For a First Holy Communion or a confirmation: the church and the time of the Mass, a verse or prayer, and the family celebration after, with a reply card for the head count.
A short guide
Keep it simple and reverent: “Please join us as Mateo receives the sacrament of First Holy Communion.” Then give the church, the Mass time, the celebration afterwards and a reply-by date. A short verse or a line of thanks is a nice touch. A photo of the child can go on the invitation, if you like.
Aim for three to four weeks before the day, once the parish has confirmed the date and time. Because many children in a class receive Communion together, guests may have several invitations for one weekend, so earlier is kinder. If grandparents or godparents will travel, tell them the date by message as soon as you know.
Some parishes do, especially when a large class receives together. Ask how many places your family has, then invite that many people to the Mass by name. Everyone else can be invited to the meal or open house after. A plain line explaining the parish’s limit helps relatives understand it isn’t your choice.
Customs differ by family and parish. Popular choices include a rosary, a children’s Bible, a cross, a keepsake box, a religious book, or money for the child’s savings. The invitation does not need to mention gifts at all. If you would rather guests bring nothing, close with one short, friendly line asking for their presence only.
Guests usually dress as they would for a Sunday service: a dress, a skirt, or smart trousers with a shirt or jacket. The children’s outfits are often set by the parish, with white dresses for many girls and suits for many boys. A short note on the invitation helps anyone unfamiliar with Mass.
