Digital invitation for a wedding with pets: 5 ideas
A digital invitation for a wedding with pets has to say who's in, what time the dog arrives and who holds the lead. Here's where each line goes

You've booked the courtyard and the arch is ordered, and then your aunt asks the question you hadn't planned for: 'Is Tomás coming?' Tomás is the dog. He's at the ceremony at six, or maybe he only stays for the drinks, and forty guests now have forty different answers in their heads. A digital invitation for a wedding with pets settles it on one screen, in one line — and you can build and send yours today from the catalogue, before the group chat collects another hundred messages.
The fix isn't a longer invitation. It's putting three facts where people actually look: who's invited, what time the dog arrives, and who's holding the lead.
Your digital invitation says who's in and who waits outside
Put the dog in the same sentence as the hour. 'Tomás meets us at the arch at 6pm, blue ribbon' does more than a paragraph about how much you love animals. If he only shows up for the drinks, say that too: 'Tomás joins at 8pm and heads home after the toast.' Nobody has to ask, and nobody turns up with a surprise Labrador. You don't need a garden plan — a cover photo and one well-placed sentence do the work.
- The dog's name and who takes the lead if he gets nervous.
- Two times, not one: when he arrives and when he leaves.
- Where the water bowl sits and where he can lie down during the long dinner.
- The line that kills the doubt: 'Dogs welcome at the drinks. Not in the dining room.'
The best digital invitations for a wedding with pets name the dog once
One clear mention beats five cute asides. 'Tomás is part of the ceremony' reads better than a 'please, no pets' hidden at the bottom of the last scene. If dogs come to the ceremony but not to dinner, split it: one scene for the arch, one for the long table. Each says one thing, in the place where it matters.
Names go in the text fields, not in the photo: 'Tomás' on the cover, 'Nala and Tomás' on the last-dance scene. You get up to six photos, they frame themselves, and you can swap any of them later without touching a single word.

If the dog is part of the plan, say it as clearly as you say the time of the ceremony.
The RSVP answers 'and the dog?' before anyone asks
Add your own question to the confirmation form — 'Are you bringing a dog? Yes / No' — and the answers land in one ordered list inside the invitation. Guests install nothing: the link opens in the browser on the phone of the cousin who swears PDFs never load. If the drinks move from 8pm to 7.30pm, you edit that scene and the link stays the same, so everyone who opens it sees the new time. Nobody reprints an envelope. If someone wants paper, print two or three copies for the people who'll keep them and send the link to everyone else. Start with the free preview; €29.99 unlocks all scenes when you're ready.
