Baptism & Christening Flowers and Gifts Delivery

Baptism flowers celebrate new life

Baptism flowers can adorn the Church or the home--flowers have been used for religious and spiritual ceremonies around the world because they represent growth and rebirth. Sending baptism floral arrangements helps to celebrate this important sacrament--as the priest pours water over the infant's head, it symbolizes the child entering into the faith of their parents, godparents, and the Church.

Something special for the parents

Sending christening flowers is a beautiful way to celebrate the sacrament of baptism and the child's spiritual journey. Consider also an elegant bouquet of roses for the mother of the child. Red roses often celebrate a formal event or turning point in a person's life. However, white roses are also an exceptional choice to commemorate a baptism. White symbolizes purity and innocence, the qualities celebrated at a christening. In the Catholic faith, white lilies often represent the Virgin Mary. 

Consider a delicate bouquet with pink roses as a focal point. Or an arrangement with the unexpected beauty of roses, larkspurs, hypericum berries, Queen Anne's Lace, and Limonium. These lovely gifts will add to the joy of the occasion and can grace the reception hall or the home.

Baptism & Christening FAQ

Which flowers best signify a baptism?

Many flowers are appropriate to celebrate a christening, especially those with a springtime palette. White is the primary color associated with baptism when choosing christening flower arrangements. These can include baby's breath, carnations, orchids, hydrangeas, and calla lilies that will match the baby's gown. When sending a baptism gift, a pop of pastel, like soft pinks or baby blues, can make your arrangement stand out.

What is an appropriate christening gift?

Flowers are always welcome, but Proflowers can also deliver delicious fruit and cheese crates if you'd like to add something more substantial to your well-wishes. Delicious arrays of sweets are also a pleasant surprise for a christening—for example, a basket of baked goodies will make everyone happy. Baptism gifts or christening gifts can also include keepsakes such as picture frames or photo albums.
