Tauf-Einladungs-Etikette 2026

A baptism is a deeply meaningful occasion, and the invitation should reflect both the spiritual significance and the joy of the celebration.

Traditional baptism invitations name the parents and godparents. For example: "Maria and Alexandru, together with godparents Elena and Andrei, joyfully invite you to the baptism of their son, David."

Include the church name and address, the ceremony time, and reception details if applicable. Many families host a celebration after the ceremony - mention this on the invitation so guests can plan accordingly.

Digital baptism invitations are increasingly popular, especially for families with relatives abroad. They allow real-time RSVP tracking and can include maps, parking information, and dietary preference collection for the reception.

Remember to send invitations 3-4 weeks before the event. For destination baptisms, give guests 6-8 weeks notice to arrange travel.
