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.
Modern
A clean sans, a two-column split, one accent rule, no ornament.
About this design
A clean sans, a two-column split, one accent rule and no ornament. Built for the invitations where a cultural motif would be wrong rather than merely unnecessary — a networking mixer, a product launch, a team lunch — and for the American holidays this community celebrates without wanting them decorated as Indian.
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.
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.
Ticket
A perforated ticket with the fixture as the headline.
About this design
A ticket: perforated edge, uppercase condensed type, the fixture where the headline goes. Built for cricket — the research found watch parties to be one of the largest occasions with zero coverage anywhere — and it works for a Super Bowl party or a run-club race day without changing anything, because the shape of the information is the same.
With your photo
These leave room for a picture of your own, added when you make the invitation.
Circle of Light
Add a photo
A photo in a lit circle, ringed in the accent, words beneath.
About this design
A photograph in a circle, ringed in the accent and lit from behind by a soft halo, the invitation set underneath in a rounded, friendly display face. Built for a child in a portrait: the crop is placed by one tap on the face and never by a face model. Without a photo the circle carries the family's confetti and balloons, which is how the gallery shows the slot without a placeholder face.
Photo
Add a photo
Your photograph on its own plate; the words beside it, never over it.
About this design
One photograph full-bleed on the split plate, the invitation set beside or beneath it in a quiet serif. The plate holds the picture and nothing else — no words ever sit on it — so the photo is framed by the palette rather than written over. It is the host's own photo, copied once with its location and camera details removed; guests' photos are never stored.
Your Artwork
Add a photo
Your own picture edge to edge; the words on a solid band below.
About this design
Your own picture edge to edge, with the invitation set beneath it on a solid band in a quiet condensed face. Made for a host who already has a card they love: the look is theirs and the words are ours, so the date can still be corrected at the same address after the picture has been forwarded. The band is the palette's own paper at full strength, never a veil over the picture, so nothing a guest reads is ever read through somebody's photograph.
Usually at home, a clubhouse and a park, for the children, family and friends. Any time. 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.

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.
