When is pasni done for a boy and for a girl?

In many Nepali Hindu families pasni is done in the sixth month for a boy and in the fifth month for a girl, on a day the priest chooses. Families who miss that window often hold it later, in an odd-numbered month.

Who feeds the baby rice at a pasni?

Customs vary by family. The first rice is often fed by a grandparent or the eldest relative present, followed by other relatives. The card does not need to say who; it only names the hosts and the baby.

Can I put the baby’s photo on the pasni card?

Yes. Any pasni template takes a photo, and you can move, crop and resize it on the canvas. Guests see the photo on the cover as soon as they open the link.

What goes on a pasni invitation card?

A pasni card names the parents as hosts and the baby by name, with the Bikram Sambat date, weekday and tithi, the saait set by the priest, and the venue. Most families also give the time of the feast that follows.

Pasni (annaprashan) is the baby’s first taste of rice. Many families time it in the sixth month for a boy and the fifth for a girl, so the card is often made at short notice once the priest fixes the date.

A photo does the work

A pasni card is mostly about the baby. Upload a photo onto the cover and keep the wording short: the hosts, the baby’s name, the date and the place.

Grandparents usually get the first look, so a design with a Devanagari version reads well for elders, and the English date underneath helps relatives abroad.
