At-Home Baptism Party in Washington DC

September 26, 2024

At Greta David Events, we don’t just plan weddings—we’re here to help you create unforgettable gatherings for any occasion! Recently, we had the pleasure of planning a beautiful at-home baptism party in Washington DC for twins, and it was the perfect mix of sweet simplicity and celebration.

Simple and Elegant Backyard Vibes

Held in late April, the party embraced the fresh spring air. For the florals, we kept it simple but stunning, using wholesale flowers arranged in mason jars and baskets from Target. The floral baskets added a lovely touch of spring color, perfectly complementing the laid-back, intimate atmosphere of the backyard setting. White linen umbrellas dotted the space, bringing a touch of class to the outdoor affair while providing shade for guests to mingle and enjoy the day.

Self-Catered with a Twist

The clients opted for a self-catered approach, bringing in delicious catering from Chick-fil-A and Whole Foods—perfect for the relaxed vibe of the event. Of course, no celebration is complete without a drink station, and the mimosa bar was a crowd favorite! Guests were able to create their own refreshing drinks while enjoying the relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere.

Fun for the Little Ones

We also made sure the kids had plenty to do! We created a basket full of activities to keep the little ones entertained, so parents could enjoy the celebration without worry. From games to arts and crafts, there was something for every child to enjoy while the adults mingled and celebrated.

Memories to Last

Instead of a traditional guestbook, guests signed picture mattes that will be displayed in the clients’ home—such a personal and meaningful way to capture well-wishes and memories from the day. It was a beautiful keepsake idea that added a unique touch to the celebration.

This backyard baptism party was the perfect example of how small, thoughtful touches can turn any gathering into a special occasion. If you’re planning an intimate celebration and need some help bringing it all together, Greta David Events is here for you! Let’s chat about how we can make your next event one to remember.
