Gifts, Details, and Decoration for Baptisms and Communions
Gifts, favors, and decoration for baptisms and communions
Baptism is an intimate event for family and godparents. Communion is a large celebration with guests. Although the nature is different, the pattern for organizing the favor is similar: favors for guests, symbolic gift for godparents, and space decoration. I’ll show you how to put each together without spending double separately.

The most common trap is buying favors by separate categories: favors for guests on one side, godparents’ gifts on another, decoration on another. Each purchase includes shipping costs, production times, and above all, a lack of visual coherence.
The sensible way is to organize the set with a common aesthetic line (color, typography, motif) and produce it all at once. At Picasita, if you order favors + decoration + godparents’ gifts in the same order, we apply a combined discount and everything comes with the same aesthetic. One delivery, one production deadline.
For baptism, the most typical format is remembrance cards (50-80 units), decorative candles, and a symbolic gift for the godparents (usually a rosary or a framed date). For communion, we add broader formats: place cards, table decoration, favors for the invited children.

Frequently asked questions
How many invitations should I calculate per guest for a baptism or communion?
1 invitation per invited family unit, not per individual person. That is, if you invite a couple with two children, they get 1 invitation (not 4). For single guests, 1 per person. Also, calculate an extra 10-15% for unforeseen needs.
What is usually given to godparents at a baptism?
The most common: a rosary (wood, silver, or cord with beads), a framed crucifix with the baptism date, or a framed signature of the rite. The important thing is that it’s a keepsake, not for use (the rite is the thing).
For communion, what do godparents usually give the child?
Tradition varies greatly by family and region. In Catalonia, it’s usually a watch or chain. In Andalusia/Levante, a family jewel or medal. In the north, a book or pen. Any durable personalized object works if the family approves.
Do you make personalized decoration for the event space?
Yes. Welcome signs, place markers, table signs, banners with the name. If you order invitations and decoration at the same time, everything comes with the same style and combined discount.
Can eco-friendly invitations be made?
Yes, in the "seed" format: a recycled cardboard holder with seeds that the guest plants. The traditional printed design is also available on FSC-certified recycled paper.
What if the celebration is for twins or a double communion?
We organize the invitations and decoration with both names and the shared date. We apply a 15% discount on the total for being a single double order.
