  • WHAT TO WRITE IN A CHRISTENING CARD

    Can’t think of that heart felt message for your Christening card?

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!
