Never heard that. Do they know you got him all that other stuff?
When me & cousin baptized our little cousin- I bought the outfit, he got the cross & chain- plus we gave him a bunch of little gifts...we were never asked for anything else.
But- when my friend was recently a godmother..the parents asked her to HOST the party!! At a restaurant they chose, with people they invited...they attempted to convince her this was the 'norm'. I told her to tell them NO WAY. They ended up just going out to dinner..the godparents, grandparents, parents and child.
People have some cajones sometimes!
I don't know if they were suggesting that that be the gift- but FH wanted to give her something special to remember the occasion- its just odd- but I guess so are they

Never heard of that. I'm godmother to my BF's daughter and I bought her a cross and a savings bond since she wore her mother's christening gown.

from the Bronx to Peekskill?!!!! Thats crazy, if they want him to get it and pay for it, then they have no say in where its from. I've heard of buying the outfit, but not the cake.

sorry never heard of that and it is rude to tell you and not ask you, maybe its their tradition but they still need to ask you, maybe when they asked him to be the godfather.....

WOW!!! What nerve!! I can't believe they asked him to do that!! I've never heard of that!!! That's ridiculous!!!
WT F!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why did they ask that of him???
they said that they are too busy- only thing is FH lives in the bronx and the bakery that they want him to order it from is in peekskill- about an hour away- so I just suggested he call- but bm & his psycho gf expected him to drive there to pick a cake out- crazy
UMMM hello the Bronx has awesome bakeries! Why cant FH get the cake there,,,,he is paying! These people sound rude with their requests, plus the no invite and its on fathers day...all around UGH!
