Christening wishlist
Wishlist for the christening
Something that lasts. And something that helps.
People like to give something lasting at a christening. Nobody knows what is already there.
A list makes it visible. Godparents, grandparents and guests see what is missing and agree without a single phone call.
Here is how
Start a list
Pick an occasion, give it a name. Done.
Collect wishes
Paste a link. We do the rest.
Share the link
Share it with friends and family - that is it.
Lasting and practical
Mix both. A piece of jewellery or a book for later, next to what is needed this month.
Names and dates belong in the note if something is to be engraved.
Examples
Just examples. What goes on the list is up to you.
- Children's bibleto read aloud, age three and upapprox. €25
- Silver chainplain, engravedapprox. €60
- Photo bookfor the first yearapprox. €40
- Savings for latera small amount is fineopen
- A godparent daya fixed date, just the two of youpriceless
Three small things that matter
- Note the engraving detailsName and date in the note. Otherwise the question comes anyway.
- Mix the price rangesGodparents often give more than the rest. Both belong on the list.
- Share earlyEngraving takes time. Four weeks is not a luxury.
Wishes for children
A profile inside the parent's account. No e-mail of their own. Parents decide what gets shared.
Common questions
Is a christening wishlist impolite?
No. Most guests ask anyway. A list is the polite answer to that.
Can we include money gifts?
As a wish without a price, yes. Ludowish handles no payments and wants no bank details.
Do the godparents see what the others give?
Yes. Every guest sees the same view. The parents do not.
Can we keep the list small?
Yes. Shared by link only, nobody else sees it.
Does this work for a confirmation too?
Yes. Change the occasion, adjust the title, done.
What happens to the list afterwards?
Archive it. It stays, and it is the template for the next occasion.
Wish lists for every occasion
Write it once, then quiet
Create the list, send the link to godparents and family. The rest sorts itself out.
