Handmade christening accessories for boys and girls – everything you need for an unforgettable ritual. When we choose christening accessories, we want them to be one of a kind and unique, made especially for our child. That is where we come in – the team at the Alfa Brides bridal shop.Preparation is the foundation of a flawless celebration, and we know very well that every parent is excited about trends in decoration, favours, clothes and accessories. So an important thing to consider, after the godparent and the date, is what the Christening theme The nautical theme is especially popular, not only for boys but also because of the favoured blue colour. From the decoration to the little keepsake favours, the whole design should be stylish and consistent, setting the tone for the celebration so it feels like an adventure.The “Little Princess” theme, done in pink, is also very popular. Parents go for light, cheerful colours and fun children’s themes. Sometimes it is the child’s favourite toy or a fairytale character. The godparent and their role at the celebration The godparent is the most important person at the celebration after the child. He or she should be someone close to you whom you trust completely to be a reliable support in your child’s spiritual life. The bond created between your family and them is a lifelong bond for both sides, and they too should take the responsibility seriouslyPart of the godparent’s role is providing the accessories and clothes after the baptism. If you have been chosen as godparent, you should know that you are expected to provide:A ritual candle, a towel with the name and date of the event, a box for a lock of hair, a bottle for the holy oil, a small towel and soap for the priest, a clothes box and the clothes themselves.Ask about the requirements of the particular church where the ceremony will take place. There are small differences, so you should ask the priest who will conduct the christening. The child’s clothes symbolise their new spiritual beginning That is why white is preferred. Godparents most often choose a white shirt and suit for a little boy and a white dress for a little girl. These are the most important things to think about for your child’s christening. If you have more ideas and want the celebration to be truly impressive and unforgettable, at ALFA BRIDES you can find a huge choice of: guest favours to pack in stylish bags, towels with and without embroidery (with the option of embroidering the child’s name and date), ready-made accessory sets, and a guest book to remain as a keepsake for the child. Every year a child has a birthday and a name day, but there is only one christening in a lifetime. You don’t need to spend a lot of money, but it is good to have a vision, a good helper in organising and a wide choice – you can find all this at: ALFA BRIDES
