What to wear to christening?

What to wear to christening?

Postby streaks » Fri May 04, 2022 12:00 pm

It's on quite early and I'm not sure whether jeans, white top and blazer would be better than a dress? Kinda hard to know. Don't want to be ott but wouldn't like to be underdressed. What's the norm to wear to christenings these days? Dress/jeans&top?

Personally I wouldn't wear jeans to a Christening but that's me.

Is it a group christening where a few babies are being baptised or a private one with just the one baby ? Do you have a role in the Christening ?

I wouldn't wear jeans to a christening, I think it's a bit too casual. I'd be more likely to wear a dress (if it's very early, maybe dressed down with flats) or else a pair of linen trousers and a nice top?

Hi,I would say no to blue or black jeans but yes to white or coloured jeans as they can look quite dressy. I would recommend a maxi dress & blazer, its not too dressy & you dont have to worry about heels & tan, etc & you wont feel too dressed up as its early.
