Christening card - what to write

Options
hi,

i am going to a christening on saturday and have bought a blank christening card.

Who do i write it to, the parents or child and what would be a nice thing to write? is is congratulations, have a good day?????

Please help - googled this but just seemed to bring up lots of things where people were against christenings.

I know i can rely on you lot.

By the way the card was 29p from Home Bargains - really nice and great value.
now mum of 4!!!

  • id write it to the whole family (inc any other kids) .............wishing w x y and z lots of health and happiness on the happy occasion on w's christening.......if the family are more religious u could mention more on that.............or u could just say to w x y z thankyou for letting us share this special day with u love your family
    onwards and upwards
  • I usually write to the parents and child, e.g. to John, Jane and baby Jack. Then something like, "with all our love and best wishes on the baptism of Jack Benjamin". And then close with "God bless" (if you are at all religious - if not, this may sound insincere!) and your name.
