Is it time to baptize your baby?

Don’t be anxious! Things are not as difficult as you think. All it takes is a proper organization.

Let’s find out what’s needed to prepare everything properly

so you and your baby enjoy this special day!

First of all the name!

Don’t go to the church unless you and all (parents, grandparents and especially the godfather) agree to the name. It’s good to know from the beginning the baby’s name, so you will not have surprises that spoil your big day. And, of course, you don’t want to see moody faces in the photos!

2

The right place

The godparent ...

Choosing the right person to baptize your baby is also something you should do early. Because, on the one hand, it is the most basic thing to take care of, and on the other hand, it is good that the baby knows the godparent very well before the day of the mystery. It is very important to feel comfortably in his arms without being afraid.

Keep in mind that it’s a life relationship.

Greek Baptism - 34-

Make sure to choose the church several months before the ceremony, so you can book the date and the time that are the best for you. Otherwise you will have to compromise with the date that is available.

A good solution is to choose your own parish so your baby will not be tired of the distance.

When you book the date in the church, you can ask how many and what kind of supporting documents you will need in order not to run at the last minute. Usually, all that is needed is a copy of a birth certificate of the baby.

The guests

Once you have made the list of your guests (remember to ask mom, mother-in-law and godfather), start choosing the invitations.

You can find a great variety on the market, but if you want something unique and special, you can design it yourself and give it to the professional to make it true. The invitations should be ready soon enough (at least 2 weeks earlier than the ceremony) so your guests will have the time to make their schedule and to respond to your invitation on time. This is very important especially if you have a reception or a children’s party after the baptism.

Greek Baptism - 36-

The godparent’s gift Of course it’s the tradition but also it’s a small “thank you”. It’s the way to show your appreciation to the person who commits with your kid for a lifetime. If you have friendly relationships with the godparent you can simply ask him what he wants more. If your relationship is more formal and the godparent is a man, you can choose a watch for him. If it’s a woman, a beautiful jewel or a full day of relaxation in a spa are the perfect gifts.

Finally, if the godparents are a couple then a trip or something for their home seem a good idea.

Reception, tavern or kid’s party?

After the ceremony, you have to decide how you want to celebrate this special day.

Your choices are too many. First of all, you have to decide how much money you can or want to spend and secondly, what suits you and your guests more. For example, if your guests are mostly adults, a kids’ party is not the best choice.

If you have something more spectacular in your mind then you can visit some estates.

It is the ideal solution as you can have what you want without worrying about it!

Greek Baptism - 38-

Keep the memory

You should take care of your photos and video carefully because they contain your memories. Do a very good research before you choose the right photography studio.

Search the internet, ask friends and people you know and before you decide, have a look at the work of each photographer.

Some professionals offer packages that include everything. Do not forget to ask for a copy of the photos and a DVD for the godparent.

CHOOSE THE

NAME...

It is true that, often, this simple and pleasant process results in a “battle” between the two families. The mom wants to name her precious princess after her own mom and the dad wants the same too. Choosing a name for a baby is a daunting task, considering that the poor little

angel has to live with the choice for the rest of their lives.

T

he Greek tradition believes that the baby’s name must be the same as the grandparent’s. Although, nowadays, the things are different. Some parents want to name their baby after their “favorite” Saint

(George, Nick, Constantine, Helen etc.) or a historical figure (Alexandros, Odysseus, Achilles, Artemis etc) or a flower they love (Rose, Lilly, Iris) or a romantic name (Valentine, Valentina)!

Greek Baptism - 42

The most popular Greek names are:

A wise decision (if this is possible) is to give a name of both mother’s and father’s name so the baby has a combined name.

For example, if one grandmother is called Vassiliki and the other is called Anna then the baby is baptized with the both names and is called Vassiliana (the priest should be informed before the baptism service because sometimes the use of two names is discouraged).

An unusual name is given and both grandparents are happy!

DIVE A baptism is a time to welcome a new baby into the family faith. It is a very special occasion in the life of a family. It is also a very special occasion in the life of the Church.

It is the sacrament which initiates a

making them children of God. Greek Baptism --6062-

he day your baby is going to make the big dip in the baptismal font is full of feelings of charity and great joy or ……not? For the parents, grandparents and loved ones, surely it’s a touching experience but we don’t know for sure about the baby!

The truth is that this day upsets your little angel. Too many things are happening. People are everywhere making too much noise, photographers are trying to get a good photo, his clothes are being taken off…. and a scary person with black clothes and a long beard

Greek Baptism --6264-

is trying to fill his eyes with oil! That’s how the baby feels about this big day. So you, the parents, should make your baby feel as comfortable as possible and enjoy the day of his baptism. Is this easy? Maybe, if you follow some basic rules. First of all, you have

2 0 1 9

to be in touch with the godparent as more often as you can. Invite him many times to your house to hold the baby in his arms, to talk to him, to play with him, to have a good time with him.

This is a way for the baby not to be afraid of his godfather or feel uncomfortable that day.

Ready to ... dive!

The great time has arrived! The priest holds the baby in his hands and drops it in the baptismal font.

For sure the baby starts crying even if it likes the bath generally.

Obviously it’s not the same feeling as being at home with his mom and everything around him is strange and unknown. Hug your baby for a while just to comfort it. It’s a matter of time to be calm and peaceful again.

The “danger” finally has passed and another swimming expedition came to the end with absolute success!

May your child live a healthy life!

Restful and not hungry The baby must be relaxed and not very hungry the time you go to church. Make sure to give him something light to eat, 2 or 3 hours before the ceremony. Not too much food or too less. Also, make certain that your baby will take a nap before going

to church so to feel restful and ready for big adventures! The baptism day is not a good time to talk to every relative or friend you meet because the baby will be annoyed and tired very soon. You don’t want it to start crying and feeling nervous even before the ceremony starts.

CHRISTENING

FAVOURS A baby’s baptism is a very special day for both the newborn and the parents. You are looking forward to celebrating this significant moment with the people you love and to thank them for being a part of this celebration.

So a christening favour or a bomboniere (the Italian name) is the gift

given by you (parents) to your guests.

he christening favours usually include five sugared almonds which symbolize health, happiness, wealth, fertility and long life. Today, the almonds are often replaced with sugar-coated chocolate. The sugar coating is traditionally pink for a girl and blue for a boy. In a christening favour the sugared almonds are put inside a bag of satin or tulle with ribbons in assorted colors usually

pink for girls and blue for boys. Obviously the colors depend on the main color of the baptism so the ribbons can be green, yellow, red, orange, white, with dots and so on.

Often the bag is stored inside a small vessel made of silver, wood, crystal or porcelain.

Depending on your budget, the favour can be as precious or as simple as you wish.

You can choose to buy specially ordered

favours or you can make them at home.

There are so many choices of christening favours so to find which one is more suitable for you is very easy. If you want something special, there is an extensive range of unique and thoughtful bomboniere that can be personalized with the baby’s name or the date of his/her birth or baptism.

Some good ideas for personalized gifts are:

Precious trinket boxes, candles printed with a baby’s photograph, cute teddy bears, wooden rocking horses or wooden chairs, silver brush and comb, cups, napkin rings, jewellery, cutlery gift sets, silver rattles, hand painted frames and boxes and so many others. The christening favour is a small memento of this special occasion so make it special too!

ell known patisseries make beautiful cakes with incredible designs, where imagination and creativity go beyond all limits. The baby may not have an opinion yet but the cake is just for him and all the guests will have a piece for his honor so it has to taste like sweet heaven! Let’s see what we have to keep in mind so to choose the baptism’s cake and to satisfy not

only the adults but the kids too. Don’t forget that the cake is a special dessert, suitable for a special occasion and not as simple or ordinary as a birthday cake.

• Chocolate is always a good choice as everybody loves it. You can combine it with other flavors like fresh strawberries or fruits or cream so you can taste a light dessert without regrets!

Greek Baptism -108- 60-

• Avoid jams for decoration and choose a white icing or any other pastel color. Don’t use too many fruits or too much whipped cream to decorate the cake.

Make it minimal and simply chic. Prefer a colored ribbon or an impressive base to make the difference.

• Another option is to extend the idea of ​​ baby shower and have beautiful cup cakes

to the baptism too. Choose individual small tarts, decorated with icing and colorful sugar. You can order them with the baby’s name on the top and offer them to your guests in the church after the ceremony.

• Invest your money in the quality of your dessert and not the spectacular decoration, because most of your guests will remember the taste and not the appearance…

What are the secrets of choosing the right place for your celebration? Is it a suitable hotel hall, a huge estate or just a place with quality and environment that suit to your desires and needs? We reveal these secrets to you so your decision will be easier….

• The most important thing to keep in mind is that the place you go after the ceremony should not be far away from the church so everyone can go there easily.

• Have a long conversation with the people who are responsible for your reception.

Make a list and inform them about the exact number of your guests.

• Most estates have spacious gardens and a specially landscaped area where the playground is located. The idea of ​​the

Greek Baptism --116 56-

playground seems perfect because all your tiny guests will have something to do without being noisy and annoying. Clowns or people who can take care of the kids are the solution for a relaxing day!

• Also ask if there are small chairs and tables so the kids can enjoy their food (of course an adult supervisor is necessary).

A quiet room is a big bonus because a tired kid may have some rest or get a nap for a while.

• Whatever you decide about your after party, the most certain thing is that the place must suits to your needs. You have to make sure that everybody can have a good time with safety and joyness. A wise choice is to leave the professionals to decide what is best for you because they have the experience to take care of everything. This gives you the opportunity to enjoy your special day without worrying for everybody and everything.

T

he origin of baby shower may be american, but today in Greece more and more companies have a great success because of it. This is happening because the baby shower includes a whole industry of ideas, invitations, gifts, decoration, food and everything you can imagine (and maybe more).

Invite your girlfriends, make a gift list, remember everything you know about babies and prepare yourself to eat and drink (no alcohol please) and have fun. The purpose of the party is not only the good time but the chance for the future mom to have all the necessary staff for her new born baby.

In United States the proper time for the baby shower is 1 – 2 months before the baby comes so the future mom will have enough time to change some of her gifts.

What you need to know ...

Who will be the guests?

Who plans the baby shower?

One of the dearest person of the future mom, usually a sister or a maid of honor or her best friend. Especially if this person is already a mom then she is the perfect choice.

How do you get the right gifts?

There is the possibility to create a list in a baby store. This list includes everything you are going to use especially during the first months of your baby. Some good ideas are: Undershirts, one – piece sleepers with zippers, hats, socks, a bunting bag, cotton blankets, bottles with nipples, baby monitor, diapers, waterproof covers, sleep sack, safety seat for car, toys etc. etc.

Where is going to be?

The best place to have your baby shower is a home but not the future mom’s home.

A restaurant is a good idea but usually a friendly home is the solution.

Usually the guests are only women but sometimes the presence of some men can make the difference…. The woman who plans the baby shower must be very careful not to invite an unwanted person. Of course the invitations should be sent at least 15 – 20 earlier.

What will you offer for food?

Cup cakes with special decoration are necessary for the occasion. Everybody will love them and you can find them in any patisserie. As for the main food, the best option is to have canapés and finger food in general.

Have a great time!!!!
