Re: Godparent gifts

I don't know I have been a Godmother twice and never received a gift. Dh is a Godfather to two children also and he has not received any gifts either.

REALLY!
Wow!

I thought it was an honor and you present a gift from the baby as a thank you? Like being MOH or Best Man.

Both got customized frames with a saying on one side and pic. on the other side (if I remember correctly). Godfather- The Godfather DVD collection. Godmother-Bracelt engraved with the saying Bella Zietta.

As a godmother I received a frame and my husband received a business card holder.

Re: Godparent gifts

I have been godmother 3 times, DH has 2 god children (can't remember what he got if anything).

For one I didnt receive anything.
The others I got a glass "box" with a plaque on it saying #1 Godmother (kinda looks like a Things Remembered item)
I also received a picture frame that says My GodChild in it and has a picture of my nephew in his Christening outfit.

I don't know. I guess I always thought being chosen Godparent was the gift. I suppose you could do a frame with picture of them and baby at the Christening.

Re: Godparent gifts

I did, cause I wanted to.

I gave both a frame w/DD christening pic and the godmother was my sis, a swarovski bangle and the godfather, The Godfather t-shirt, he thought that was funny.
