Digital invitation for a christening in Porto: time and menu
Digital invitation: A christening in Porto runs from the parish to the restaurant. Here is where to buy a digital invitation that carries the church time

The parish office calls back on a Tuesday morning: the christening is at 11:30, not twelve. The restaurant in Matosinhos wants the menu closed by Thursday, and the guest list is a photo of a handwritten page saved on your phone. Somewhere in a WhatsApp thread there's a message with the address, another with the change of time, and a third from your aunt asking what to wear.
If you're wondering where to buy digital invitations for a christening in Porto, the answer is online, and you can build and send yours today from the catalogue. The church time, the restaurant address, the lunch time and the confirmations sit on one link you can edit later without sending anything again.
Where to buy digital invitations for a christening in Porto
You buy it the way you buy anything else now. Filter the collection by style, open a design and edit the cover with the child's name and the date before paying anything. If it works, you unlock the rest of the scenes for €29.99: one payment, no subscription. The site runs in seven languages, Portuguese included, and you can set the invitation's content per language — useful when half the family reads Portuguese and the other half reads English or Spanish.
- Have the parish time, the restaurant address and the lunch time written down before you open the editor.
- Try a design for free: type the name, the date and the place on the cover and check how they fit before you pay.
- Upload up to six photos of your own. They frame themselves, and you can swap any of them later.
- Write your own RSVP questions, mark the cover photo, add the music and publish with one button.
Digital invitation vs a PDF: changing the time two weeks out
A PDF sent by WhatsApp keeps the old time forever. Someone forwards it, someone screenshots it, and the version that says twelve o'clock is still going round a fortnight later. The link of a digital invitation is edited after you send it, and it stays the same link. Change the hour, the restaurant, the map, the dress code or one sentence of the text and nobody has to resend a thing: whoever opens the link sees the current version.
That's the end of the 'sorry, it's 11:30' message you'd otherwise send to forty contacts one by one. And the invitation doesn't have to be perfect the day you send it — you'll still be adjusting small things the week of the christening. The restaurant will make sure of that.
RSVPs that arrive as a list, not a chat thread
Confirmations come back inside the invitation, in a list you read from top to bottom. No counting 'yes' reactions in a group chat, no asking your cousin twice. You set the questions on the confirmation form yourself, so the answers you get are the ones you actually use before calling the restaurant back. Guests install nothing: they open the link in the browser on their phone and reply from there.

The parish gives you the hour, the restaurant gives you the table, and one link carries both — with every reply in the same place.
Paper for the grandparents, a link for everyone
This is digital: nothing is printed and nothing goes in the post, and it's better to say that out loud early. If someone in the family wants a card for the drawer, the sensible version is a link for everyone and a few printed copies for whoever keeps things — print those yourself and let the link do the rest. Guests need a phone, a tablet or a computer with a connection, which for a christening lunch in Porto is rarely the sticking point. Open the catalogue, edit the cover free with the name and date, and publish your invitation today for €29.99, one payment.
