct to them in their christening card.

Who is a christening card written to?
It’s a great idea to write the christening card to the baby especially if you are the godparent. The card will likely be kept for the child to read when they are older. For grandparents, aunties, uncles or family friends – just write to who you feel comfortable with – the best messages are written this way.
When writing a christening card Who do you address it to?
Writing Tip: When it’s a baby or young child being baptized, christened or dedicated, it makes sense to address your message to the parent(s) or family. But it’s not unheard of to direct your words to the little one, so feel free to do what feels right to you.

How long are you a godparent?
Unless you’re having an affair with one of the parents, in which case you are excused and can immediately drop all responsibility. Technically, the end of your role comes after confirmation, when the godchild is deemed old enough to fend for itself.
