Baptism Invitation Wording with Godparents Names: Order and Examples

Video transcript

Your baptism invitation names the child, the parents, and the godparents, and guests read those names closely. Here is how to order them and send one link to everyone.

Godparents are named on the card because they hold a formal role in the ceremony. Guests who know the family often expect to see those names.

Start with the child, then the parents, then the godparents. This order is easy to read aloud and keeps the focus on the child.

Use full names on the card. A nickname can appear in brackets for close family, but it may confuse guests who do not know the child well.

A digital invitation lets you share one link with everyone and follow replies in one place. Every guest opens the same page, which also shows a countdown and a map.
