Choose how it opens, choose the world it moves through, and your guests scroll through eight cinematic chapters. Every design is customised with your names, wording and photos, including your pre-wedding shoot.

Eight chapters, eight camera moves
The Premiere journey tells your invitation in order. Each chapter moves the camera differently, so the scroll never feels repeated. Chapters with no content, such as a gallery with no photos, are left out.

| 1 | Cover | Slow push-in | 0 to 3 s |
| 2 | Blessings | Pan up the sky | 3 to 6 s |
| 3 | Families | Parallax drift | 6 to 9 s |
| 4 | Story | Focus pull | 9 to 12 s |
| 5 | Events | Pan across the scene | 12 to 16 s |
| 6 | Venue | Zoom to the venue | 16 to 19 s |
| 7 | Gallery | Gentle drift | 19 to 22 s |

Questions about Experience invitations
Can a design be customised to my choices?
Yes. Every design is customised for you: your names, wording, languages, accent colour, events, venues and photos. The artwork and layout of the design you pick stay as you saw them, and a fully custom look is part of the Premium package.
Can I add my own photos and pre-wedding photoshoot pictures?
Yes. Your own photos, including pre-wedding photoshoot pictures, go into the gallery of your invitation, and an Experience invitation can give them a photo story of their own. The Standard package includes up to 12 photos and more can be quoted. We resize every photo for fast loading, and you confirm you have permission to use the people and images shown.
How do I send my photos and what quality do they need?
Send them on WhatsApp or email, as original files if you can, at least 1600 pixels on the longer side. We crop and resize them, and you approve the preview before it goes live. Photos are used only to build your invitation, and you can ask us to delete them.
What is an Experience invitation?
An Experience invitation adds an opening effect, such as a lamp being lit or an envelope opening, and an illustrated scrolling journey to your invitation. There are three tiers: Essence with no effect, Unfold with an opener and gentle reveals, and Premiere with a cinematic scroll that has a camera move in every chapter. The extra layer is quoted with your package.
Will an Experience invitation work on older phones and slow networks?
Yes. The effects load only after the guest taps, and the invitation switches to a lighter version on slow connections, low-memory phones, Save-Data mode and for people who prefer reduced motion. If JavaScript is off, the plain invitation still shows everything.
Is the artwork in the Experience scenes original?
The scenes are AI-assisted illustrations that we review for cultural accuracy before use. Similar scenes can exist, so exclusivity is not included unless agreed in writing. The samples on this site use simple placeholder art while the final paintings are prepared.
Does an Experience invitation play music?
Not yet. If music is added later it will be an opt-in button that never plays by itself, and only with recordings we have the right to use.
Can I see my own names in an Experience before I decide?
Yes. Ask for a free sample preview with your names and date. We send it within one working day. It is a preview only: nothing is published and you pay nothing.
See it with your own names
