Marigold
A garland and toran at the head of the page, drawn as geometry.
About this design
A garland across the top and a toran hung at the head of the page, drawn as botanical geometry rather than as photographs of flowers. Warm by construction: the marigold is what a doorway wears on the morning of almost every occasion in this taxonomy, which is also why the family suits so many groups and leads none of them.
Both Homes
Navy and marigold, with the tricolour and the stars as accents, never flags.
About this design
Navy and marigold, with the tricolour and the stars and stripes used as accents rather than as flags — the design language of a household that is both, which is most of this audience. It is what a citizenship party, a Friendsgiving and a Diwaloween invitation get, and it is deliberately not a flag mashup: the two palettes meet in the type and the rule, and neither one wins.
Playful
Balloons, paper and a diagonal; the age as a sticker.
About this design
Confetti, balloons and a very heavy display face set tight. The children's family, and the only one whose type is allowed to be this loud. It carries five palettes rather than three because a child's birthday is the one occasion where the host has a colour in mind before they have anything else.
Indigo Block Print
One small block printed edge to edge in indigo, as in Rajasthan.
About this design
Block print: one small repeating unit, printed edge to edge, in a single indigo on undyed cloth. The calmest family here and the one that suits an event nobody wants to look festive — a study circle, a professional meetup, a farewell. Its restraint is a different restraint from kasavu's: kasavu removes ornament, indigo repeats one piece of it until it becomes texture.
Warli
From the Warli people of Maharashtra: white figures on clay, gathering and dancing.
About this design
Circles, triangles and stick figures in white on clay — the painting tradition of the Warli people of Maharashtra. It is indigenous art with a Geographical Indication, so it is named here and everywhere it renders, never described as folk art or as an Indian pattern; a family that borrows a protected tradition and declines to say whose it is has taken something. The figures are the tradition's own vocabulary of people farming, dancing and gathering, which is why it suits a community potluck better than a wedding.
Usually a clubhouse, at home and a park, for the wider community, family and the children. Around the festivals, mostly. Free invitation designs with RSVP and calendar, and no account for your guests.
Each one is a different visual tradition rather than a recolour of the same card. Tap a colour underneath to change the palette; every design carries your own wording, date and place.

Diwali at the clubhouse
Six o'clock at the clubhouse. Potluck — put your dish in the sheet so we do not get nine biryanis.
Questions people ask
- Do my guests need an account?
- No, and they never will. A guest opens the link, types their name and taps Going, Maybe or Can't go. No password, no phone number, no app. If a page ever asks your guests for a password, it is not us.
- Can I text my guests?
- Only the ones who asked to be texted. A guest gives a number on their own — on our page, never yours — and confirms it with a six-digit code before we will send anything. You never see the number. Texts are limited to three per event so an invitation cannot become a mailing list, and cancelling or moving an event is never counted against that.
- Does it work in WhatsApp?
- That is what it is built for. Pasting the link shows a picture of the invitation with the date and who is hosting, before anybody taps — and the page opens in whatever browser your guest has, on any phone, including the ones that are not iPhones.
- Can guests add it to Google Calendar?
- Google, Apple, Outlook and anything else that reads a calendar file. There is a button on the invitation itself, and it works before anybody answers. If you change the time or the place afterwards, their existing entry updates — it does not add a second one — and cancelling removes it.
