Spring and early summer are the busiest christening months, with a lift around Easter.
Buying notes
- Choose breathable fabrics. Christenings often mean a warm church and a long lunch.
- A waistcoat and trousers set is practical for babies; sizing in months matters more than age.
- White and cream are traditional, but any smart colour works. Check with the parents if you are a guest.
