Product details
A deep black background, gold leaves catching the light, and your names lighting up in golden calligraphy. Opened in the evening on a phone, the effect is striking. An animated save-the-date for weddings that dream of a grand evening.
For a winter wedding, an evening reception, a Gatsby or New Year theme. The whole page switches to dark mode, right down to the countdown. The black and gold animated wedding invitation uses the same setting: your guests will immediately recognise the next chapter of the story.
Fully customisable, no software needed
This design is a starting point. In our online editor, whose link you receive by email right after purchase, you can change the texts, the font, the colours (including your own, with the colour picker), the position of the text, the animation and the order of the sections, from your phone or your computer. No Canva, no account to create, no subscription: a single payment, unlimited guests.
Frequently asked questions
When should I send the save-the-date and the wedding invitation?
The save-the-date goes out 6 to 12 months before the wedding, as soon as the date and the city are set. The wedding invitation follows 3 to 4 months before, with the venue, the programme and a reply deadline, usually a month before the big day so you can confirm the number of guests to the caterer.
How do I create an animated invitation?
In three steps: 1) you choose a design on joli-mot.fr and order it; 2) you receive the link to your online editor by email, where you enter names, date, venue and text, and set the font, colours and photo — allow 5 to 10 minutes, from a phone or a computer; 3) you copy the link to your page or its QR code and send it. No software, no Canva.
Can I edit the invitation after sending it?
Yes, as often as you like for 24 months. The link sent to your guests never changes: if the time of the ceremony moves or you add the programme later, you just correct it in the editor and everyone sees the updated page.
How do I send an animated invitation by WhatsApp?
Copy the link to your page from the editor and paste it into a WhatsApp chat or group: a preview appears with your names and the image of your invitation. The same link works by SMS, email or Messenger. Sending a link to 10 or 300 people doesn’t change the price.
How long does the page stay online?
24 months from purchase, at no extra cost. That is enough to send a save-the-date a year before the wedding and keep the page after the party.
