The White Rose Posy: a christening invitation template
The florist's bench on the christening morning: a white rose opens in its bud vase, and the posy is made as you read, a rose set in for each godparent.
The design
A sheet of kraft paper on the florist's bench, seen from above, with everything on it modelled and rendered: the service is written up on the carbon order docket, the child's particulars are pencilled beside the stems cut for the posy, each godparent has a rose set into the posy, the day is the second sheet of the order pad, the verse is printed on satin, photographs stand on wire picks, questions are on the flower-care card, and the reply is the gift card that goes in with the wrapped posy.
Colours and type
The White Rose Posy comes in 3 colourways: White rose, sage ribbon, White rose, dusty rose ribbon and White rose, powder-blue ribbon, with 2 type pairings: Fraunces & Spectral and Piazzolla & Crimson Pro. The colours and type change in the editor at any time; the layout stays its own.
Who it suits
Made for christening / baptism, baby dedication and naming day, in the Floral & botanical style.
What is included
An invitation website with the church and the celebration after, the godparents, your photos, a song if you want one, and the RSVP with the number of adults and children coming. You write your own words and add your photos in the live editor, send every guest a personal link by email or any messaging app, and follow the replies as they come in. Free for up to 20 guests, with the full design.
More christening templates
- The Garden Gate: A garden painted in oils as your guests walk in: the white gate swings open onto lunch under the willow, the blossom drops its petals over the godparents' bench, a robin splashes in the bird bath, and the little tree planted for your child takes everyone's ribbon.
- Meadow at Knee Height: A walk through a spring meadow at knee height: grass sways all round the words, daisies open as you reach each part, and a dandelion clock waits by the reply.
- In the Olive's Shade: A lime-washed chapel wall in an olive grove, an olive branch swaying over the child's name and its shadow moving across the whole invitation.
- Pressed in Spring: A herbarium sheet: spring flowers are laid down one by one under glassine and the specimen label types itself; guests open the flower press, look through the hand lens and lay a flower of their own.
- The Shallows: Clear, shallow sea seen from above: small fish school over rippled sand, a turtle drifts by, and the child's name floats on the surface, its shadow on the sand below.
- First Light: A valley at dawn, painted wet in watercolour as you watch: the sun dropped into a rose and gold sky, ridge behind ridge, and a butterfly resting on a painted cosmos.
- Wet Watercolour: A sheet of cold-press paper that paints itself: drops of pigment fall, bloom and dry into flowers around the child's name, and the guest gets to paint too.
