Re: Baptism

We really didn't do anything decor-wise. We figured we'd save the table space for food! For favors we gave out small pictire frames (for wallet sized photos) that we got from Michaels for both of my dd's. Both wore my old dress I was baptized in.

All this, minus the wine and centerpieces because I'm cheap.

Favors- Hershey Bars with custom wrappers
Centerpieces- none. At least I dont' think I did any. I don't think it's necessary. I'd rather spend the money on upgraded food or a bar package. People care about that more than centerpieces, trust me.

Decor- none. The place let us pick the table cloth and napkins colors but I didn't decorate the room or anything.

Entertainment- none. We sat and ate and drank


My sis, the God Mother, bought the dress. It was from BRU

i cant help with the dress because its been in my family for 47 years.

CPs we didnt do tables but get some glass vases from Dollar Tree or something and put some fake flowers.

Favors - chocolate lollipops

decor, we kept it simple. just colored table cloths and my niece made a banner that said God Bless Jillian Grace

no entertainment. All the kids just played with each other.

Outfit- DS got from Sears, DD's was my niece's dress that my sister let me use.

Favors- DS we had chocolate covered oreos, DD we did cake pops

CP- DS we did balloons, DD I made my own floral CP's

Entertainment- For DS I did not get entertainment, space was tight and there were only babies in the family, for DD I hired a children's entertainer for an hour that did face painting, balloon animals, etc.. The venue had more space and we had a lot of kids 5 and under.
