You call the entertainer for your child's christening and they ask how many children are coming. You read out a number you counted twice in the family WhatsApp group. Then they ask the question that really sets the quote: how old are they? That is the whole christening invitation price conversation in one go, because kids' activities are charged by age band, not by head. And that is where a digital invitation earns its place: you build the page today from the catalogue, send the link tonight, and the ages sit in one list.

The entertainment is usually the biggest line after the meal. Nail the age split before you agree to anything and the rest of the budget behaves. Here is what moves the price, what the invitation can collect for you, and where not to cut.

Kids' entertainment is charged by age band, not per child

An entertainer with four three-year-olds is not doing the same job as one with ten eight-year-olds. The adult-to-child ratio changes, and so does the bag of material: floor games and face paint for the little ones, tables and crafts for the middle group, longer games with rules for the older ones. Two bands in the same afternoon means two blocks of material, and sometimes two people.

  • Three to five: floor games, face paint, a parachute, more adults per child.
  • Six to eight: team games and crafts that need table space.
  • Nine to eleven: longer games, more rules, less supervising but more planning.
  • Brothers and sisters in two bands: two sets of material, sometimes two entertainers.

How much does a digital christening invitation cost with kids' entertainment?

Two prices get mixed up here. One is the entertainer's. The other is the invitation. At Send The Joy it is 29,99 EUR per invitation, paid once, with no subscription, and it is the part that gathers the age of every child before the entertainer packs the bag.

Set the confirmation form with two questions: how many of you are coming, and how old each child is. The answers arrive in one ordered list inside the invitation, not spread across forty WhatsApp messages you have to count again. You can add a third question (ceremony, lunch or both) and change the form after the link has gone out. If you have been weighing up alternatives to paper christening invitations, this is the practical difference: the ages come back with the confirmation, not three phone calls later.

Ask for the ages in the RSVP and you stop guessing at the entertainer's quote.

Changing the time does not mean resending anything

If the entertainer confirms 5:30 pm instead of 5:00, you edit the time and the same link shows the new version to everyone. The cover photo that came out blurry can be swapped after sending. A change of place, map or dress code does not generate a second message. Digital invitations hold one version of the facts, the one you last edited, and the content can be set in Spanish, Catalan, English, French, Italian, Portuguese and German, which helps in Valencia when the grandparents and the cousins from abroad end up at the same table.

Set the budget before you choose the design

Fix what does not move first: the font, the time of the ceremony and the entertainment block. What is left goes to the table and the details. If the entertainer takes the big slice, the invitation does not have to be the cut: 29,99 EUR, one payment, no subscription. Three scenes are enough for a christening, one for the ceremony, one for the meal, one for the goodbye. Edit the cover in the free trial without paying, publish with one button, and have the ages in front of you before you call the entertainer back.
