Baby Naming Ceremony

Baby naming ceremonies are a popular non-religious alternative to Christenings and Baptisms. Naturally new parents wish to celebrate the arrival of their baby and so, for those who don’t follow a religion, this is a great option.

A Christening follows a traditional set, where the child is taken by their parents and/or godparents to the priest or minister. Here the child is introduced to the Church congregation and the parents and godparents are named. From this point the priest/minister pours water over the babys head, therefore welcoming the child into the church. After the ceremony, most parents arrange a reception either at their home or a venue for a more relaxed celebration of the child’s Christening.

Naming Ceremonies typically omit religious involvement. Certainly they are not held at a church, nor is a priest or minister present to oversee the ceremony. Generally, however, Naming Ceremonies do follow Christian guides, where instead of focus on the  ”Christening” of the child, they build their ceremony around the  “Naming” of the child. Where a Christening service will include hymns and readings, Naming Ceremonies have poems, songs and speeches and where Christenings introduce the Godparents, Naming Ceremonies involve ‘Guide Parents’ or ‘Supporting Adults’. The reason for this is not a religious one, but that it gives structure to the day.

The main traditional reason for having a child Christened is to welcome the child into the Christian church, where by dedicating their commitment to god. As Humanist Naming Ceremonies lack religious involvement, the focus is soley on the child. They welcome the child into the world, celebrating their birth and life. It is also a chance for families to express their devotion and love for the newborn and introduce them to family and friends.

You’re Engaged!!

 

When couples get engaged, it is not always customary to have an engagement party. This really depends on the couple’s preferences. Some, who are planning to have their wedding relatively soon, may opt not to bother having an engagement party as this could be too close to the big day. But many couples do decide to have a engagement party. It’s always nice as an intial celebration for the couple, who have decided to take that next big step together. Also bear in mind that many couples these days choose to have a longer engagement in order to save for an extra special wedding.

The event itself is wholly dependant on the couple. Some may choose a lavish dinner and dance at a nice venue, whilst others may want a more relaxed and informal event such as a garden party. It is also a great opportunity for both families to meet, before the big day. As a method of announcing their engagement to family and friends, couples generally send out a engagement party invitation. Obviously close family and friends, i expect, would be told in person. But for those distant relatives, a invitation is an appropriate method. And just in time for all those recenly engaged couples, Baby Christening Invitations have launched a new selection of Engagement Party Invitations. These engagement cards come in a wide variety of design and colour, so you are sure to find something to suit your taste. The affordable cards come with good quality white envelopes and you can personalise your cards as you wish. So, if you are one of those loved up couples, have a look at the new range, and start planning your celebration.

The Royal Wedding

So, unless you have been hiding under a rock these past few months, you can’t have missed the Royal Wedding madness thats sweeping the nation. Yes, Prince William is marrying his long term girlfriend Kate (Catherine) Middleton this month and newspapers and magazines are going mad, trying to find out all the fine details about the special occasion. Obviously it’s a great occasion, which has been made even better now we all get an extra bank holiday. But with all this hype stirring, I thought I’d search out some of our more regal card designs. Here’s a quick look:

Birthday Party Ideas – Teddy Bear Picnic

Christening Invitations

Cute teddy bear invitations for Boys

Not all birthday parties need to have a theme. Obviously kids will have fun regardless,as long as there are fun activities to keep them distracted. However, as well as themes being a nice idea, they may also make your life a little bit easier. Choosing a set theme gives you structure, direction and boundaries you wouldn’t have if you didn’t theme your party. Take the Fairy Princess theme as an example – immediately you think of pink and purple, so that sorts out your colour scheme. Beyond this, you think of things like wands, tiaras, glitter, Disney,etc. So by setting a theme, it could spark your imagination and allow you to structure the party, which is a good idea if your going to be having loads of children running around your house.

One of my most favorite kids party themes is the ‘Teddy Bear Picnic’. This theme is fantastic for young children up to 5 years old. Because all children this age have a favorite teddy, it’s a nice idea to allow them to bring their teddies along to the party.

Here are some fun ideas to create a great ‘Teddy Bear Picnic:

  • If the weather is nice, have the picnic in your garden, however if the weather isn’t so good, you are better to stay indoors.
  • Lay down a table cloth – red and white checks or polka dots give it an authentic picnic feel.
  • Bring a nice picnic basket- filled with loads of yummy party snacks.
  • Place teddy bears all around the garden/room and dress them up with ties, hats and holding cups, etc.
  • Play themed music such as Bare Necessities, Teddy Bear’s Picnic, and House on Pooh Corner.
  • Make large bear paw prints out of card and dot them about the party area. Alternatively you could have a paw print trail leading from your front door to the garden/party room.
  • Have bear themed food – like gummy bears and ginger bread bears, with a healthy option of course.
  • Play games such as a bear hunt, with paw print trails and clues, or pass the parcel where the winning present is a teddy bear.
  • Read stories like ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ or watch films like ‘Yogi Bear’.

Generally, as this theme caters for younger children up to the age of 5, you shouldn’t have to spend too much money creating the scene because the children are so young, they probably wont take it all in. But, by doing simple things like dressing up and posing teddy bears, you are sure to get a few giggles.

Displayed above is one of our most recent designs. This comes in either Blue or Pink and starts from only 50p per card. If you are considering having a ‘Teddy Bears Picnic’, this card would be great to get the theme going. The great thing about these invitations is that they can be fully personalised, so you can write whatever you like on them.  As well as Birthday Invitations, these cards can be used for any occasion, e.g. for a Christening, Baptism, Naming Ceremony, Birth Announcement or you can even send them as Thank You cards.

The Benefits of Personalised Invitations and Thank You Cards

Is it your birthday soon? Or are you thinking of planning that surprise anniversary party for your parents? Maybe you’ve recently had a child and are considering a Christening to welcome them into the world? Whatever the occasion, one of the first things you will need to do is get some invitations. Because lets face it, what’s a party without the guests?

But, where do you start? With such a variety of invitations to choose from this can be difficult. My advice is to decide first what colour you want your card to be, this narrows the search down. Then consider how many people you are inviting. Now think about what details you need to include e.g. time, date, venue, contact details, etc. My belief is that unless you have flawless handwriting and the patience of a saint, non-personalised standard invitations are probably not for you. From experience, I know that my standard of writing slips after a couple of attempts and spelling/grammer mistakes are easily made. The last thing you want to do is send out invitations with words scribbled out or smudged. Alternatively what I would recommend is personalised invitations. Not only can you include everything you need to say, you can also include a photograph or three to give them that extra special touch. And just think of the time you would save not having to write out each invite individually.

Futhermore, it’s also good to consider those receiving your card.

Wouldn’t they just love it if they received a christening invitation with a picture of your little bundle of joy? Close family members would most likely treasure them as keepsakes.

Take a look at our collection of Personalised Invitations and Thank You Cards. Prices start at just 50p per card. Our cards can be adapted for various occasions and are delivered within 3-4 working days. They can also be personalised with the details of your child’s special day including date, time, venue and RSVP details. You will receive and order confirmation email after you place an order. Photographs to be used on your card should be emailed by reply to this email.
