What to Write in a Christening Card
If you’re looking for a little help and inspiration with what to write in a Christening card we’ve made a few suggestions below (these can be tweaked for Naming Day messages too as many of the messages are non religious too). Before you decide on what to write you’ll need to decide whether you’re writing the message to the child’s parents or to the child.
If you are the godmother, godfather or supporting adult in a naming ceremony, you might want to write the message to the child – perhaps the parents will keep the card in the baby’s memory box for years to come!
Christening Messages from a Godparent or supporting adult to the child:
To my special Godson on your christening day.
I am so honoured and proud to be your Godmother. I make my promises to you that I will love you, help guide you, encourage you, listen to you, be there should you need me and always hold you in my thoughts.
With much love on this special day, your Godmother Sally x
To my beautiful Goddaughter Rosie,
With lots of love on your special Christening day. I am very honoured to be your Godmother and proud to celebrate this wonderful day with you. On your journey through life, I promise to always be there for you – encouraging and listening to you.
I look forward to sharing and making lots of happy memories with you in the future,
Love your Godmother Alison x

Show Them Some Love
So the big day has been and gone, it was a great success and everyone shared that lovely day. But what happens next?
That christening card was a beautiful statement of how much you love both the parents and the child in question, the card will sit proudly on the shelf for all to see. Perhaps it will be kept in a keepsake box for the future too and every now and then the card can be re-read with your special message.
If you’d like your message of how much they mean to you to be a little more permanent, why not give them a piece of personalised art that they will see everyday. A gorgeous design that both looks great on their wall and also reiterates that they are constantly in your thoughts and in your heart.
Take a look at these Personalised Prints, elegant and sentimental – a beautiful reminder that they are loved.
