In the LDS church, infants are given a blessing and then baptized at the age of 8. Both ordinances are performed by a member who holds the Melchizedek Priesthood, usually the child's father. In the blessing the infant is given his/her name that he/she will be known by. The person giving the blessing also adds words as directed by the Spirit.
The children are dressed in white in a blessing gown or blessing outfit. The blessing dresses and suits are keepsakes that will be handed down from generation to generation.
Celestial Fashions offers fashionable and affordable blessing gowns and suits that will last for years to come.
