Open with Love

First Light: an animated christening invitation

A single candle and a soft golden glow, for a quietly beautiful christening or baptism. Elegant and timeless.

How it opens

A christening candle is lit in the dark, and its warm glow spreads to reveal your card. Guests tap the invitation in the message you send them and it opens on their phone, then they reply in a few taps.

Two versions

There are two versions: service and celebration in ivory & gold, and evening celebration in candlelit navy. Send one, or both to different guests.
