A christening gown is an infant’s dress which is especially made and worn for the baptism ceremony. These gowns are usually white in color and are very long. They are made of linen, silk or cotton and have lace trimmings, embroidery and tucks. They also have matching bonnets, bibs and booties. The baby girls of today are lucky indeed as they can be dressed in a wide range of gowns. All the gowns come with a matching bonnet, but you also have the choice to opt for matching personalized bib and booties.

Here is a list of just some of the christening and baptism accessories you might want to add to your baby’s outfit.

• Bonnet – A christening gown is only truly complete with the wearing of an adorable bonnet, perhaps one with a cross embroidered on it.

• Shoes and Socks – To truly have your baby looking beautiful from head to toe, you’ll need shoes and socks that are meant especially for this occasion usually showcasing a cross design.

• Blanket or Shawl – This will not only complement your baby’s outfit but will also add warmth.

• Jewelry – It’s amazing the tiny infan t sizes available for necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings. A cross necklace, for instance, will accessorize the gown and make a treasured keepsake.

• Bib – A personalized bib is essential for protecting the gown from stains so it can be properly preserved.

• Towel – An embroidered baptism towel is another accessory. It might be able to be used during the actual ceremony and then kept as a souvenir.
