Alpona

A Bengali wedding, on a swept floor.

Shubho Bibaho

Two families, one courtyard, and a floor drawn before dawn

Draw the Alpona

It is drawn on the floor before dawn. Draw it, and the day is inside.

What is drawn at dawn is gone by dusk, and the house remembers it anyway.

Your details

The layout, colours and artwork are fixed — that is what makes this a premium page. Change the words and the card updates as you type.

The occasion

Whose day it is — a person, a family, a shop.

Optional. Sits above everything.

The cover
When

What the countdown counts to, and the date under the cover.

The reveal
Words
The day

Three lines each — the hour, what happens, and a note — with a blank line between them.

Where

Five lines: the heading, when, the place, its address, and the map. For the map, paste a Google Maps link, or write the place and append its Place ID after an @ so every guest opens the same pin.

Hosts

One line each.

Your photographs

One for each line of Our Story. PNG or JPEG, straight off your phone — they are resized here, in this tab.

Photographs stay on this device. The share link carries your wording inside the link itself, which is what lets it work without an account — but a picture is far too large to travel that way. Guests opening your link see the drawn frames in place of these. Everything else you have typed reaches them exactly as you see it here.

Send the link

The moving version — the seal, the candlelight and a countdown that is still counting when it arrives.

Your invitation travels inside the link itself — nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored. The two names and the date also sit in the readable part of the link, so chats can show a preview; the venue, families and running order do not. It is a long link, and editing this page later will not change one you have already sent — share the new link instead.

A file cannot move or tick: the candlelight is saved as a still, and the countdown as the date it counts to. For the moving version, send the link.
