Hi girls,

Not sure if this is the right place to introduce the thread, so Mods if you need to move it to another section feel free.

Im catholic and we are organising a christening for Julia early November. DH and I were chatting last night and wondering who to invite. We have 4 godparents, 2 on my side of family and 2 on his side.

Our question is how many friends do you invite? Is this going to turn out to be a big affair like our wedding and have our parents involved asking if they can invite family friends? If this is the case would you opt for a small "family only" christening? This is the way we are thinking. And then having a little gathering afterwards at our place, or lunch at a restaurant we can sit outdoors with our little one to celebrate.

What did you guys do? Which is better? lots of people eg, say around 40 people or around 15-20 people (mostly family).

Thanks girls
