Digital invitation price: gender reveal colour smoke

You've got the date, the garden and the person who fires the colour smoke. What you don't have is a number for the announcement. For a gender reveal with colour smoke, the price question splits in two: the smoke is hired from the supplier who runs the effect, and the invitation is bought from a catalogue. A digital invitation costs 29.99 EUR, one payment, and you can put yours together and send it today.

Here's what sits inside that 29.99 EUR, what to ask the smoke supplier before you sign anything, and how to keep the two budgets from blurring into one.

How much does a digital invitation for a gender reveal cost?

One price, closed: 29.99 EUR per invitation. Single payment, no subscription, no monthly fee, and the figure doesn't move when you swap the wording or add your own photos. The colour smoke is a separate invoice with the person who handles the effect, so ask for that number in writing before you lock the date. It's the line that changes most, and it's the one nobody puts in the group chat.

• The announcement: 29.99 EUR, one payment, edited from the browser, sent as a link, a QR code or a message.
• The smoke: quoted by the supplier. Ask how many charges are included, who fires them, whether the colour is chosen on the day and at what time exactly.
• Try before paying: in trial mode you edit the cover for free; buying unlocks every scene of the invitation.
• Paper: not included. If someone wants a copy in hand, print two or three at a local shop and send the link to everyone else.

What the 29.99 EUR digital invitation includes, and what it doesn't

You get a web page for your event, not a PDF and not an image that disappears into someone's camera roll. It goes out as a link, a QR code or a ready-to-send message. Inside there's room for up to six of your own photos, one marked as the cover and the rest decorative, plus music and the RSVP questions you decide on. Confirmations land in an ordered list inside the invitation itself, so nobody has to chase replies over WhatsApp. Digital invitations in the catalogue also let you set the language of the content, which helps when half the family reads in English and the other half doesn't.

What doesn't come inside is paper: no printing, no envelopes. And the page isn't frozen once it's out. If the supplier moves the smoke from 18:00 to 19:30, or the venue changes, or you want a different dress code line, you edit it and the link stays the same. Guests see the updated version when they open it. No reprints, no second round of messages.

The smoke is hired. The invitation is bought once, and it keeps working when the timing moves.

Why a digital invitation suits a colour-smoke gender reveal

A reveal lives on a secret: you send the link only to the people who should know, and you fill in the names, the date, the phrase and the place field by field, with a character count so nothing spills over. The colour is the whole point, so the cover photo can be replaced afterwards if the smoke comes out a shade nobody expected. Guests install nothing: they open the link in the browser on their phone, tap confirm, and you watch the list fill up. Start with the free trial, publish with one button when the colour is decided, and leave the smoke budget to the smoke.
