Wasn't quite sure where to put this but I'd like some advice in wording for a request for charitable donations in lieu of gifts for a naming ceremony. I'm terrible with wording and I don't want it to sound too "up herself" IYKWIM.
This is what I have so far:
We would be honoured to have you present to celebrate DD’s arrival and no gifts are necessary as we have all we could want in our happy, healthy family of four.
If you would like to give a gift, please consider making a donation to a charity that helps those not as fortunate as us.
I thought about including some example charities but I think that should be up to the individual. Of course we don't mind if people don't make a donation just don't want to end up with millions of money boxes again!
