Video transcript

A baptism invitation tells guests which child is being welcomed, when and where the celebration takes place, and how to reply.

Guests look for four things first: the child's full name, the date, the place and the reply deadline. Place each one near the top, where it is easy to spot at a glance.

Many guests open invitations on a phone while doing something else, so short lines work better than long paragraphs. Name the child and the reason for the gathering, and skip extra adjectives.

Thank the godparents and grandparents by name, but keep the list short so the card stays easy to read. Ask your godparents to agree to the wording before anything is printed or sent.

A digital invitation can hold the map, the music and the countdown behind one link. Guests can open everything without leaving the page, and RSVP tracking shows who has confirmed.
