To think having our Christening party in a pub is odd?

[Strawberryteddybear]

We ideally want a community hall, but there are none local to our church that are available. Ones that are available are a car ride away and as some of our guests won't be driving, I think its unfair for us to expect them to get a bus/taxi.

There is a nice pub within walking distance that have a function room available, and is perfect. It doesn't really bother me or Dp but it feels weird and I don't know if our guests would be like .

AIBU? Or am I just thinking too much about it?

20 yrs ago, we had a joint christening in a pub afterwards with SIL & Her SIS and 5 babies were christened together- joint families and its was a hoot- well that was just the karaoke!! yes it was that classy LOL!!

All the christening a I've been to have had. Do in the pub x

We had both of ours in a pub, it was great!

We had dd1 baptised and then rolled down the hill to the function room in the pub at the bottom. Was perfect :)

Very common actually
