Are you planning a child's First Communion party? If you are you're likely planning a large guest list with friends from the Church coming, members of your family, your child's friends, teachers and other children in their class, then you might want to use First Communion invitations with the rest of your party. First Holy Communion invitations are a token of appreciation to those that attended, as well as a reminder of the date, time and place of the party.

If you want something that looks beautiful and rather traditional for your 1st Holy Communion invitations then you can go with 1st Communion invitations on cardstock with scripted fonts and fancy lettering. You can find these traditional invitations online, or if you need them quickly at your local printing shop.

If your party will be more festive you may want to go with a brighter, more colorful First Communion invite. You can choose from a variety of colors and styles. Many parents choose blue or pink for their First Communion invites either because that is the theme of the party, and the color of the dresses, or because the colors look great on invitations.

Many people also choose religious symbols as part of their invitations such as being in the shape of the face of Christ, or bearing a picture of Him, or perhaps with a popular portrait of the Last Supper. You'll find many ideas and themes that will inspire you for your party.

You'll want to include names and and dates on your invitations of course, with the Child's name who is receiving it on their, perhaps their age and the date ... time of the party. You may also want to include a map so that people can find the party, especially if it is at a location other than your home like a public park. Also include a phone number in case there are any questions.

In our modern world it makes sense to set up your First Communion Party Invites as a website, after sending them out initially. That way, you can inform guests of any changes, or make your own gift registry. If the party is a potluck you can have a section where people can sign up to bring something.

This will allow guests to simply visit the site and save you money and time on both postage stamps and phone calls. You can have them RSVP with their email address and then send an email if something drastic changes. This will save you and your guests a lot of time and websites are simply and sometimes free in our modern world.

Your child's First Communion is a holy time, filled with family, friends and the Holy Spirit. You'll want to make sure that you invite those who attend church with you as well as relatives and friends, as well as your child's classmates or teachers if appropriate.

However you do it, make sure that the First Communion Celebration is fun for all, and a memorable experience. Your child is entering into covenants with Christ and becoming an official part of the church and you'll want to make the occasion as special as possible. Choosing the right party invitations is the perfect way to thank guests for attending, and to provide keepsakes that will last a lifetime.
