This depends on the culture of the family. In true Hispanic families, the godparents pay for any costs to the church, the child's bible, candle, medallion, and baptismal gown/bonnet/shoes, etc. and pay for all or partial costs of a luncheon or dinner party afterwards. Non-Hispanic families usually just pay for the gown, candle, etc. but not "a party" afterwards, even though it is pure etiquette to offer to contribute something towards the celebration such as a cake. Catholic/Christian shops in town are very knowledgeable as to exactly what to buy.

What gifts of grace are received at baptism?

It is the gift of the holy spirit.Roman Catholic Answer:By baptism a child or adult is united to the visible body of the church and so remains until he performs any act which involves his exclusion therefrom (adherence to a non-Catholic body). Baptism by water, blood, or desire is necessary to salvation. The grace thus imparted is that a human being is spiritually regenerated and made capable of receiving the other sacraments. It imprints a "character" on the soul and admits the recipient to membership in the Catholic Church of Christ. From A Catholic Dictionary, 2nd edition, revised, edited by Donald Attwater
