Who do you address a christening card to?<\/span><\/h2>\n

The first question you may ask before writing a christening card is who to address it to. The baby, obviously, will not be able to read it. It\u2019s the parents that will receive the card and give their thanks for celebrating with them. So, who should you address the card to and why?<\/span><\/p>\n

For godparents, it\u2019s customary to address the card to their godchild. Not only does this strengthen the connection between you and the baby, but it will also be a cherished memory that the child will be able to look back on when they grow up. That\u2019s the magic of cards \u2013 they\u2019re mementos of a moment in time!<\/span><\/p>\n

For the other guests, a card addressed to the parents would be appropriate. You are letting them know how happy you are to celebrate their child\u2019s special day, and a heartfelt message will reinforce that even more. This doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t buy a card for the baby as well. After all, what\u2019s better than one card but two?!<\/span><\/p>\n
