If you have decided to have your baby christened then this can be a very important day not just for your little one but for the whole family. Some parents decide to Christen their child in a very traditional way where as others like to modernise it a little bit. Regardless of the sex of the baby, traditionally christening gowns were very long white dresses, but over the years many parents have opted for something a little different as a long white dress is often not very practical for a baby to wear.
If you still want to stick with the white theme, then you may choose a shorter white dress for a girl or a suit style outfit for a boy. If you think a gown is too traditional and a suit too formal, a smart romper suit for your baby boy could be the best option especially if they are quite young. It may be that you are not too worried about them wearing all white and opt for a pastel coloured outfit instead.
You may choose to have a very traditional outfit for the ceremony but then a more relaxed and comfortable look for the reception afterwards. This will allow you to have the best of both worlds and means you can get some beautiful pictures of your baby in their attire.
