Digital invitation: sealed-envelope gender reveal

You can create and send a digital invitation for a sealed-envelope gender reveal today from the catalogue. Picture the table: the envelope is sitting between the bread basket and your cousin Marta’s phone, and someone asks for the fifth time whether it is a boy or a girl. The page can answer the date, the time and the address. It should not answer that one.

That is the split that works for gender reveal invitations with a sealed envelope. The envelope keeps the secret; the digital invitation keeps the plan. You send the link now, the envelope stays shut until the toast, and nobody has to install an app to find out what time dinner starts.

The secret stays in the sealed envelope, not in the wording

The label on the page does one job: it points to the envelope without giving the answer. Use the exact line “There is an envelope. It opens at the toast.” Then stop. The rest of the page confirms the date, time and place, and names the person who is holding it. That last detail saves you from replying to the same message all week.

• Put the label in one field: “There is an envelope. It opens at the toast.” Do not write “boy” or “girl” anywhere — not in the phrase, not in the photo captions, not in the RSVP question.
• Name the envelope keeper in the welcome scene: “Marta has had it since Tuesday.” It is specific, and it cuts off the group-chat guessing.
• Add the toast time to the dinner scene: “The envelope opens here, 9:30 pm.” Guests read it while they order the first round.
• For anyone who will not use the link, plan a phone call on the day. The secret depends on who tells it, not on the connection.

How to create a digital invitation for a sealed-envelope gender reveal

Set the toast time inside the dinner scene, not on the cover. A line like “the envelope opens here” sits next to the 9:30 pm start, so a guest sees it on their phone while the table is still deciding on starters. The cover should be the welcome, the names and the date — nothing that gives the secret away.

Use chained scenes such as a limewash threshold → a long dinner → a last dance. Put the envelope moment in the second scene, never on the first screen, so nobody discovers it the second the link opens. Guests open the link in their phone browser, with the music and the confirmation questions already inside. No app to install, no PDF.

The envelope holds the answer. The digital invitation holds the plan.

What to write in each field of your digital invitations

Use one field per fact — label, names, date, phrase and place — and let the character counter keep “Come and toast a secret that already has a name” whole. Of the six photos, keep the ultrasound off the cover and put it in the final scene after the toast. Set the RSVP question as “Are you staying for the toast?” rather than “boy or girl?”, so the form does not leak the answer. Send the link to the family group and put a QR on the table for the friend who deleted the message. This is digital, so it does not print or post paper; if someone wants a keepsake, combine the link for everyone with a few printed copies you arrange yourself. Confirmations arrive in one ordered list inside the invitation, so you know how many envelopes to put on the table. If the restaurant moves the booking from 9:00 pm to 9:30 pm, edit the invitation and the link stays the same; no reprints, no one-by-one messages.
