Digital invitation: baptism lunch at a restaurant
A digital invitation for a baptism lunch gets the restaurant's headcount in one link — confirmations land in order, and you can change the time without resending

The restaurant wants the menu closed on Friday. The godparents haven't confirmed, your uncle keeps asking what time lunch is, and the family group chat is three screens of maybe. A digital invitation for a baptism at a restaurant puts the date, the RSVP deadline and the menu note in one link you can create and send today from the catalogue.
It won't pick the fish or the vegetarian plate for your guests. It does give the restaurant a number on time and keeps every confirmation in one ordered list inside the same invitation, so you stop counting messages.
A digital invitation closes the baptism restaurant list before the menu
Write the deadline on the cover, with the day and the time: 'Confirm by Friday 12, 8pm.' The restaurant does not need a perfect number. It needs a number before the kitchen order goes in. Confirmations land in a list inside the invitation, and you can see who has replied without chasing each person. Be straight about the limit: the RSVP does not collect dish choices or allergies. Put the two menu options in the dinner scene and add a phone number or email for that detail. If the godparents ask 'what about the menu?', the link already answers: table time, restaurant address and what they need to confirm.
- The confirmation deadline on the cover, with day and time: 'Confirm by Friday 12, 8pm.'
- The restaurant's full name, the real lunch time (1:30pm, not 'midday') and a map link for anyone who does not know the area.
- The menu options in a scene, with a phone number or email for choosing a dish and flagging allergies.
- The link saved in the family WhatsApp group, plus the QR for anyone who would rather scan it.
Digital invitations for a baptism lunch: godparents confirm from a phone
Share the link in the family group and let people open it when they can. Digital invitations open in any browser. No app, no password, no 'download this first'. The uncle confirming from the car, the grandmother opening it on the living-room tablet and the cousin abroad all see the same version.
Keep a few printed copies for the people who will pin it to the fridge or keep it in a drawer. Send the link to everyone else. That is the honest mix: paper for the keepsake, one live link for the details that can change.

The link stays in the same place. The list, the time and the menu note move with it.
Change the time or the restaurant without resending the invitation
If the restaurant moves lunch from 1pm to 2pm, edit the scene. The link stays the same, so nobody gets a second message with a correction. The dress code you forgot, the parking note or a new line about the menu can go in later, and every guest sees the updated version. No reprint, no second envelope.
What a digital baptism invitation costs — and what goes in each scene
The price is €29.99 for one invitation, paid once, with no subscription. You can try the cover free, then unlock all the scenes when you buy. Use the cover for the baby's name, the date and a photo you can swap when you have the good one. In the dinner scene, write the restaurant's exact name, the real time and the menu. Add the map, a photo of the room and up to six own photos across the invitation. If you have family in France or Brazil, set the invitation in French or Portuguese; the site runs in seven languages. What it does not do: print, post, collect menu choices, allergies or cots. Those go in a call to the restaurant or a separate note. Guests need a phone, tablet or computer with a connection.
If the restaurant is already asking for numbers, do not wait for the perfect list. Build the invitation, publish the link and let the confirmations arrive in one place. With a digital invitation from Send The Joy at €29.99, the menu closes on time and the time can change without a reprint. One live link, a list you can read and a dinner scene that tells people what to expect.
