What we provide
A calm christening party, without running around town
The hall, tables, a place for the cake and a terrace in one place, in central Bydgoszcz. You spend the day with your baby and family, not on logistics.
⛪
Straight from church
We set the hire hours around the time of the christening, so the hall is ready when you arrive with your guests. Guests can park next to the building.
🕊️
A hall just for your family
No strangers at the next table. You set the pace of the party, and with a little one it is easy to take a break for a nap or a walk on the terrace.
🎂
A table for the cake
We set up a separate table for the cake and sweets. You can bring your own cake, and candles on the cake are fine.
🍽️
Lunch on request
If you wish, our catering prepares lunch and dessert with a menu to suit the party, at an extra charge. You can also bring your own food and drinks.
📸
Photos on the terrace by the Brda
The 100 sqm terrace by the river is a good spot for a family photo with the baby and the godparents.

First birthday here too
