Bilingual Portuguese and English wedding invitations
Whether the wedding is at a quinta in the Douro Valley, in São Paulo or in Boston, the guest list often splits between people who read Portuguese and people who read English. Wedvitation sends each of them the whole invitation in their own language, Portuguese at one link and English at another.
Two full invitations, a link for each
Choose the invitation's main language and add Portuguese or English as the second for $10. The Portuguese link goes to the family who read Portuguese, the English link to friends and colleagues. Any guest can also switch between the two with a small button in the corner of the invitation.
The design's own text already exists in both languages, so you only write your details — names, venue, address, schedule — once in English and once in Portuguese: “Reception at Quinta das Oliveiras” on one link, «Copo d’água na Quinta das Oliveiras» on the other.
Brazil, Portugal and everywhere in between
Many couples have parents in Portugal or Brazil and friends in London, Toronto or New Jersey; others marry in the Algarve or in Rio with guests flying in who don't read Portuguese. Grandparents open the Portuguese link and read the date and schedule in their own language, friends open the English one, and everyone finds the venue with a single tap in their phone's maps app.
What each guest receives
- An RSVP inside the invitation, no app or account needed
- A button that opens directions to the venue in their own maps app
- Add to calendar, plus a countdown to the wedding day
- Music from our library or a song of your own, and the design's animated opening
- The same link via WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram or email
One dashboard for every reply
A reply from the Portuguese link and a reply from the English link end up in the same dashboard, each with the head count and the guest's message. Download the whole list as a CSV spreadsheet for the caterer or the venue. Guests are unlimited and the invitation has no expiry date.

Questions
Should I send one link or two?
Either works, because every guest can switch language on the invitation. Two links are easier: each guest opens the invitation already in the language they read.
Do I translate the invitation myself?
Only your own details. The design's wording is already written in Portuguese and English; you add names, venue, address and schedule in both.
Can I make a save the date or a bachelorette invitation too?
Yes. There are designs for save the dates, bachelor and bachelorette parties, bridal showers and birthdays, each available in Portuguese and English.
What if some relatives read Spanish?
Add a third language for $10, and a fourth at the same price, each with its own link.
