What do Godparents pay for at a Catholic baptism?
Who covers the expenses for a baptism?
There typically very few costs for the actual Baptism ceremony, however there may be costs that arise with a reception after. Traditionally, these expenses are to be covered by the parents but some Godparents may choose to chip in. Godparents do often purchase a gift for the individual that is being baptized. Some of our best recommendation for baptisms include:
​
-
A customized cross or crucifix
-
A framed bible verse
-
A photo of their patron Saint
