Cute & Thoughtful Ways to Ask Someone to Be Your Baby’s Godparent

Choosing godparents is a meaningful decision—these are the people who will play a special role in your child’s life. Once you’ve chosen, the fun part is asking them in a way that feels heartfelt and memorable. Here are some adorable and creative ways to “pop the question.”

1. Ask with a Keepsake Card

Sometimes, the simplest gestures make the biggest impact. Our popular Ulluv “Will you be my Godmother/Godfather?” cards are a beautiful way to ask the question. They make a lovely keepsake that your chosen godparent can treasure forever. And, following numerous customer requests, we now have a "Will You be my Guideparent?" card available from the website!

2. Wrap Up a Surprise Gift

Consider gifting a small keepsake—like a framed sonogram photo or a candle—that reveals the question when opened. It’s both personal and thoughtful.

3. Bake the Question In

If you’re handy in the kitchen, bake cupcakes or cookies with “Will you be my Godparent?” iced on top. Sweet, simple, and guaranteed to spark happy tears.

4. A Godparent Reveal Box

Fill a little box with baby-themed goodies—a dummy, socks, or a tiny vest—with a note at the bottom asking the big question.

5. A Personalised Keepsake

Order a custom ornament, mug, or keyring that reads “Godmother/Godfather to be.” Every time they see it, they’ll be reminded of the special bond.

6. Hide the Surprise in a Storybook

Give them a classic children’s book with a handwritten message inside the cover saying, “Will you read this to your godchild one day?” It’s sentimental and doubles as a keepsake for your baby’s future.

7. A Godparent Proposal Brunch

Host a relaxed brunch and serve drinks in a personalised mug or glass with “Will you be my Godmother/Godfather?” printed on it. Watch their face light up when they realise!

8. A Puzzle Reveal

Gift them a custom jigsaw puzzle that, once pieced together, reveals the question. It’s playful, creative, and makes for a memorable moment.


Making It Personal

However you decide to ask, the most important thing is that it comes from the heart. Whether through a keepsake card, a fun puzzle, or a thoughtful brunch, your chosen godparents will be touched to know just how much they mean to you and your growing family.
