Armenian Baptism Invitations for christening ceremony.
Baptisms are always very important occasions, for some cultured even more than for others.
In an Armenian family the baptism is a very big event.
This is the moment when the child is presented in front of god for the first time. The Armenian christening differs in a few ways from catholic baptisms.
In the Armenian baptism ceremony the child is presented as a gift of god in front of those gathered. This is a very important step for the family. During the ceremony a special cord called Narod is used, made up of two different colored cords that are braided into one.
The red color symbolizes sacrifice while the white color stands for purity. Remember the symbolism of these two colors when you start looking for baptism invitations in the stores or for free printable invitations online.
If you decide to print your own invitations you can look for photos with a red and white cord, or just use the colors symbolically. It is easy to change the templates of free printable invitations that you find on websites. Often you can also personalize the cards by changing their color for example.
A lot of people look for invitations in paper stationary stores and other shops, but if you are looking for something specific such as an Armenian baptism invitation, it is better to look online. After you chose a suitable template and fitting colors, you can also add the photo of your baby or use cute baby photos that you can find online.
Quotes and verses are always relevant to be on an invitation. A lot of people actually find their favorite sayings and lines from the bible or religious songs, and add these to the template of the invitations. If you put enough though into the invitations they can also be nice gifts for the guests, similar to baptism party favors.
