An Arabic and English digital invitation
Many homes have guests who read Arabic and guests who read English. A good invitation does not translate word for word; it writes each language its own way.
In short
An Arabic and English digital invitation at THEEM: the full card set (QAR 550) comes in two versions, the interactive invitation from Basic (QAR 650) opens in the guest's phone language with a toggle, and Standard carries up to three languages. The Arabic is real calligraphy, and the English is written, not translated word for word.
How the two languages work
In an interactive invitation the link opens in the guest's phone language by itself, with a toggle at the top. The date shows in Hijri and Gregorian, the time in the event's own time zone, and the map is one. With the full card set you receive two images: Arabic and English.
The English wording
"يتشرف … بدعوتكم" becomes "… has the honour of inviting you", "حفل الرجال" becomes "the men's celebration" and "حفل النساء" "the ladies' celebration". We write the English in its natural form, and you review it before approval.
The names in calligraphy
The Arabic name in real Arabic calligraphy from seven styles, the English name in a Latin face that suits it. Type both in Design your invitation and see the result before paying.
