it What style do I have as a mother? Do I prefer minimalism or do I love delicate and romantic things?

it Where will the baptism take place – outdoors, at a restaurant, or in the family's home?

it What are my favorite colors or what inspires me visually?

Choose a theme that makes you smile from the bottom of your heart, not just one that's "trendy." At the end of the day, what matters is that it's all about you, your family, and the joy of this unique moment.
