    Baptism - What to Wear?

    I haven't been to a baptism before and wondered what is acceptable to wear? Can DH wear jeans?

    i had dd christened in a church an i wore a dress.. pple wore dress pants and button up tops... not sure if any one wore jeans.. i dont see y not if hes comfy?
    just ask the person holding the ceremony if the mind what u wear- if they didnt state it on invite it shouldnt be too much of an issue

    We have been to a lot of baptisms and I tend to find that if it is in a church most men wear pants of some sort, very rarely will we see anyone wear jeans.

    We went to one recently. DF wore jeans and he wasnt the only one to do so. Only the parents and god parents were dressed up.
