Fire Engine Birthday Invitation

About this design

Your guests open a little toy fire engine film with your child's name and age on it. They tap the siren to start: a toy fire engine rolls out of its toy fire station with a toy dalmatian riding on top, the toy siren goes nee-naw, and it races along a play-mat road to the party table, where the ladder goes up. The film stops and they tap the dalmatian. A wall of hose water sweeps across, and your child's invitation appears over the fire engine and the dalmatian by the party table, with the balloons. Then the page opens out below: your child's name and age, the date, time and venue, a countdown, the rescue plan, a live map and a reply form. All on one link you send by WhatsApp, text or email.

🎂 ANY NAME, ANY AGE: type your child's name and the age they're turning, and it's on the film, the page and the printable card. Our demo says Harry is 3; yours says whatever you type, and you can change it any time.

No Canva. No account for your guests. Nothing to install.

RSVP built in. no google form. no spreadsheet.

• Parents reply on the invitation. Nothing for you to build, nothing for them to sign into
• Your dashboard shows who's coming and who can't, who's staying, allergies and notes
• Add your guests from your contacts on Android or iPhone (iPhone adds a small Apple shortcut the first time), or paste them from Notes or a message, and each gets their own link
• Each guest then reads Not sent yet, Sent, Opened, then Coming or Can't make it, so you can see who still needs a nudge
• Replies from the shared link are matched to the guest by name
• One tap writes the reminder for the ones who haven't answered. Day-before, on-the-day and thank-you messages are ready too
• Download the list as a spreadsheet if you want one
