Holly I am catholic and although I don't go to church every sunday (or very often for that matter!) I had DD christened. It was a requirement to have at least one godparent and yes BG is right, one of the godparents has to be catholic. You don't have to go to a catholic church, you should go somewhere where both you and Matt are comfortable and understand the implications of the ceremony.

I think if you really want your mum as godparent then you should do it! Your daughter and your decision, Matts parents will just have to get over it lol! Maybe they could be involved in something else on the day? Like doing a reading, helping to dress Mia........just a thought?
