Christening
A christening invitation, and the voices of everyone who was there

One payment. No subscription. No limit on photos or recordings.

How it works
- 1
You create the invitation
Choose a theme, add the date, the church and the reception venue. You get a link and a QR code — the same one that later collects photos and messages.
- 2
You send it as one link
To family, godparents, friends. Everyone opens it on their phone and sees straight away what time the service is and where to go afterwards. They confirm they're coming with one tap.
- 3
It stays after the day is over
Photos from every guest in one place, plus recordings — the voices of grandparents and godparents that you won't be able to capture again in ten years.
An invitation you scroll through
Instead of one image to send round, there are several screens that reveal themselves as a guest scrolls, each with its own watercolour artwork.
Countdown
Exactly how many days are left — the counter runs itself, no input needed from you.
Church and reception
Two addresses, two times, two maps. No one calls asking where to go afterwards.
RSVP
One button. The guest list builds itself, on your side.
What's included
Interactive invitation
Not a file to print. A page guests scroll through — with watercolour artwork, the church time, the reception address and a map nobody has to go digging for in a group chat.
RSVPs
Guests tap to confirm they're coming, right where they're reading the invitation. No more counting heads over the phone.
Voice and video messages
This is the feature that makes it worth it. Grandma records a few words from her own phone, grandad does the same. There'll always be a photo from the day — a voice, only if someone records it.
Time capsule
A guest leaves a message and picks the day it should open — no later than a year from now. Most choose the first birthday.
Photo and video gallery
Everything guests capture on the day, in one gallery, at full quality — not squeezed through a messaging app's compression.
Room for the photographer's photos too
If you've booked a photographer, their photos can go into the same gallery. Family get one link instead of two, and godparents don't need to sign up for anything.
Slideshow at the reception
Photos appear on the TV screen seconds after they're taken. It works better than you'd think at the table — older guests start taking photos once they see their own shots on screen.
The child's photo on the invitation — or just their initial
You can show a photo of the child in the ribbon medallion. You don't have to: without a photo, the initial appears instead, and the invitation looks just as finished. The toggle is in your dashboard, so you can change it even after you've sent the link out.
Photo missions for older kids
A few simple tasks for the afternoon, if there are cousins at the reception. You can leave them switched off entirely.

Frequently asked questions
Will older guests manage this okay?
There's nothing to install and no account to set up. They open the link, or point their camera at the QR code and the page opens itself — just like scanning a code in a shop. Sending a photo works just like sending one in a text message.
Do we need to create an account?
Guests don't. Only you, as the parents, create an account — to manage the invitation and the gallery.
How long do we have access to the photos and recordings?
A year from setup. During that time you can download everything as many times as you like — one by one, or the whole gallery as a single archive. It's worth saving the recordings to your own device, since those are the most precious part.
When does the time capsule open?
On the day chosen by whoever leaves the message — no later than a year afterwards. For a christening, that's usually the first birthday.
Can we add the photographer's photos?
Yes. They're uploaded to the same gallery, through the same page your guests use, so family get everything under one link.
Can we turn off the games for guests?
Yes, every section of the guest page can be hidden in your settings. If you only want the invitation, gallery and messages, the rest simply won't show.
Does this work for other celebrations?
Yes — first birthdays, first communions, any birthday. The invitation theme changes; how it works stays exactly the same.
